Does this charger work on a Nissan Leaf? i just purchased the A2Z CS-1 to CHAdeMo. Still not as many CS-1 as Tesla destimation chargers. perhaps I should have purchased the tesla adapter. its 1/8 the price. thank you
AWD version with CATL batteries was the wrong decision to begin with. You should have bought FWD with Panasonic batteries. Sorry to hear you left the toyota Family😢
Thanks for reviewing and posting about the bz4x, this and earlier videos. I'm coming from a 2019 Tesla model 3 and considering getting a 2023 bz4x limited with about 38k miles. I dont really need the fast charging and I've even lived with a Ford Focus EV with 50miles range as a daily driver. Totally I've been on EVs for about 9 years now. So I think I have the right expectation for the bz4x. Any gotchas I should watch out for 2023 bz4x limited with 38k miles, for about USD26k? One of our reasons for the switch is the space (toddler and infant) and how bad the ride quality is in the Tesla M3. Other option is Tesla MY, which I think would be best to go with a brand new rather than a used. Then I'm not really comparing the same $$ value. Anyways - thanks!!
@@MrAbrek777 thank you! I'm doing a new tutorial soon for a new dashcam install on the bz4x (Front and rear cam VIOFO). Should be up in a few weeks, stay tuned!
Great job guy! I do this kind of thing on a much smaller scale but would never attempt this. Can it be done on the 2024 Rav4 XSE hybrid? I don't see a spare button where you found yours but do see like a spate strip at the controls to adjust the mirror angles.
I saw this video yesterday, and it's really amazing, I have a question about the Tesla charger you showed, how can I buy the Tesla car charger part that you showed us. Any link, Thanks
@@indikajayasinghe623 You can only use that adapter for level 2 chargers and cant be used at Tesla superchargers. Here's the link : a2zevshop.com/collections/charging-adapters/products/a2z-stellar-plug?ref=EVDUDE
@@EVDude thank you for all your help. You make great videos and it is greatly appreciated. Have you or anybody tried to install fog lights on a BZ? On another note, I have gotten as high as 127 kWh charging on a DC fast charger here in Las Vegas.
Can I ask is that the Toyota OEM hitch and did they install that from factory or dealer? Im awaiting delivery of a 2024 RAV4 Prime XSE and deciding on what hitch I want in it.
@@Noypi54494 It is indeed the Toyota OEM hitch and it was installed at the dealer. The OEM hitch sits higher than the third party ones since it comes out of the bumper (needs to be cut).
@@Noypi54494 how did it go? How do you deal with the rear camera and the brake sensors? Toyota is installing a hitch and harness on my 2021 RAV4 Prime next week. When I called they said no OEM available. Shopping for a rack for 4 bikes now.
@@grisellemontanez5369 On our 2021 Highlander Hybrid I could disable the RCTA that would work whenever I had a bike hitch on. You will love your Rav4 Prime I only drove it 2 hours back home from dealer and it is amazing. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do.Good Luck!
@@grisellemontanez5369 I just picked it up earlier today and I love it so far. Drove it 2 hours from dealer to home. So regarding rear brake sensor, on our 2021 Highlander Hybrid I could turn off the sensor so it wouldn't abruptly brake on its own and Im expecting the same ability to turn off system on the R4P. I'm excited for you! You'll love it. Good Luck
I did prefer the R4P to the BZ4X, as a primary car. But our primary car is a Tesla Model Y and the BZ4X is our secondary car. I prefer the Model Y to the R4P 😅
Thanks for the decent explanation. Is it safe to connect both charger probes to the battery itself? Shouldn’t the positive probe be connected to the battery and the negative be connected to the body (ground)? I suppose it would mitigate any risks to the electronics and the charger controller within the computer.
We own two Ioniq 5s, and we live in an apartment. I get free charging at work as an employee perk. So I V2L to recharge my spouses EV overnight in the parking lot. I wish there was a V2V adapter that essentially combined thr V2L and a level 1 EVSE together into one seamless plug. It would mean less entry points for water.
That looked really smooth and easy, bro. I paid almost 450$ for them to do just the installation and after 6 months now my dashcam keeps restarting or doesn't even turn on so I'm just using direct cigarette outlet sadly .
Hi EVDude. Are you interested in reviewing VANTRUE N4 Pro dash cam? If yes, please provide me with your email address so we can contact you. Thanks anyway
Nice choice. Charging BZ4X AWD 2024 at top speed is still an enigma. Once at 63 ambient air temp I got 92 kw. Another day similar temps speed was much lower. Different location but still EvGo 350 kw.
I think the 12 volt battery charges when the car is in EV ready mode. If you are worried about the level of charge in the 12 volt battery can't you just turn on the car in EV ready mode and leave it parked. I think it will charge the 12 volt battery and turn itself off after one hour.
You definitely can. The DC-DC converter charges the 12V in Ready Mode, but if you dont want to leave your car turned on, a smart charger is the way to go.
@@EVDude I do this once or twice per week while it is parked in my garage. I am not sure home much charge is gained since the car turns itself off after one hour You might want to do a video explaining this and letting us know it how much charge is gained after one hour. Great video by the way.
Yes you can with the Room mode turned on but your charging speed will be affected. This vehicule has been engineered in a very bad way. Instead of pulling more energy for the heat pump, it sacrifices charging power.
transfer switch in Canada is a scam! There is no need to isolate the panel neutral from the generator neutral, as long as the 2 grid hots are disconnected at the panel, the panel will NOT feed anything into the grid through the neutral since the circuit is NOT complete! a breaker interlock must be legal in Canada, since it is completely legal in the USA and the USA NEC standard is superior to the Canada EC standard, but I don't understand the lame reason the Canadian authorities have for not allowing breaker interlocks: they say IF the panel cover is removed THEN the breaker interlock becomes useless, but the whole idea of breaker interlock is to prevent accidental back feeding! but if someone intentionally back feeding the grid CAN do it ANYWAYS! all they need is an OUTLET! someone opening the panel cover better know what they are doing so cannot back feed the grid accidently. Canadians codes are outdated and ridiculous! must be changed to match the USA NEC standard.
Thanks for the video, so I have a friend and says that the charger that came with the car doesn’t work. Is there something you need to press in order to work ?
There is no “negative” inside the fuse box. One side always has power (the feed side) and the other gets its power through the fuse. The negative is the body/chassis of the vehicle.
