Hi!
I just got canion back, and checked both temperatures during DC charging and volts. It seems my pack is really 16kwh, since they remain above 320V. So it really should have something to do with firmware updates and not the batteries versions...
About the temperatures, couldn't yet find...
It could be that the 14.5kwh battery models have this stop during charge. But I'm pretty confident my model is 16kwh... Is there anyway I can confirm which model is mine?
That's interesting... The screenshots I took and posted above also indicate 7°C difference. Next time I use a DCQC I'll take some screenshots as well, or maybe even record the screen.
What I don't understand is why you say that from a longevity standpoint the pack should not have great...
Sure I "know" him from a Portuguese EV forum. He's the absolute hero! I'm happy to know that he is known here as well.
I'm still on the process of reading his "diary" on that forum, which has more than 200 pages! I learnt so much reading it that I will never be able to thank him enough...
Hi Jos! Thank you for your help :)
I don't know what is a seriously-long trip, but I'll be making some 5-6 fast-charge stops in a trip during this summer, and I expect about 30-40°C outside... I don't know either if four or five days per year with cells above 40°C is something I should worry...
Also I noticed sometimes the car takes a while to start up... And as much as I know, it uses the 12V battery to start.
Could it be related? And the car just needs a new 12V battery?
Sorry for my ignorance... I'm probably talking nonsense, but anyway...
Hi!
I bought the car with that AC hack which directs the AC to the pack instead of the feet. It is quite useful, but using it means less range...
So I now feel partly relieved and partly concerned... If it is normal behavior, at least it means nothing is damaged, and that's good! I just...
Hi!
Thank you for this great community you have! I've been reading this forum since looong before buying myself a lovely second-hand Peugeot iOn, and it sure made the difference choosing my first EV!
I'm posting here because, while being tremendously happy with my car, I noticed a weird...
