This morning I was driving to work and as typical I charged to 80% last night and then turned on preheating (while it was plugged into my Blink) 10 minutes before I unplugged and left for the office. It's not uncommon that at 80% or 80%+ (after preheating while plugged) I will see one or maybe two regen bubble unavailable for a short amount of time.
I didn't pay too much attention when I initially left, but about 10 miles into my drive, with 8 battery bars remaining, when heading downhill, I noticed that I had one regen bubble not available. For what it's worth, The first part of my journey is mostly uphill so it eats away at a couple battery bars quickly, but then I reach a nice long downhill and with traffic this morning I was using a lot of regen. Eventually, about 10 miles later (at a total of 20 miles into my drive) that last regen bubble came back.
It was about 48 degrees outside this morning but I still had 5 battery temp bars. The Leaf is garaged so the temperature stays pretty constant.
Any thoughts?
