Huh, that's tempting. I think that's the same one posted on the other forum. Any idea how shipping would work?

Edit: And if it doesn't work out for me to get one but you do and need to re-home your Volt dcdc... Let me know. I believe mine is dying. :(

it appears an outfit in Wilsonville, Oregon, USA called Cascadia Motion sells these and offers some manuals for them, I will try to attach the CAN Bus pdf below

Maybe someone can program this VooDoo into the Zombieverter?

I’m also interested in getting one of these chargers so count me in.
I’m just noticing that in the latest Zombieverter release 2.20A in the parameter list https://openinverter.org/wiki/Zombiever ... pot_Values

Under charger types 6=Elcon - Elcon/TC charger protocol via CAN now shows up and from other documentation I understand the Dilong uses ( might use?) the same protocol and CAN so this might be a good start for integration.

Here is the openinverter wiki link:

https://openinverter.org/wiki/Dilong/Cascadia_Chargers

The seller states:
“ These use the same CAN protocol as the Cascadia, Elcon, and TC Chargers, and has a wide level of support, including the AEM VCU, Orion BMS2, and others.
3D CAD files, CAN DBC and full spec sheets are available.”

If anyone has more info on using these with the Zombieverter please chime in as I’m just collecting up the trail of crumbs but it looks worth exploring for a charger dcdc combo unit at a good price.
