    Defrost without charging?

    Tessie lets you program to stop charging

    Charging below 50%

    That makes sense

    Charging below 50%

    Thanks that’s great feedback and I have started doing this. It takes a couple hours at 30% efficiency before the charge rate speeds up if I let the battery cool to ambient, say 0-15F

    Charging below 50%

    For me so far in 15f the worst so far I’ve experienced is about 5 hours of the battery gaining no charge and just warming it’s self after that it has in my experience returned more or less to a 5 mph rate. But this is a side topic that I’ll explore this winter as it gets colder, and I assure you...

    Charging below 50%

    Yes, the zero charge, so to avoid this I just don’t pre heat the cabin except for the heated seats. For me it works, with the girlfriend it’s charged to 50% and pre heated regardless of losses.

    Charging below 50%

    This has come to light, as my summer charging speed is twice the speed as I’m getting now. With that said I so far have not been held back by the charge speed with my low miles I’m driving. When I anticipate it is an issue I just charge to 55% or higher. I’m renting the garage so I can’t...

    Charging below 50%

    Got it, I realize this is splitting hairs, I’m mostly just trying to understand how these batteries work just out of curiosity. I have no interest in pushing below 20, and I will still charge to 80 for some weeks so I likely can manage a healthy BMS calibration. The biggest obstacle that I...

    Charging below 50%

    I’ve learned a lot from AAKEE and a number of other users - one whose username I don’t recall, please chime in, but he mentioned he uses the stop charge function to usually charge up to only 35% and leave a 5% buffer at the end of the day. So I’ve learned about calendar aging and cycle aging...
