I may be playing devils advocate here:
However this statement above concerns me. I have always run my battery as low as possible (not enough charge for the next day) and then charged, with the assumption it was good for the battery to have less but deeper charges. fallacy?
And I want to...
I love that this forum is so alive.
your answer is fair...… but as you said there are probably a few Kwh hidden that may not be held back to not actually reach 100%;
And the only way we would really know the effects of 100% charge is to look at the degradation of a car like mine and a...
I looked at post again. Got it. It would work, setting timer by ending time to say 9am. may cost a little more.
Now that its possible, why did Nissan not do what Tesla did? That tweaking that occurs in the last 30 minutes "balancing" will be lost. Is there data that a Nissan battery degrades...
Thanks for all the suggestions, good to know this forum is still alive despite flagging sales:
1) yes, I could start charging at say 5:30am or so for a 12-15 Kw charge for a 40 mile commute.
What if plans change? Go get takeout in the city? meet a friend (post COVID)?
2) Do I want the extra...
I charge after midnight, when rates are super low. I don't have ability to control charge as my Clippercreek is not programmable and as far as I know nor is the car, so charge to 100%. It seems the battery can spend a lot of time at 95%+. I assume its doing something to renew the battery...
I posted correction , had the GIDS wrong and changed kw to kw/h.
Yes it was one of the first 2018 delivered in late Feb.
to answer the voltage question is see:
min/ave/max of 4.203 / 4.203/4.206 (3mv)
My second leaf, and I drive it hard and pay not much attention to it. Home charger . Came to this site as close to needing new tires for the Chicago winter. My range seems to be holding, the % battery charge remaining on guess-o-meter is not linear. From 100% my first commute uses 23 - 25%...
I have one of the first delivered 2018 SL in Chicagoland with 40kw battery
here are some of the problems I have encountered
1) Andoid auto was crashing then stopped working.
replaced head unit and usb port.
I gave up on it.
2) Clicking from front when accelerating from stop and initiating...
unused leaf cover and organiser 2018 leaf charcoal/black Chicago western suburbs for sale. Also willing to trade my 220V charger for smaller 110 charger
I expected based on this forum and knowing my driving style i would get about 130 miles safely in my 2018 leaf.
Yesterday i did a 180 miles round trip with 2 stops at a supercharger. Mostly hwy. temp 45 to 50 deg F
At 40 miles i supercharged charged to 90%..... thinking i had more than enough...
Today I drove my brand new, 2018 SL for about 75 miles, mixed 70 mph hwy, stop and go HWY and local roads.... drove hard playing around
and feeling all that new torque, and arrived home with 51%. NOW THAT IS PROGRESS. And the high pitched whine is gone that I had on the former leaf.
497 GIDS...
