Hello all...
I have been reading/posting/lurking these forums for months, and I have even printed and laminated a copy of Tony's range chart for my car, but I still don't fully understand this...is the mi/kwh shown on the Energy/Status screens accurate for use with the range chart? What about the one from the smaller screen next to the range bars? I reset both at different times (a few days after getting the car), but after about a week of driving, they've both settled on 4.1 mi/kwh. So, if I multiply 4.1 times 21 (or really more like 18.9 since at 30F there's about a 10% reduction in available energy, right?), I should figure out how far I can go, assuming I keep that same average, correct?
What's a best practice for figuring all this out? I've seen some people reset all of their trip counters, energy economy counters, etc, after the end of each trip, but I haven't really seen a consensus on exactly what I should be doing to track all of this. I've also read that the Carwings data differs from the car, and if I had a separate meter, or a Blink EVSE, or a TED device (I have none of these things), I would get different figures. My Carwings, at least for now, shows no data whatsoever (I do press OK every time I turn on the car, so I'm not sure what the issue is...)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
