Hi all this is my fist post. I first bough my Leaf used about a year ago with 22000 miles. When I bought it there were 12 bars, but within a month it had dropped to 11. I'm guessing it was probably about to go to 11 anyway and thought that wasn't too bad. I have always charged it to 80% capacity ever since i have owned it and about once a week I fully charge it to balance the cells. I have driven it for about 7000 miles so I am now at 29,250 and it has dropped all the way to 9 bars. I just read and downloaded LeafSpy Lite and have some numbers to share. I fully charged the leaf last night and when i got up this morning, I started up the car and then ran leafspy. Here are my results.
bat stats: AHr=43.71 SOH=66% 393.56v Hx=60.14 At the bottom it says SOC=96.4
So does this mean my battery is only 66% capacity of a new battery pack? Am i close to being able to claim a warranty on the battery. When it was fully charged this morning it showed 70 miles at 100% capacity. Will this recover at all if i do more full charges, or if I do a more complete cycle like down to turtle then fully charge it back?
Thanks for the info,
Robert
