<html><head></head><body><div style="font-family: Verdana;font-size: 12.0px;"><div>Hi,<br/>
<br/>
Great! Figured it's time to introduce myself as initially suggested by Michael.<br/>
<br/>
My name is Jaunius Kapkan.<br/>
<br/>
I have 2013 leaf for over 3 years now with 107k km and ~70 SOH.<br/>
<br/>
I am familiar with low level networking and dissecting packets on wireshark. But don’t have much experience with CAN communication. I work with Bash, Python, Javascript, HTML daily, but have no problems using other languages when needed.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>My goal is to make some cool stuff for my Leaf and if possible make it compatable for use with other cars. All during my spare time.<br/>
<br/>
Current Projects:</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Local Climate Control Timer. </strong>
<ul>
<li>Story:
<ul>
<li>Built-in Timer only works if connected to the charger and only has 2 timers available.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Features:
<ul>
<li>Unlimited amount of timers (as long as RAM allows it)</li>
<li>Unrestricted CC operation time</li>
<li>Ability to set all timers in GUI by implementing it as plugin</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Status:
<ul>
<li>Backend module done. Now Testing & working onthe frontend.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Heating Assist</strong>
<ul>
<li>Story:
<ul>
<li>My PTC Heater fried so I have bought a 2x 200W 12V PTCs for 30 EUR in total (meanwhile original replacement unit is 400-800 EUR) and put them in the old heater's place. I connected them trough relay, but did not want to control them manually. So I have wired the relay switch to ext12v power output of the OVMS.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Features:
<ul>
<li>Each 5 seconds script checks if the heater is on and if so it will engage the ext12v power and vice-versa.</li>
<li>Still thinking if GUI is needed for this, very limited usage for others.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Status:
<ul>
<li>Initial module done. Now beta testing. </li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<div>Future Development:</div>
<div>One of the first things after these two is to make smart charge JS module/plugin to charge battery to specific % for specific departure time. The goal here is to have the battery sitting at high SOC the least possible amount of time.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Once I believe it's safe ENOUGH for others to use these plugins/modules I will make them open source.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Meanwhile you can follow me on twitter (boring..) <a href="https://twitter.com/mjkapkan" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/mjkapkan</a></div>
<div>And also I just created a youtube channel where I will be posting videos of my experience with EV & Solar projects.</div>

<div> </div>
<div>PS: My initial plan was to work on the iOS app, but it seems that one needs to have a MAC for that (and I don't). I am just a Linux Lover that happens to own an iPhone :).</div>

<div>Feel free to reach out!</div>

Warmly,<br/>
Jaunius</div></div></body></html>
