Was the car plugged in when you defrosted it?

Not sure if this is a silly question or not, but by discharging the battery a little and then doing a charge to equalise, will that damage the battery in the long term?

Car charged and balanced. Took less time than it did over the weekend, but rather than showing me 444v, it’s now showing 443v?? Any idea why the voltage has decreased since my last balance charge rather than go up? (FYI it’s currently 7 degrees outside, so wouldn’t say that’s too cold)

I love a good SWMBO drop in a conversation 👍🏽

So, just plugged in and I had 88% on the battery. Going to balance charge tonight and see whether my voltage increases higher than the 444v that I had on my last two charges Pic below of the mileage and voltage when I plugged in.

Let us know how you got on 👍🏽

4.9m/kWh!? Do you constantly drive downhill!?! I hover between 2.9 and 3.0 m/kWh

As an aside, those who have had the new BMS update and have been rebalancing their cars multiple times, have you seen the voltage increase? If so, how many charges did it take for you to notice it? I’ve done 2 charges and the voltage in my car has stayed the same

FYI, I sure it was established that the can can take a max of something like 6.6kw on a 7kw charger. Regarding the rest of the issues with charging, no idea.

Yes it was - didn’t think of that -which would make sense why the range was lower. Still doesn’t explain why the voltage was lower in the evening than the morning though. Always thought that was static, regardless of the weather, when it’s fully charged

Holy Guacamole! May be worth calling the dealer about it.

Random question, but does temperature effect the voltage in any way? So the colder it is, the lower the volts?

The same here. I’d use ABRP to plan a route, but use Waze as a satnav and then check Zap-Map to make sure the charges are working

So this is odd... I put my car onto charge at 12:00 pm and it was 92%, charging at 6kwh. Had a look at 4:30pm and it had finished equalising. I unlocked the car and then it started equalising again so I left it a bit. Had a message on my Ohme app that the charge had finished, so I checked the...

So it looks like yours is increasing then, so will get better

At 92% my car was pulling just over 6kw when I plugged it in, but I did go for a drive which warmed up the battery a bit.

I went for a drive and dropped the battery to 92%. I’ve put it back into charge to equalise and see what voltage I get

Yeah, it was showing lower than it was when I balance charged it last week. That was showing as 450v

Oh, and now my car is showing as 444v on a full charge?
