I just looked at a used 2015 with 12,500 miles that shows 87% State of Health in Leaf Spy. That is substantially lower than I expected, and I'm a little concerned. The car lived in the SF Bay Area (Mtn View), so the climate wasn't extreme. Leaf Spy shows 233 L1/L2 charges and 1 QC. The car is...

Good observation.

I happened across this insurance auction listing for a 2015 S that caught fire, and I thought people might be interested. Link to listing (which may be removed shortly): https://www.iaai.com/Vehicle?itemID=25129649 This car is apparently on an auction lot in Fremont, CA right now. VIN...

Thanks for the replies. The heater sure seems like the least exotic answer, but I really don't think it was on. The fan would've been on, as well as the lights. I'm pretty sure I would've noticed those things. But the power drain is about right, according to a couple articles I've read...

Thanks. I got the first point. I have the timer set to off, as we don't have time-of-use metering. Are you saying I could have hit the "timer off" button to get it to resume charging after 80%? It did seem to resume after I turned the car off after changing to 100%. However, that's right when...

Hi, I'm very new with the behaviors of electric cars. We've only had this used 2013 S for a little over 200 miles. Today I let the car charge up to 80% on its own. Shortly after reaching 80%, I decided I wanted to push it up closer to 100%. With the car still plugged in, I got in, turned it...

Ah, thanks, Dave! That gives me some peace of mind. It seems everyone is saying more or less the same thing. I was imagining the SOH as something that marches irreversibly downhill with time & use. Not so, obviously. It sure would be nice to find out exactly how that number is derived...

So this really gets to the heart of the matter. What exactly is SOH measuring, and what calculations is Nissan using to output that number? I'd imagine there are multiple threads discussing this, and I don't imagine Nissan is too forthcoming with those answers. To answer a previous question...

Down to 86% from 90% after 140 miles of use. :|

Yes, the battery still shows 12 bars. It's my understanding that it will drop to 11 bars when the state of health (SOH) reaches 85%. If the SOH can fluctuate a little, it makes me wonder if people have seen their battery indicators go from 11 bars back to 12 for short periods. I think I read...

Many thanks to all of you. It seems our current numbers are in line with others' and I don't have much reason to fret at the moment. I guess I was feeling a little jumpy after having read about some monkey business people have apparently played with battery gauges. I hope that was very limited...

Hi, I recently bought a used 2013 S with 27k mi. We've driven it a mere 100 miles since the purchase 2 weeks ago, and the SOH has gone from 90% to 87% in that time. Weather has been 60s-70s, never out of Eco mode, and charging has been 2 times to 80% using level 1. When it dropped to 89%...
