Refurbished Batteries

[Greengolfer]

Does anyone have experience with a refurbished battery? I have a 2014 Model S P85 that is currantly getting a new(refurbished) battery. What kind of range can I expect? Will it be newer components or the same ones in the original battery?
Thanks for your help.

You could get the new 89kwh battery that has more usable capacity (and range) than the 90kwh packs. You could get a refurbished old 85 with a 200 mile batterygate software cap. Tesla is incredibly inconsistent right now.

What did you get in the end? As I am about to get a Remanufactured battery (is this the same as refurbished) for my 2013 SP85.

Remanufactured would in theory be better than refurbished but might just be term a particular person used.

Got one about 6 months ago for my P85D. Nominal range as reported by the car went up by about 7 miles. Not sure if this is real or just due to clearing old data ... was not as good as a new one and was not worse than the one that bricked. Yay.

There is no difference between remanufactured and refurbished when talking about Tesla battery replacements. Just semantics.

Hello all,
In the end I got a battery that charges to ~225 miles at 90%. I haven't charged to 100% yet but am assuming that 100% would be around ~245 miles (works out to 247.5 if you do the math). Was hoping for a bit more miles, but it sure beats the 200ish I was getting at 100% before the replacement

I have a 2013 P85+ with its third pack. It's a R2 pack (refurbished 2 times!). It works flawlessly, the typical range is 365 km (226 miles). It charges at 123 kW at the beginning.of the the charge with a low SOC. I hope all bad cells were replaced and now it will work for the next 300.000 miles. It is not my old packs, It was each time a pack exchange
