Pollution reduction is one of the primary goals of the fuel cell. By comparing a fuel cell–powered car to a gasoline engine–powered car and a battery-powered car, you can see how fuel cells might improve the efficiency of cars today. Since all three types of cars have many of th...
Vehicle: 2007 Prius Model: Touring iskoos said: ↑ I was charging a spare module once with a hobby charger and one of the modules started puffing slightly. The voltage was barely 8.4volts. I stopped the charge and let the pack cool down. Then put it in a fridge for 15-20 minutes...
Matt and his team have an ongoingwaitlist of LEAFsthat want battery replacements. Many of the drivers have found him throughthe Nissan LEAF Battery Replacement Group. Apart from LEAFs, the shop gets a lot of Prius and Volt battery work since they were the only other EVs on the road ten y...
This is defined as power output per kg of mass (per kg of the energy storage medium. for example: per kg of batteries). It can be calculated by dividing power output by weight. Power density is measured in W/kg (watts per kg). It is how many watts of power a 1kg battery can pro...
They're even on top of a few cars. In 2019, Toyota began outfitting the Prius Prime with solar battery panels on its roof, hood, and rear hatch door. Altogether, those panels are slated to provide up to 27.6 miles (44.4 kilometers) of electric power daily, says Green Car Reports. ...
For the Volt, GM settled on a design that was neither a Prius-style hybrid nor a pure electric car but something in between called an extended-range electric vehicle. The setup would combine a plug-in battery strong enough to serve as the car’s main power train, plus a motor with a ...
but powerful electric motor that pushes the pads against the rotor. Many of these systems work best with higher voltages (such as 42 volts) - which means electro-mechanical systems will probably remain on the shelf until auto makers decide whether or not changing to 42 volts is really necessar...
This reaction in a single fuel cell produces only about 0.7 volts. To get this voltage up to a reasonable level, many separate fuel cells must be combined to form a fuel-cell stack. Bipolar plates are used to connect one fuel cell to another and are subjected to both oxidizing and reduci...
2021 Prius Model: Limited I use an Optimate 5 battery tester and maintainer that I hook up once a month. My current 12V is only 2 years old, so still in good shape. I have it on the maintainer right now in fact, and I tested the voltage before hooking up at 12.23 volts at 42 de...
