This is the home of the PRIUS+ PHEV DIY (Do-it-Yourself) documentation. These pages are currently anonymously editable, which may change in the future. Please feel free to use the Discussion page for general discussion and commentary on the main article. If you would like to add to an existing section use the "edit" link near that topic's heading. Don't forget to use the Summary field to describe your changes. While editing use the "Show Preview" button to make sure your changes look like you expect them to, before you click "Save Page". |
This page houses all raw materials which have been uploaded for various people to work with and incorporate into documentation on the other pages. Add new documents to the list below and organize them if at all possible.
Image files can be easily linked to by placing a ":" after the "[[", otherwise the image will be shown. If you want the image to appear then after the images name add "|thumb" to create a thumbnail for it, use "|200px" to specify a size other than the default, and use "|caption text" to describe the image as the last element before the closing "]]".
Other non-image files such as .pdf, .doc, .xls, .etc can be linked to with the same "[[Image:" type link or with a [[Media:" link. The :Image link will take you to the files page with a description of the file, list of pages on which it's used, and of course a link to the file itself. The Media link will instead take you directly to that file without visiting the files page first. See some examples in the "Intro Editing Help" section below.

Photos
You can browse the entire gallery of images here at the eaa-phev site,
or visit some other galleries with potentially applicable photos:

Photos from Chris Ewert's Conversion
These are photos that User:Cewert has shared with us of his conversion via the CalCars PriusPlus method.
Photos from 2007 Maker Faire
Some photos from the 2007 Maker Faire conversion.
Alternative Mounting Method
This is very much a work-in-progress. There may be unresolved design flaws with this method. More details and photos to follow.
The battery box can optionally be mounted forward and lower which allows more components to be installed in the spare tire well, maximizing usable trunk space. The charger can be located below the battery pack, and the electronics and electrical wiring are lowered and partially under the battery pack. This method allows the conversion to be completely below the false floor and may also provide some benefit for stability and/or safety.
The four battery trays are assembled the same way as on the PriusPlus-Mechanical page. The trays are supported by 4 aluminum angle irons which sit on rubber mounts that sit directly on the steel trunk of the Prius. The supports are held in place by 2 steel angle irons bolted (or welded) to the trunk and 2 brackets anchoring into the OEM battery supports.
- 2 modified I-beam hangers (normally used for mounting electrical conduits to I-beams) are modified and bolted onto the supports for the battery box and both hold the forward most support angle iron in place (does not hold weight) and provides a bolt down point for the top of the battery box.
- All support angle irons are offset from the trunk of the car by rubber pads (about 1/4 inch thick)
- One of the pegs for mounting the OEM SmartKey sensor in the trunk can also be used to hold the forward most support angle in place.
- The middle 2 angles are bolted together on the ends and in the middle and are held in place by bolts from the battery box top.
- The rear most support angle is mounted by 2 1 1/2 inch steel angle irons welded to the trunk. Holes are drilled on the outside of where the trays sit and are bolted through the angle iron and the aluminum angle iron on both sides.
- Steel angle irons with a hole and a bolt welded (or bolted) to one side are used to provide mounting points for the battery box top.
- Battery box top bolts down into steel angle irons which are bolted onto the support angle irons. Front battery box top bolts down into modified I-beam hangers.
OEM battery support bolts are metric 8mm diameter, 1.25 thread bolts. A bolt with a 30mm length seems to be the ideal length for a replacement. The OEM bolts appear to be about 20mm in length.
The battery box cannot block easy access to the OEM orange emergency disconnect.
Older PriusPlus Images
Coming soon some photos from Rons original PriusPlus History conversion which may still be applicable to this project...
General Reference Materials
These are some other General Reference Materials we use elsewhere on the site. This is also an example of how to use references within the page text. See PiPrius conversion process for another example of a page with multiple reference tages.

ToDo
Stuff to be imported/uploaded:
Intro Editing Help
File Specific Help
File link Examples, click the edit button for this section to see how it works.
Text Links:
- Using :Image takes you to the Images description page:
- Using Media takes you directly to the file:
- You can use a | to change the text of the link to something more descriptive.
Inline resized images:
Thumbnails:
- Thumbnail tag will embed the image inline such that text will wrap arround the image. The image will be alligened to the right by default or can be forced with a "|center" or "|left" tag. Thumbnails should also include some caption as their last "|caption element". Notice that the image code is placed above this text so that the text and image begin at the same place.
The {{Clear}} template can be used to force empty white space after a thumbnail before continuing with the next block of text.

Raw Large
- The raw image will be shown in a large size so probably shouldn't be used within a document like this. Rather visitors should click on a smaller image, thumbnail, or link to see the Images page, from there they can use a link to get the fill sized original image.
General Help
Intro Paragraph here maybe with a link to the main PriusPlus article, links to external sites can appear as formatted CalCars, just plain URLs like http://www.calcars.com, or fancy references such as that in the next paragraph.
Another Paragraph and such, you can get help at our Help:Contents#How do I use the Wiki Website page <ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents more help using the wiki.</ref> Feel free to simply remove or if you like move all of this example text to the pages discussion article.
