pharmoun Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 I heard that an 80% charge is common, with a monthly charge approaching 100%. Is that correct? Do you have any suggestions? I appreciate your assistance in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VVC-Geeza Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 I maintain cellular equilibrium. Air conditioning charging. Do not keep the automobile stationary for extended periods at 100% charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenkeyte Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 My device reaches a full charge of 100% each time I charge it at home. It is used inside 24 hours, so I have no problems around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfieBase Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 My perspective differs little. I believe that a hundred percent capacity is sometimes a historical need for LFP batteries at now. Based on my observations of several presentations on EV batteries, it is advisable to maintain a number below 75% for the sake of lifespan. I typically charge to 70% most of the time, and when I want a wider range, I charge to 100%. This seems to extend the battery's longevity, particularly after its use in the electric car. Research indicates that consistently charging to 100% may have adverse long-term consequences on the battery; nevertheless, the vehicle is likely to succumb to rust before these battery concerns arise.

stevenkeyte Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 One aspect to contemplate here? Do you intend to retain the vehicle for over eight years? If not, refrain from excessive contemplation. Provided you remain within the battery warranty term, unless you exceed 100,000 miles.(uncertain on precise miles) Include instances of 10-year-old Leafs or Souls that maintain a satisfactory battery percentage after a decade without thermal control. Concerns about battery life are of little priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexfer Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 I consistently charge to 100% to avoid being unprepared for an unexpected adventure that need full range. I assert that the battery management mechanism preserves a buffer to prevent overcharging. If charging to 100% posed a significant risk, Kia would have implemented measures to proactively alert us.
