Hi there,
My electric bill is way, WAY higher than what it should be after subtracting my Leaf's KWhs used for a month!
So I'm wondering if the meter in the dashboard for my 2022 Leaf is accurate - the one reporting Miles/KWh.
To find out how many KWh's my Leaf uses each month, I simple divide how many miles I drove (for the moth) by the miles/KWh reported on the dash. This is my 1st year with my Leaf, so I have many years to look how many KWh's I use in my home normally for each month. I am the only one here and I am a stickler with energy use and I even keep track of the avg. daily temperature for each month, so I am not missing info with my home electricity use.
Has anyone ever hooked up an electric meter to measure ACTUAL KWh's drawn from the "wall" and then compared it to the reported info on the dash to see if they are similar? I have a whole house meter connected to my water heater to track usage, so I'm thinking of doing the electrical work to switch it to the car's outlet/line, but I don't want to do all the work if someone else already did.
Thank you!
