So here's the deal. Most days I'm used to my top bar disappearing after just 3-3.5 miles. The only way to make that bar last that longer until now, at least not without timing charge-end for the moment I'm ready to walk out the door, is to remotely activate the climate control while still plugged into the EVSE. This has a side benefit of giving the pack a little bump, restoring full range to that one bar.
Last night I did something a little different in that I had used only two bars over the weekend (so was down to ~80%), but still needed a full pack for the commute today. This is probably the first time I've charged when the pack was not significantly depleted. Charging started immediately on plugging in last night (which was a little odd, since I do have a timer set for 12am on weekday mornings) and so was finished relatively early - 12:26AM - plenty of time for some bleed-off from the top end of the pack. So imagine my surprise when my first bar today delivered over 5 miles (5.2 to be precise), with no change in driving behavior on my part.
Discuss.
