This! I can't recall the last time I used LeafSpy, at least a year. Just ruins the enjoyment of the car, as there's absolutely nothing good you can do with the information. I charge to 80% most of the time, try to avoid charging when it's hot out, try to avoid deep discharging, otherwise I just drive it.LeftieBiker wrote: ↑Fri Oct 18, 2019 4:09 amThis is why I've gone to 6 month intervals for LeafSpy: you get the same trends, without having to say, every month, "Another drop..."![]()
+1 I've been charging to 60% during the summer and now I'm a bit less careful but I still try to keep it under 80%. I did just check LeafSpy a few weeks ago and I'm at around 94% SOH but I was as low as 92% in the first 6 months before the BMS update on my 2017 S. My LBW still comes on at 14% and I have no noticeable loss of range The dash says I get 4.9 m/kWh so everything is just dandy for me. I've also stopped worrying about using the heat (S model....) and just make myself comfortable.alozzy wrote: ↑Sat Oct 19, 2019 6:56 pmThis!

Same reason I wouldn't want to have a DNA test to find out my life expectancy - sometimes ignorance is bliss

Do you still have your LEAF? Might be useful to update your signature with newest data.SageBrush wrote: ↑Sun Oct 20, 2019 5:35 am.LeftieBiker wrote: ↑Sat Oct 19, 2019 10:05 pmI think I did get useful information from monthly LS readings - the first year.

I still read once a month to correlate transient SOH changes with battery temp. For long term degradation once a year readings are enough, and probably preferred to reduce seasonal noise. If fact, I think it better to take a baseline at one year and then yearly.
