First, use mapping software to find your odometer error in your CW/NC
miles driven reports to correct the
mi in
3.5 mi/kWh.
Then, use your expected discharge/recharge efficiency to correct the
kWh used error, as reported by CW/NC in
3.5 mi/kWh.
If your 30 "kWh" LEAF has the same error in kWH use reported on the Dash/NaV screen and CW/NC as do 2011 LEAFs, then you could calculate capacity loss from this
consistent error, without having to do full discharge/charge tests.
My 2011's LBC currently reports ~36% capacity loss, but the kWh use report error is close to a consistent 12%, meaning each nominal kWH reported on my dash/nav screen and CW/NC, actually contains ~1,120 WH, and my available pack capacity is now ~24 % below spec...
