I've notice something that seemed odd to me, so I thought I'd throw it out to the forum.
I have mostly been charging to 100% since I got my LEAF (Drive 60+ miles/day & I've been getting used to it)
Anyway, I got a WattsLeft meter last week and have been watching Gids obsessively, to the point where my driving efficiency has risen enough to where I feel comfortable charging to 80%.
When I charge to 100% I have 279 Gids, after the morning preheat I will have about 272 Gids. -5 Gids
I charged to 80% today at 231 Gids, after morning preheat I had 235 Gids. +4 Gids
Why does my charge decrease when preheating at 100% charge & increase when preheating at 80% charge?
Just wondering.
