I have a 2008 gen 2 Prius with an original NiMH battery.
The battery is aging and milage is not what it used to be. Has anyone had experience replacing these batteries with lithium cells, or perhaps running a lithium battery in parallel with the existing battery?
I'm also looking at options to convert to a plug in hybrid.
I've done some research, there are a few off the shelf solutions, but these seem to be put of stock or don't ship to Australia.
Has anyone done a diy replacement for the prius battery? Keen to understand how difficult it would be, any information is appreciated.
