Thanks - that's an interesting and well produced piece. I've always read that 20-80% is the optimum for energy throughput with most battery types. I wonder why they didn't test that regime, only 0-[25|60|80|100]% and 75- 100%. Have the impression that NMC cycle life is better when it's seldom charged above 70%. I don't see that as tremendously different from his LFP recommendation, but maybe I misunderstood the piece. The presenter says that Tesla recommends keeping your EV plugged in when it's not in use. Really? That doesn't seem like a good idea to me, but what do I know? With our Zoe, we don't charge unless SOC is < 25%, and then only to 70-80%. We will charge to 100% if we plan a trip for the next day that will use at least 20% of capacity.
