Just got my 2015 Leaf S two days ago. Love it so far. It's a bummer the Carwings doesn't work on the S model. I have read a lot and haven't gained clarity on the risks or benefits of charging to 100%. I have read about the recommendation to not fully charge the batteries to 100%. Is that recommendation related to older models? Do the 15's offer better batteries that can handle being charged 100% on a regular basis? When I first charged my Leaf it said like 13 hours to get to 100% charge via 110 plug. I charged for 8 hours and it was at 100% and stopped charging on its own. I am confused a lot by the blogs I have read that indicate that it's a bad idea to charge to 100%. They also say that you have to manually stop it charging or it will continue charging after reaching a full charge. It would be easier for me to charge to 100%, but I want my Leaf to last, as I have purchase her. Any recommendations for longevity would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time and consideration.
