Sure, I'm not a statitician but I never meant to calculate how many LEAFs in hot climates are affected. Your statistics are not much better. Even if you were to know the number of forum members who reported battery issues and the number of forum of owners who live in hot climate that wouldn't be correct because the forum members are not a representative sample of the entire LEAF population. That is statistics 101.Volusiano said:It's already been explained to death that the 80+ reported on this forum for having lost capacity bars can't be compared to the 28000 LEAFs sold. If you're doing math like this, obviously you don't know anything about statistics because you're mixing apples with oranges. The 100 must be compared against the number of forum members, not against every single LEAF owners regardless of whether they participate on the forum or not.ericsf said:Less than 100 of 28000 is nowhere near a significant number nor a majority.
If you take the issue from the angle of lost capacity bars due to being in hot weather states, the 100 then should be compared to an even more reduced number of forum members from hot weather states only, which is even a smaller sample still.
My point was just to put some perspective on the severity of the problem vs the entire LEAF population - wherever they are.
