For some time now, I’ve been trying to be a bit more methodical with charging, especially to avoid putting unnecessary stress on the battery.
In my day-to-day use, I try to stay roughly between 20% and 80%, without always going up to 100% unless I really need to. It seems like a sensible habit for everyday use, particularly when the car sits idle for quite a few hours after charging.
Every now and then, however, I do a slow AC charge up to 100%, mainly to help with calibrating the percentage reading on the car. I try to do this only when I know I’ll be using the car within a few hours, so it doesn’t sit fully charged for too long.
I don’t know if it’s the perfect strategy, but for now it feels like a reasonable compromise: more conservative day-to-day charging, and 100% only now and then, when it genuinely makes sense.
