I charge to 80% daily (Drive at minimum 50 miles a day and charge to 100% once a week). Always let it have at least a half hour cooling off period after charging is stopped/finished before driving but also drive within 2 hours at the very most of charging being stopped/finished). Just got ELM adapter today and plan on documenting the results daily when possible.
Looks like very battery friendly conditions. I too have my battery charging start at midnight, with the car parked outside in the driveway...allowing the battery pack maximum cooling. And I usually go for a drive no later than 7am, especially if I charge to 80%.
I was going to plan a 200 mile drive this weekend, relying on up to DC quick charge sessions to 80%. (which only gets me approx. 40-48 miles for freeway driving in my car). However, it is supposed to be 100F this weekend. That coupled with the DCQC might be murder on my battery. If I do it, I will be sure to document the battery capacity every leg of the trip.
Interestingly enough...today I checked, and I looks like I gained about .50AH, up to 62.05AH (93.65%) from 61.54AH (92.88%) just a few days ago.
And this is with a higher average battery temp. Perhaps is here is only a 3.4F cell temp diff, which is about half of my result in the first post of this thread.
