battery state of charge

State of charge (SoC) quantifies the remaining capacity available in a battery at a given time and in relation to a given state of ageing. It is usually expressed as percentage (0% = empty; 100% = full). An alternative form of the same measure is the depth of discharge (DoD), calculated as 1 − SoC (100% = empty; 0% = full). It refers to the amount of charge that may be used up if the cell is fully discharged. State of charge is normally used when discussing the present state of a battery in use, while depth of discharge is most often used to discuss a constant variation of state of charge during repeated cycles.

    Can I Choose Which Power Supply To Use?

    Hi Folks, I think that I probably already know the answer to this question? But hopefully I'm wrong... I see that it's possible to select EV only. But why can't I select petrol only? 🤔 From what I've read on the web. It isn't ideal to leave the high voltage battery either 100% full or 0%...

    Charging speed on fast charger

    Hi, I'm just sitting at fast charger (160kW) and the car pulls approx 50kW only. I thought it will be something like 80 kW (long range). I started from 45% battery. Is it normal ?

    S6 conventional battery monitoring.

    So today I checked the status of the conventional battery about lunchtime and given the result have been keeping an eye on it during the rest of the afternoon, so far no topping up, the cars not been out, not suggesting a problem, just posting for info.

Anyone had this and have any idea what it was trying to tell me? It had been on a...

    Only charging at 45kW max. on 350kW charger.

    We rarely have to charge away from home but went to Edinburgh and back last weekend. Found that charging the battery was disapointing slow. On IONITY 350kW it only managed a maximum of 45kW (even when at 10% battery) despite all the other cars charging were more than 80kW. The Porche Taycan was...

    Charging with Intelligent Octopus Go - 5% Short

    I use intelligent Octopus Go for my charging, with a Zappi charger. The way it works is that you tell Octopus what charger you have and what car you have when setting it up. To charge, you can plug in any time of day and you say you want it to add X% charge by a certain time, and Octopus...
