Ed, are you aware of the Android app "Leaf Spy" (I think is the name)?
I don't have any experience with it but I have a similar thing for my
imiev. With a $10-$60 OBD reader, it should give you the straight scoop
on your energy flows.
There is something referred to as a GIDometer by people on the mynissianleaf
forum. I don’t think it is an android app though.
I no longer lurk on mynissanleaf so the following may have some errors.
I did buy a gidometer and found it quite an improvement on the standard
instrumentation. Providing a linear and probably accurate
representation of state of charge. I believe the guy behind the
gidometer went on to develop Leaf Spy:

The guy's name is Gideon or somesuch. That is the origin of the name
"gids" for the units that represent SOC in the Leaf's software.
Resolution is a bit more than 200 which is vastly better than the 12
"bars" Nissan presents.
I further believe I saw discussion on the imiev forum:
http://myimiev.com/forum/
where the Gideon guy was collaborating with the author of the Canion
app. Suggesting improvements or changes.
The gidometer is a small display with a couple of buttons that is
connected via wire to a OBD connector. Both Leaf Spy and Canion are
Android apps that read, via bluetooth, a OBD reader. I believe both
apps can use the same type of OBD/bluetooth reader.
