For the past week, I have gotten the exact same Ahrs level each day: 56.77. This seems weird, since up until a week ago, the level would fluctuate every day within a 54 to 58 range. I thought maybe I could reset LeafSpy somehow, but I don't see a way to do that. I tried unplugging and...

Just to clarify, my post was in response to the OP, not any of the posts that followed.

This is kind of like telling your ex-wife's family why you divorced her, and how awesome your new girlfriend is. It may all be true, but talking about it isn't going to reflect well on you.

2015 S. I've been driving for a week now, and seem to have settled into the following: Default mode is D;Shift to B when approaching stop light/sign, traffic congestion, turn, etc.;Use ECO only in low-speed situations where acceleration is pretty much irrelevant (parking lots, for example...

Hi, Kirk. Just added my Leaf, and glad to do it. The "# Vehicles" incremented by 1, just as you say. It looks like your "Avg aHr" is cumulative rather than average. FWIW, as you add more vehicles to the DB, it might be useful to add a "STD DEV" to the averages. David

The plug on my L1 cable is right-angled, yes. In addition to the possible safety and stress issues, it just looks bad to have the brick hanging like that and the cable on the floor of the garage. I am going to look for an inexpensive hose carrier or other such thing that I can easily mount next...

I do have a good electrician who has done work in our house over the past several years. Bigger issue is convincing my wife to invest any additional money in this. Might have to wait until next year!

Car is parked in an insulated garage. Tell me more, if you don't mind, about why circuit should be dedicated (or close), why brick shouldn't hang on it, and why worry about a "good" receptacle". I don' t mean to be cavalier - these things intuitively make sense. OTOH, if I don' t do any of...

Thanks all. I am going to hang on to it! I appreciate the provisos - I do want this to be a relatively easy experience. I'm not wanting to get too much into the details of battery condition and management, besides doing the essential sensible things. So it's important for me to not be...

Hi and thanks very much for the response. Additional info: - no QC package - price was $11,998 - commute is 11 miles (one way) - additional use is mostly occasional in-town driving (grocery store, etc). I am semi-retired, so still make appointments in Chicago and suburbs. These could...

I bought a 2015 S from Carmax on Monday. Which gives me until today to return if not satisfied. I like the car very much and would prefer to keep it. But based on reading here, I realized it was crucial to assess battery health. Accordingly, I downloaded LeafSpy and purchased an OBD2 dongle...

Another newbie here, with a 2015 S. Just bought it on Monday, and got the OBD2 dongle yesterday. Do these stats look reasonable? Build date: 7/14 Mileage: 18,837 GOM at full charge: 102 SOC: 97.3% AHr: 56.35 SOH: 90% Hx: 85.59% GIDs: 265 kWh: 20.5 Avg. temp: 79.2 Max voltage: 12 mv...

I mis-read the light. It's just the "security indicator light". Duh me. Another one of those times where I experience the combination of feeling stupid and relieved at the same time. :oops:

Greetings. I am a new member. I just picked up my 2015 Leaf at Carmax today. So far, so good (I thought). It was close to fully charged at the dealer. When I got it home I plugged it in (Model S, so only Level 1 charging available, if I've got that terminology right). Before it completed, I...
