i don't seem able to edit my post, so i'll just add another.

The "Green" version is their first approach using Lithium Iron Phosphate cells. They are showing 16 modules, or "Blades" in this pack, so how many cells do you think are in a module or the pack?

i think 7 cells per module is too few and 8 per module is too many depending upon how high you charge the cells. Last time i messed with LFP the full cell voltage was about 3.33; there is no benefit to overcharge them except to reduce their life. There is little to no useful energy available above full, if you look at the discharge curve it drops faster than panties at a frat house party.

There are a few companies here in the US, Fenix Power turned out to be a failure/scam and there is a place in Oregon that does these. But you would have to be super into you older Leaf to do this vs. buying a new one. I had 2011 that was next to worthless and Fenix power took it for 2 years supposed to use as a test mule and they did nothing!! But if someone could do this for 5-7k they would have a lot of customers. But at 10k I would move on and buy a new car.
