So I have a SR on order to pick up next week. My one hesitation has been loss of range due to degradation 2-10 years down the road and its limitations on my freedom to explore more remote areas. This is not a convenience concern, but a literal "you can't drive to that trailhead, go in the backcountry for a few days and drive back out because there is nowhere to charge within 90 miles" concern. I am not willing to pay the cost of a LR at this moment.
Assuming the battery gets software limited to 220miles, leaving it a 'spare' 20 miles worth of battery, does this mean that 'spare' 20 miles would be the first to 'degrade'? In other words, my SR will not degrade until that degradation exceeds the spare 20 miles? Or would my pack degrade evenly and I see the same proportion of degradation as a non-software locked car?
This question may not have a definite answer at the moment. I'm open to theories.
Thanks,
Gary
