My apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere. I see lots of info for both DOD and SOC independently for the longevity of batteries, but having some trouble finding info that looks at both factors together. A high SOC is bad for the battery, but by keeping a lower SOC and charging less frequently you are creating a high DOD which is also bad.
Eg:
1)charging frequently with small top-ups or (as an example) charging once the battery hits 70% makes a low DOD (good) but a high average SOC (bad)
2)charging less frequently or (as an example) charging once the battery hits 30% makes a high DOD (bad) but low average SOC (good)
Which factor is worse for wear and/or what balance should we look to strike between these two factors?
Discussion is specific to the LFP batteries if that helps at all
