Thanks for all you've done so far Ali, and thanks for sharing. I think this is potentially the most interesting thread on this site - ever!

The rebuild has started. HV and LV junction boxes removed Dumped in a box I was never happy with the previous design that kinda evolved as I learned more about what I needed. I had LV components in the HV JB which is an obvious no no, and...

Off the Freelander EV topic, but keeping with electric LRs. Today I saw a D3 which was sporting a "Fully Electric" sticker across the rear window. Unfortunately the owner wasn't about to chat too, but if a D3 can be electrified, then I'm pretty...

It could be confusing for a first time reader of this thread. I must admit that I'm interested in this zombi VCU, as I'm wondering if it could made to work with other vehicles, like the Freelander 2, maybe? I think prices of batteries and dead...

It works 😊 I called into a Tesco in Lisburn Co Antrim today, plugged it in, pressed the charge start button and it started charging straight away👏

So after a couple of weeks procrastinating I finally made time to try and figure out how to make the charger work at a commercial EVSE which the setup above failed to achieve. It works great at home but commercial chargers require a low...
