Standard range LFP Battery is ok to charge to 100% regularly…. Long range battery formula better to limit to 80% unless your about to leave on a road trip…
Thanks for the video. Million dollar question. How do you use the air conditioner when you are dc fast charging? From what I understand the car shouldn't be in the ready mode when charging. If you put in the accessory mode ( starting without pressing brake) the HVAC will run off the 12V. The low 12v can cause other problems.
You can use partial air con while on accessory mode. It is only full AC motor but just can blow instead I believe. It does drain the 12v battery though and it is not recommended to run it for too long. The vehicle will give you 12v battery low warning if the 12v battery is getting low.
Why is that while your foot is on the brake pedal and the windshield wipers are on, can you feel the movement on the brake pedal as the wipers move? Is this a normal on 2022 plate car.
Hi jerry just wondering if it’s okay to charge the battery a couple times a day? I’m on the road for most of the day and I top up the battery at fast charging stations in the afternoons to keep me going and then I trickle charge to a 100% when I get home so I’m ready to go the next day , also does trickle charging equalise the battery?
Hi Jerry, I was wondering, is it normal to have a max 50kwh charging at a 200kwh charger? Is it software locked at this speed always? I have a MG ZS EV Luxury 5D 130kW. I read online it should be possible to reacht 98kwh.
Hi, the DC charging rate varies depending on all factors including SOC, temperature and etc. The highest charging rate will mostly be there when the battery is less than 30%. The charge rate will generally drop to 50kw after that percentage.
Thank you, so for a long drive I need to plan 1 hr charging? I was having an impression with ccs charger the car can charge around 92kwh..which the car claims.. Is battery heating can help to receive fast charging ?
And the clunky noise when pressing on the break while reversing or moving forward after reverse? The dealer have changed the brake pads and the noise is gone however noise is back after few weeks, anyone know what else it could it be?
