Nissan Leaf battery pack

[CroDriver]

48 modules
Each module contains 4 cells
48 series/4 parallel? (I would say 96 series / 2 parallel)
192 cells
600 pounds

24 kWh
100 miles range (I guess more like 70 in real life)

Soooo, where's the BMS?

They should sell them only to drunk drivers.


Because I want as many in the wrecking yard as possible to salvage the batteries from them!

Hehe, good idea

You really think that those batteries (I mean the cells only) are better than the one we have available (Headway and A123)?

Maybe they are space saving but I doubt that they can give high currents...

No clue. I bet they are decent stuff, and I bet they can make a light and compact battery, and I bet I will be able to pick-up packs from wrecks for a couple grand from wrecking yards.
