    Scheduled battery preheating vs. battery degradation

    Thanks for answer, Åke! But the SC will use higher effect when the battery is warmed up by the preconditioning, right? May be it will be the same result for battery life? But Tesla want to show that it takes shorter time to charge therefore they use higher effect. Time is what mostly user is...

    Scheduled battery preheating vs. battery degradation

    OK, but what do you think about precondition before supercharging? is It better to shut It off if you are not in a hurry? Could It be better for the battery to charge at lower speed? I search for Superchargers with the lowest effekt bequase I think this is better for the battery life.

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    1. TMThree: Are you the creator of the graph? 2. Yes, not good to drive at 20% SOC. But Your graph says that lower SOC have some advantages.

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    Hi TMThree! I think you are spot on! Where did you found the curve? Sems like it is better to stay at 20% than 70%?
