And you would be right, it doesn't. What I believe happens after the reprogram is that the controller doesn't yet know the true upper and lower limits of the battery and is temporarily allowing you to use more of the top and bottom "forbidden" reserve until it figures it out... Thus, the temporary range increase.

I do not believe this software can give me more real range, because that is determined strictly by maximum and minimum battery voltages, not software
I agree something close to your explanation is most likely.
Consistent with other reports, my update was done in about 90 minutes, and they said they did the grabby break update as well.
Before the update:
"80%" charge -> 197 Gids, 70.1% Gids, idle 387.4V
9 charge bars at 80% had just occurred.
"100%" charge -> 236 Gids, 84.0% Gids, idle 394.5V
LBW -> 49 Gids, 17.4% Gids, idle 362.0V
After the update:
"80%" charge -> 212 Gids, 75.4% Gids, idle 386.5V
10 charge bars at 80% restored.
"100%" charge -> [will do 100% tomorrow]
LBW -> 49 Gids, 17.4% Gids, idle 360.0V
I am not sure the small voltage shifts at 80% and LBW are significant.
The voltage at VLBW would be more interesting, but I didn't take the time to take my battery down there. Does anyone else have voltage comparisons at VLBW ?
