I did some reading on the wiki and a quick search in the forum and I don't see a concise answer to the following question:
How many battery temp bars did/do Phoenix Leaf's see year round and how many during the worst heat Jun-Sep?
Also, weird situation for me, yesterday I was parked in the sun (as usual). The air temp was about 74* F but the battery temp bars were showing 6. Drove around at lunch and home and bars stayed at 6 even though relatively cool day. They were still at 6 this morning when I left the house with ambient outside temp of 58*F and garage temp of 71* F.
I have been driving almost exclusively in ECO lately since I'm trying to keep or improve my m/kWh at or above 6. <edit> I've also been driving longer (aka 20 min drive instead of 10 min) but at slower speeds for the same reason.
Question, does driving in ECO with that little bit of extra regen when the battery temp bars are 6 or higher add significant (aka worth worrying about) battery degradation?
