Car only charging to 80%

[leewat81]

Help! My mg4 will only charge to 80% in the last few days, any ideas why? Did I turn something on/off!?
It’s the same at home and on the fast chargers

Check the iSmart app that you haven't set it to charge to only 80%

We ehave the opposite problem, the car charges to 100% and there is no setting to only charge to 80%. nothing in the app to change it (SE).

The se sr is not supposed to charge to 80%. It’s an LFP battery you are supposed to charge it to full each time to maintains it. So the option to part charge it has been removed on it

To add LFP needs charging to 100% regularly (as in Atleast once a week) so the BMS knows what charge is the in the battery due to how LFP batteries maintain the voltage levels, opposed to NMC and NCA cells
