About this part
Winter is here, and we Nissan LEAF owners gotta stick together just to stay warm. I know that gets awkward, so this year, let's try something different. We can supplement our heat with just a low wattage desktop heater. In the enclosed space of a car, this is even better because the heat stays inside!
My estimated miles were dropping like zombies on the Walking Dead every time I turned on the heat in my Nissan LEAF. So I researched how I could add a heat source that does not use the LEAF's fuel cell. A small 170 watt electric heater, and a small 220Wh battery pack with included charger and built-in 200 watt inverter gives me 1 hour and 10 minutes of heat per charge.
Here are links to the heater and battery pack on Amazon:

I added another optional part: D_Battery_Stabilizer.stl. Print 2 (or 3) of these to clamp onto the base of the Suaoki 220Wh battery pack. This will help to keep the battery upright in the floor when you are making sharp turns. My goal was for the battery to sit on the hump in the back, but it still tumbles. The floor is the safest place for the battery for now.
If you find something that works better, please leave a link in a comment.
Enjoy!
