    Battery Tracking

    Does anyone (especially existing EV owners) do anything related to battery tracking? I ran across this battery comparison app (iPhone/iPad) which seems to only support Tesla Model 3s, but the idea is to keep track of battery condition. Maybe something else would be better, and it's not clear to...

    Any way to have the A/C work when charging?

    My '19 PHEV is outstanding in so many ways. But it has one real annoyance that is a killer in the summer. I had to run my daughter to an urgent care facility Sunday that was 19 miles away. Since I knew I had to wait a while for her, I went to a nearby Blink station to charge back up. I've tried...

    How is your HV battery holding up?

    The topic of battery longevity comes up repeatedly here. We know Honda's policy is that a warranty replacement will occur only when the capacity drops below 66.6% of the nominal new capacity of 55 Amp-Hours within the 8 year (or 10 in California) warranty period. The vehicle constantly...

    Battery Degradation Behavior

    I have been keeping records for all of my charging, including SoC at the beginning and end of each charge and the kWh used. So I plotted the kWh / change in SoC as a function of the odometer miles. I am not sure if there is a direct relationship between the [kWh/ delta SoC] and the battery...

    Calculate EV Charge Cost

    I programmed a little website to calculate an EVs charging cost. You can enter some basic information into the calculator like battery size, State of Charge and costs (per minute, session, kWh) and it will calculate the time needed to charge, the total and the per kWh cost. With all these...

    A trip to Florida

    I just came back from Florida, so I was away for 20 days. I am not of an age that I can drive all night, so my longest day was about 430. I charged 26 times. 90% on electrify America sites, which I had only used once before, so there was a learning curve. Worse charge was at an EVgo station...

    What kind of food or where do you eat during charging sessions, especially considering that current charging is substantially faster than previous generation charging technology?

    charging dead, no health report diagnostics

    Charging on my week-old Niro EV appears dead. If I plug in the trickle charger (don't have my level 2 installed yet), all lights on the charger appear good (vehicle icon in blue, charge battery icon blinking green), but the car does not show that it is charging (dash green lights not on and red...

    Plug-in charging error U0296

    Hi folks, I saw a number of you post about the check engine light/system error that says Plug-in Charging Error, Power Limited (or something like that). Sounds like most of you had that problem while trying to charge (L2). We were driving and the error popped up close to home. There's still 39%...

    Slow Charging on Clarity PHEV

    I wanted to share my recent experience in the hope that it may help others. I charge using the 110V EVSE. I recently found my clarity was charging very slowly. Almost 24 hours to fully charge. I noticed that the charger was flashing orange, even though the charge door light was green. After...

    Charging outside with hot temperatures?

    Any feedback on charing the Clarity during very hot outside temperatures? The public charger at my workplace got recently fixed so I have the option to charge there for free during the day but here in Florida we are going through temps ranging from low 90s to low 100s during the day (it's not...

    Charging anomaly

    Over the past few days, while expecting EV Range estimates to be above 47 miles, our EV Range estimate has fallen to 39-41. I tried driving very gingerly but things didn't improve. Then I noticed this. We have a JuiceBox Pro 40. Here is a normal charge graph from 10 days ago. It shows a smooth...

    Great C-NET video on different chargers/ connectors

    Here is a very good video that explains all the different charging levels and connectors. And at 40 seconds in is a part just for @insightman who keeps us straight on modes and in this case what’s a charger and what’s an EVSE. (Hint: You’ve never plugged a charger into your Clarity. Ever.) It...
