    I'm guessing the disc isn't being driven in reverse by the motor, so there might be a bit of harmonics or something from the motor ...

    Any idea why neutral "gear" makes such a difference?

    I have had our ZS EV LR for 14 months and only done about 7,000km so I only do 100% twice a year.

    I have to say, that I do find MG’s advice on charging and balancing for NMC type battery chemistry, a little bit contradicting myself ...

    Curious, how long does balancing take you if you charge to 100% from let’s say 80% or does it not happen at all?

    Hi Mickey, yes it is confusing when manuals are not precise. I'm not used to that in engineering. I bought my ZS EV LR brand new last...

    It’s certainly confusing that the ZS manual seems to use the term ‘equalisation charge’ also for a BMS calibration, but it is what it...

    The ZS EV manual states that the only way to do a 'full & proper' equalisation charge is to do a full slow charge to 100%. That's page...

    The nearest figures I have is an 84% charge, which gave a 103mi range. It was 3 dgs C tho!

    Yes, it took 7 hours or so! It ran at 2.3kW. After 7 hours, the power dropped to 2kW, Affter another 20 mins, the power dropped to 240W...

    Good idea. I'll try it when I've got a wall box, so that it can be charged back up in good time.

    No, the two processes I refer to are a) balancing/equalisation (same thing) I.e. discharging cells b) BMS calibration/battery...

    Hi Mickey, I think maybe you are misunderstanding what I've said & this may be the way I've explained it. I have already said/eluded to...

    T1 Terry reacted to MickeySw's post in the thread Is this SoH OK? with Like Like.
    I’m sorry, but you can’t call a BMS calibration a ‘full & proper equalisation/balance charge’, these are two different processes, with...

    Hi decrep, yes, we both know what the process is but to be absolutely clear for those that are not sure, a battery 'balancing' is the...
