azguy, can you read cell balance?

(1) Don't leave it at 100% for over 2 hours, especially in the summer, and (2) don't top up the battery unless below 70% and (3) Avoid frequent QC - Although I have yet to even use a QC on the car.
Here's to hoping that we still have greater than 10 bars when we go to sell it or trade it in about 2.5 years from now.

Thats about where I am at now with my 2015 SV.
Built Aug 22, sat on a lot until Jan 22 when I leased it.
Im actually hoping I can run it down to 8 Bars & get a new battery before Lease is up. I specifically got a 4 year lease because I think in 3-4 years Nissan will have an even better thermally resistant battery (No TMS) but via chemical composition, perhaps even a denser pack with more Kw for longer range - then I will buy it at the residual. If they havent improved much by then, I bet there will others that will have superseded Nissan, and then thats where I will go. Only the Shadow knows
At 600 miles my readings are similar to yours, but you have about 5% higher readings across the board
Have you "verified" you have the Lizard Battery.... calling Nissan Leaf Support with your VIN? April should be some of the first Hot Climate Batteries in production.
I agree totally about "Newbee" EV Buyers like US - Lesson Learned - ALWAYS check the Mfg Date before (simple call to Nissan) and bring LeafStat or Spy ... wish I knew that as well!
Nest one i lease/Buy I will try & have the Dealer order one from Nissan so I get as "fresh" of a pack as possible.

How can find that in SpyPro logs ?DNAinaGoodWay said:azguy, can you read cell balance?
lorenfb said:azguy said:2015 S LeafSpy readings ,93 SOH after 4000 miles did not expect this .
Due for my first service not sure if leaf expert will come up with some findings
2/9/2015
GIDS 271 SOC 97.1 SOH 93 Ahr 57.78 Odo 4091 miles L1/L2 219 QC 7
7/22/14 readings
GIDS 291 SOC 96.7 SOH 100 Ahr 64.37 Odo 213 miles L1/L2 13 QC 3
My 2013 (Prod. 9/13, Del. 12/13) at 3.7K had 60.5 Ahr. Now at 16K is has 57 Ahr.
Check and see where the 1st bar 'drops' (Ahr), after a 100% charge which provides a rough indication
where the 1st bar will actually be lost.

No, that is nothing to worry about.MartinChico said:So it doesn't really sound like a problem, but all those red bars are sure unnerving. Should I be worried?

I ran a VERY short experiment where I fully charged the LEAF overnight, checked it the next morning and then let it sit til the next day and both times I did it, I lost over 1% and its now looking like I might not get that back...
I have increased my driving back to what it was last Fall and that got back a little but not nearly what I lost. The only thing I have left to try is multiple QC's... other than that, I am afraid my full capacity is now a fond memory...

I'm about to hit 7,000mi on my 2015 and the best 100% I've had in the last few 100% charges is 278. I don't think I'm getting back the old high 280 charges anytime soon. In fact at this rate of degredation, I'm losing my 3rd bar by 45,000 miles.

I was really disappointed when my GIDs dropped to 281 after the first month, but it's leveled off, so maybe it's not as bad I first thought.

I would be more concerned with the ahr remaining. what is your GIDs set at? your ahr remaining is at my level (I average between 20.8 and 21.2) and I have over 19,000 miles
