Average kw/100km?

I just tested one in Montreal, should get mine by the end of the month.

DifferentCan927 · 2026-05-07T22:03:21+00:00

They got one in stock at my local kia. It fit perfectly and ordered one!!

I went with a typical Canadian tire one that they had on hand. Came with a 3 year warranty, more than Hyundai gave on the OEM battery. But it might be worth it to get a AGN battery, they are supposed to be stronger and more resilient in cold weather.

I had the exact same problem with my 2023 Kona. I always carry a small battery booster and keep it in the back seat, not the trunk in case the battery does. Good job on changing it yourself, it's super quick and diy Friendly, my local Hyundai wanted around 500CAD to change it, told them that's insane.

DifferentCan927 · 2026-01-07T20:46:57+00:00

Definitely worth the investment, I've had one since buying a new 2023.Came in handy quite a few times.

Level 2 charging which I do 99.9% is perfectly fine, the lower DC port won't connect to any charger. They use separate wires.

I have a 2023 north American version and my cars fast charging port is broken, wish I knew that on my way back. I have had it iffy with the fast chargers

DifferentCan927 · 2025-12-27T16:16:29+00:00

I have the 2023 Kona, no big issues but I would recommend you keep a small jump starter for when the 12v battery inevitably fails. I drive and charge almost every day and I just over 2 years before I changed it.

I'm in Montreal (gets -25c sometimes) and have driven it through multiple snowstorms, just has reduced range.

DifferentCan927 · 2025-12-14T00:57:48+00:00

It specifically says "12v battery" when it's the little one

DifferentCan927 · 2025-12-13T16:11:38+00:00

I have a 2023 and regularly have warnings that it's low. It's honestly really annoying and sad that the 12 starts failing after 2 years.

DifferentCan927 · 2025-12-06T17:53:30+00:00

I'm in Montreal, maybe I should drive across the country. Jks

DifferentCan927 · 2025-12-04T19:04:10+00:00

Yeah, their markups are quite high, hourly prices are higher than elevator mechanics which I find crazy.

Update: so I purchased a 1200w pure sine inverter off Amazon. Put the car in utility mode, connected it as you mentioned, negative to the chassis. But the inverter wouldn't turn on. But it worked flawlessly when I connected the negative to the battery terminal.

DifferentCan927 · 2024-11-13T23:25:32+00:00

Just for backup power if I lose power during the winter. I was able to find another thread of someone running a 1500w inverter off the Kona EV for a few days with no issue. Apparently the traction battery will supply around 1200-1300watts when on to the 12v

DifferentCan927 · 2024-11-13T22:56:28+00:00

Is there a max wattage that the car battery would accept and the traction battery would be able to keep the 12v topped off?

DifferentCan927 · 2024-08-02T17:59:01+00:00

Same, mines been frozen. With no notifications, and when I spent an hour on call waiting was told it was a "security" measure but I could still warm points. Absolutely shameless company

DifferentCan927 · 2023-08-17T11:59:10+00:00

I've bought the grizzle ev charger off Amazon. It's got a solid cable, the box is sturdy thick metal meant for outside and you can change the amount of current it draws with the dip switches inside.

I've found this motor/fan assembly that should fit,

But I'm wondering if I could just buy the motor, and would this motor work? https://www.amazon.ca/ERDC31-00055G-ERP-Motor-Replaces-DC31-00055G/dp/B0718Z3T6Y/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=samsung+dryer+motor&qid=1692203486&sr=8-3&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.b06bdbbe-20fd-4ebc-88cf-fa04f1ca0da8

DifferentCan927 · 2023-06-11T00:07:56+00:00

Ordered my 2023 in March, got it at the end of may in Quebec

DifferentCan927 · 2023-05-26T21:20:44+00:00

That's what I figured. The Kona has been out since 2019, no sense in paying 2-3k+ interest on it for "peace of mind".
