state of charge

State of charge (SoC) is the level of charge of an electric battery relative to its capacity. SoC is usually expressed as percentage (0% = empty; 100% = full). An alternative form of the same measure is the depth of discharge (DoD), calculated as 100 - SoC (100% = empty; 0% = full). SoC is normally used when discussing the current state of a battery in use, while DoD is most often seen when discussing the lifetime of the battery after repeated use.

    Standard & Long Range batteries (LFP & NMC)

    I hadn't appreciated until recently (...because I'm a bit slow on the up-take) that there were significant differences between the ev traction batteries for standard & Long Range S5 models. So I put this table together... Feature or characteristic LFP battery NMC battery Cost Lower Higher...

    S5 Battery is at 97% SOH (new)

    Long story short, received a new S5 drove 1000kms and charged from 20 to 100% a few times to calibrate, now at 2000kms, 1 month old. Battery is at 97.22% max capacity (SOH). Measured within optimal environment. Kinda disappointed, yes I know about the curve during the first 1-2 years but this...

    Battery charging

    Hello, I have a query regarding the charging of battery when car is running on fuel. I have noticed that the battery gets charged upto 12% only even though if you are running the car for close to 200km. In other cars and some other forum mentions that when running for 150km the car gets charged...

    Coding with the MG S5 API

    There is a 'reverse engineered' project on Github to access data using the MG API called: saic-python-client-ng Much of the work and coding examples relate to other MG models, which was a surprise to me when they didn't really work with the S5. So I had to iterate through a collection called...

    Reduced charging rate at -5C

    I didn't realise (until last night) that EV's / some EV's reduce their charge rate when just charging via a home 7kW charger (i.e. not just on rapid DC chargers) when the temp is low and the SOC high :eek: Is this common to all EV's or just certain makes? Wondering if those out there that have...

    %, miles or both?

    Hi Peeps, Being new to EV ownership (8 days in), what do you focus on more in terms of when to charge and/or the distance left to travel etc, I was fixated the first few days on how many miles the GOM was telling me I had, but now I seem to concentrate more on what percentage is left in the...

    Charging the Battery

    Confused to say the least! I was trying to find out how to set the charge to 80% as recommended by MG for my ZS and this is what I came across while searching. My vehicle is standard range so is it okay to always charge to 100% Battery Type: This feature might not appear if your car has an...

    What is the lowest charge you drive to?

    I drove from Rugby starting at 74% and arrive back in Surrey with 8% using ABRP. The previous 2.5 years I've nearly always charged at 30% or minimum 20%. I'm charging overnight to 80% What minimums do you use?

    MG 4 long range battery

    Hi. I have a MG4 long range, 64 kwh battery capacity. A few days ago I charged from 3% to 97%. The total kwh received was almost 55 kwh, is this normal or is the battery is not 64 kwh?

    ZS EV battery state of charge

    I have read a lot of the discussions about estimated range and would like to know what is the state of charge when I am driving along. The only time that I see it stated is when charging, eg 75%. Is there a direct correlation with battery voltage? The car is a 2020 ZS ev (second hand).
