    Today we're going to do a complete teardown of our Nissan Leaf 40kWh battery pack. We're going to dismantle this pack fully, right down to the individual battery modules.
    After last weeks video looking at the intact battery pack, today we're going to take apart this Nissan Leaf Battery Pack and see what it's made of. This will allow us to then start redesigning the pack so it fits into our Electric Porsche 911.
    About the control system we're using:
    The board I have chosen is the "Open Inverter" logic board with a Nissan Leaf adaptor board. Full details of this open source inverter can be found here:
    openinverter.org
    And the boards are available to purchase through the shop.
    The one I am using is:
    openinverter.o...
    There is also a community growing around these and associated boards built on the same architecture and software here.

    I have no association to this other than liking the design and simplicity of the product and I will let you all know how I get on with the boards in future videos.

    We do builds and projects with electric motors and on electric vehicles, with a focus on electric car conversions. The automotive world is moving towards electric cars at a great pace, but a lot of these are focussed on the mass market or are very expensive performance vehicles.
    We want to see what can be done to create our own performance electric cars using the currently available components. We'll take you through every step of our projects (both successes and failures.)
    Please come and join us on this journey.
    A note on this channel.
    While we try to make these videos as informative as possible, these are not instructions or how to videos. Working with high voltage electrical components is very dangerous and can injure, maim or kill. The same goes for working on cars and motorbikes. If these videos have inspired you to take on an EV project of your own, and we hope they have, we would encourage you to undertake the necessary study, education, training and/or investigations to familiarize yourself with tasks you are undertaking. Thanks for watching and we hope you have enjoyed the video.

    Really informative video, thanks. Love the level of detail.

    Yeah, I'm sure those dish washing gloves will stop 400 volts.

    Great work, did you notice how nice the hardware is designed and made? The bolts have an unthreaded tip so that they go into the terminals and don't fall out. I'm looking forward to your box design. Also are you going to hack the original BMS? If so please go into detail :-)

      Yeah, it was all really nicely designed and logically put together. After all the rusted bolts on the Porsche, this was great, more like working on a computer than on a car:-) hoping to reuse the BMS, but still figuring out how to go about that, but rest assured, I will do a video on it.

    Once you have drawn it out, would you consider sharing the pin out details for the BMS please. Soon, I will have all the internal wiring and parts from an e-NV200 battery, but no cells, so I will not have the luxury of seeing it assembled and detailing it. I am putting a 96S4P set of 60 amp hour pouches into my own battery box, then wiring it all exactly as original van, for circa 90kwh, so any help making sure I get it right would be appreciated !

    Good work Shane. How much did the battery pack cost you to purchase?

    Wow! Great progress. I finally got my Leaf motor to spin last week. The last hurdle was needing 240Volts minimum for the stock controller. Using the openInverter allows you more options. I found the Motor will only spin to 3500 RPMs in reverse. Lol. Keep up the great work. How do you make the high-speed video. Is that regular video sped up, or what? Thanks..

      Nice Pantera Bill! You should start a RUclips channel.

    looking good .. no more need for the rubber gloves?.

      Thanks, once I had the pack figured out I was comfortable with progressing without them as I could see any areas of risk and avoid them.

    This guy has such a deer in the headlights look. Maybe throw back a 40 before filming, so you feel a little more comfortable in front of the camera, lol.
