I explained above how to correct this. You can make your max GIDs read 100%, no need to have it state more than that.dhanson865 said:PianoAl said:What do the white arrows show, and what is it that's at 103.6%?
It looks like you have the old version of Leafspy Pro, the latest version fixed that error and puts the triangles at the end of the colored bar. It's just for looks and the version you are running has a bug showing them in the wrong spot.
Current Version 0.38.80, check the play store for updates.
as to the 103.6% that refers to the 291 GIDs vs the expected max. I'd suggest you tap on the 291 GIDs until that section says 97.2% SOC in the big section instead of GIDs, then % GIDs will be the small item on the right and you can ignore it (though it'll still say 103.6% in the small numbers).
At least I prefer to ignore GIDs. You can mess with them if you want but GID math gets messy when you compare to someone else's car. kWh is universal, GIDs aren't.

A really out of balance cell sticks out like a sore thumb and is a sign you may have a pack failure in your near future. Nice to know if you don't like sitting on the side of the road.

Thanks!

Did you get a whole new pack or just new cells in an existing pack?
35-45 is not the end of the world per se but would be more common to see if you are
* not charging to 100% regularly
* checking mv difference at very low SOC (like below 20% SOC)
* driving very few miles per day or per week.
If you see 20mv at a full charge and 40mv at a lower charge don't worry. If you see 40mv at a full charge and worse at a low charge, you might want to start a new thread and post your leafspy screenshots.
You can try to balance the pack by charging on 120V to 100% and leaving it plugged in for several hours after the charge "completes" but I'd suggest you try that on a cold day in Winter. Prolonged 100% charge is bad if the pack is warm, but not an issue in cold temps.
If you tend to charge to less than 80% you might want to do a charge to 100% several times per winter.
When I first got my used leaf I was seeing high imbalance and after a while of driving the car it improved. And continued to get better. But then I was charging on 120V at work all winter and 240V at home on top of that.
Why do you think you need to wake up in the middle of the night to unplug the car?Tonyt said:I've only done a few 100% charges, I didn't set a start timer and did not want to wake up in the middle of the night to unplug the charger.
