Hey all. Regarding batteries, I was doing some research for another project and while looking for battery solutions, I discovered that you can get batteries from the Nissan eleaf for a few hundred bucks (used) 3.5 kw storage, 24 volts etc. You guys think this would be a good fit for an echarger?

OFT Tune

Which version OFT is everyone running? I'm running the original 2.0 tune I believe from 2014 and saw there is a 4.0 tune now. Any benefit in trying to upgrade to 4.0?

Volt Meter

Does anyone know where I could get the volt meter/on off switch? I've been searching and haven't been able to find one. Mine died today, but it appears it's just the display.

Since YoSpeed and MTEC are no longer producing these, is there another manufacturer/vendor that is producing them?

Not as far as I've heard, although you can find boilerplate/ready-made ones on various sites on the net from Aliexpress, Amazon, and Ebay.

Bummer. This is the only one I like. The other ones don't flush out/don't have the texture or color that I'm looking for. Let me know when you're done with yours.

I saw those but was hoping to find one with an on/off switch like the kit came with. I figured one would have popped right up somewhere online but nothing matching the one in the kit so far.

I have a kit for sale if anyone is interested. I had professional cabling made for RHD so would be ideal for anyone in UK, Australia or NZ. (Comes with original LHD cables)

I also have a Procede Controller and OFT.

Or you could be an innovator and twin charge it with the sprintex and phantom. Just need to run a Y merged coupler pre MAF so at high rpm its not a restriction. Would be crazy low end torque.

Since I plan on running twin phantoms I want to go back to having a full size batter in the car rather than the Odyssey. But the smaller batteries won't since I'll have to run four batteries. My plan is to have them in the trunk and run wire to the front. My question is. Would it be safe for me to use jumper cables wires?

Run the full size in the back and the smaller batteries up front.

Why not do it right with the proper wire/cable? Technically jumper cables would work but probably not ideal and may not be safe.

EWCS 1/0 Gauge Premium Extra Flexible Welding Cable 600 Volt Combo Pack - Black+Red 15 Feet of Each - Made in the USA

Something like that should work.
