I'm already on the one bar lost list.... Please update my status to "2nd Bar Lost - 7/7/2012" Thanks, bturner

<snip> Actual distance traveled was 58 miles, and I average about 4.5 mi/kw indicated on the Leafs center display. Sigh, I think my second bar will be coming soon..</snip> <quote> Do I understand correctly, that you made this range test from a 100% charge? 58 miles at 4.5 m/kWh is under 13 kWh...

An update on my battery condition... I lost my 1st Bar May 12th @ 13633 miles. Location = Phoenix Area. I attended the Phoenix EAA meeting this month, where a ScanGage was made available (Big Thanks to Jim!!!). I charged to 80% on a Blink charger, and read the ScanGage : SOC = 61.9% Then, I...

Thanks for the interest: Charging Routine : I have my Blink set to start charging at midnight. I leave for work at 6:30am. Typical charging ends around 3-4am. Parking : My car is garaged at home, and parked under covered parking during the day while at work. Temperature : I have never seen the...

I have had my windshield replaced. My insurance company had to special order the windshield through Nissan. Took about a week. Looks fine, no worries. Regards, Brett

Another data point.... I just lost a bar this weekend. I have had my Leaf almost exactly one year. Mileage is 13,633. I live in the Phoenix area and charge to 100% every night. I have never used a DC Quick Charge. I had my one year dealer checkup about two weeks ago, and got the "5 stars"...

I don't understand all this concern about the Volts battery either. Here in Phoenix gas cars catch on fire all the time, even when just driving down the road. It happens so often that we have a word for it : CarBQue.

I'd love to have a trip odometer that reset to zero every time I charged! Often I get 4 or 5 miles out and notice that I forgot to reset the existing trip odometers manually. Surely this is just a software change, how about it Nissan?
