Thanks Dala for mentioning Havrla. He recently performed the upgrade of my 60 aH Rex to a 120 aH (still with Rex..). He picked up the car at my place, drove it 1000km to his home to do the job and delivered it back 3 days later in front of my door. Naturally, this has a price). It is difficult to explain how happy this made me as I have now the best of both worlds. Driving moderate, I got 350km from 1 charge (no a/c, no highway, warm weather). That’s much more than I expected. Off course, winter or highway will be a different story. Havlra is a very competent person and on top of it he’s a nice and very reliable guy with lots of interesting stories to tell.

There should be law in EU that requires car companies to provide replacement batteries and possible software to do the replacement. It would be environmentally friendlier when people can repair their cars cheaper. And that would make more sensible for car companies to use same batteries as rival companies when battery is not source of control and money.

Hello Dala, thanks for your work here on yt! I'm wondering if it makes any sense to buy a cheap i3 (60ah) and do an upgrade to 120. I have no idea about the approximate costs and the range you could get with an 120 ah upgrade. I saw a claim from Lion Light Batteries and a PoC for an own developed 100kWh battery with a 700km range. Sick. After some research it looks like the battery is not yet available and maybe will never see day of light since BMW is one of their customers. Anyway, let me know, I'm looking forward to get some advise! Thank you

@@DalasEVRepair Why? The BMS usually only care about Voltage and Delta-Voltage. As the pack ages, the capacity decreases, so it won't keep trying to reach "21kWh" (18.8kWh usable)... no, it will just limit charge until the peak Voltage is reached... then the Charge Current decreases to the appropriate level. Substituting the 94Ah modules in place of the 60Ah modules should work... but I would also keep the all of the original 60Ah BMS modules that were in the 60A pack... so that everybody already knows everybody... and they should be able to play together nicely... just longer-per-charge. I have to believe someone out there has tried this... but I just found a locked 90Ah pack for cheap... and it might be worth the try.

Note pag oil: If you release/drain the refrigerant and disconnect the lines at the battery pack you will not find any oil and should not have to refill. Pag oil is SP-2A and most resides in the compressor. Pumping down vacuum, allowing water to boil off, and refilling with R1234YF is very simple.

Exact reason why EV are dead branch of development.

this sounds like the easiest way to upgrade since the cells in the battery, and in the modules are DUMB, they have no technology other than battery technology, no microprocessors, you can simply find a cell which has the same chemistry and the same or smaller dimensions and terminal placement and pop them in there; I don’t know what’s in it and I don’t know what would fit, but it probably you can probably get larger Ah cells independently and just replace the cells with higher capacity cells

Why are you wearing a mask inside a hepa filtered vehicle?

Precautionary but otherwise useless for non EU.

Who needs AC anyways

Вы так много рассказали как трудно поменять батарею. Я смотрел видео, ребята из России в гараже поменяли и всё у них прекрасно работает, да проблемы были при установки, но они смогли их решить! 😉 kzread.info/dash/bejne/d4SZmbCmprSshLA.html

Oh god why cover your face in your car, alone, in the middle of nowhere while recording a Video..? 🤦🏽‍♂️

Battery swaps aside, the biggest mystery is what kind of person would sit in their car with a mask on, even more so for the sake of a video 🤔🤔

Dude in the car with a mask pfff you are a good sheep

Masks were an elaborate and well executed practical joke. Lol

Are you really wearing a mask by yourself alone in the car? 😂
