Hi guys
I was wondering about the health of my battery pack and wanted to test how much kwh I could draw out of my battery pack.
I charged to 100% (257 rated range) and drove within 3.5h, 235 miles with a remaining 5 miles of rated range, when I pulled into the supercharger in Edison. My dashboard showed me a consumption of exactly 70 kwh. If I add 1.5 kwh for the 5 miles remaining rated rage it sums up to 71.5 kwh usable energy.
According to other TMC postings the usable capacity should be ~75.9kwh
As you can see from my signature below, my BROWNY is about 2 1/2 years old and the current odometer shows 26,300 miles.
What is your opinion about the difference of 4.5 kwh between the theoretical available energy (75.9 kwh) and my test result (71.5 kwh).
Is it a "normal" difference due to the battery degradation caused by age and miles driven ?
Looking forward to your opinions.:biggrin:
