Default Re: Will an Insight run with dead traction battery?

i ran my insight for about a week after the IMA pack completely quit. lost about 3 mpg on my standard commute. had a little less power. no big deal. i would buy it, as long as the dc-dc converter is keeping the 12v battery charged up. and start looking for a cheap set of batteries for the ima system. YMMV.... a lot!

.

2000 Honda Insight. Kenwood MP3 head unit, Blaupunkt door speakers, dual Cobalt amps, 3 MTX stealth subs, 4th very-high-mounted brake light, Sumitomo tires, yellow-top, hot induction air mod, tinted, SG2, MIMA, center armrest.


best tank 82 mpg
