Welcome

Thank you

Congrats. We are 11 years into Leafs, but moved to Gen 2 in 2019 from a 2013.

Thank you, and yes highway range is main consideration. Every watt taken off of cruising consumption reducing charging need(for the 600 miles in a day) and improves pack cooling (what little there is) as draw is reduced.

Any cybertruck sightings yet? I have seen many Hummers and Lyriqs as well, I do believe those shipments have gone way up recently.

We have 2 Leaf Pluses. One I charge at home foe commuting, and another that my daughter uses at college and only DC charges. Both 2019s. The DC charged Leaf has 4% higher SoH after similar miles.

My.experience is ypu cam do about 1.5 DC charges in warm weather or 2 in cooler weather without much fall off of charging rate. I have had some trips where I above 50KW for 3 back to back charges, but lots of variables to unpack there.

With my eco tires and low.weight rims, I only needs just a few more degrees of cooling between DC charging. Even a small improvement would be a great help at least psychologically.

I haven't seen any affect from my low cell.

I have a lazy cell that acts the same. Off about 40-42mV at hogh SoC and maybe 20 at low SoC.

All, I am looking for a new set of low weight rims for our other Leaf Plus. Besides the EV01+ from fast wheels (which we have in our other Leaf Plus), any other suggestions?

Any hope that with the new ccs/Chademo adapter we could get 250+ amps from the ccs chargers? (Instead of the singular chademo at the Nissan USA headquarters which can charge the Leaf at 100KW).

On a level battery at.evgo, I will.usually.see upper 70s below 30% SoC (dash). The above.was from another Leaf driver at a very special Chademo station.

Local dealer has 24 Leaf SV+ marked down to 26K before any tax or local rebates. Not a bad price.
