So, this makes me wonder, maybe I should be running my race bike between 65 and 85 ish percent instead of taking it up to 95 every recharge?
granted the few volts extra at top give it a little extra zing but if I am not in a competition, is it worth it to cook off the battery. I may keep the levels down now on the racer and keep the street bike well shit, i can easily do like 40 to 70 no problem. the monthly 100 percent is ONLY for you to have a warm fuzzy that your range is correct, or maybe I should say, battery charge percent left is correct, but really does nothing positive for the battery, so unless you are running a long trip, maybe only every 2 or 3 months since that amount of accuracy is not needed.in all reality you could pull up your engineering screen and watch the voltage and see when it hits the beginning of the plateau and know where your battery is at, regardless of the calculated percentage and only need a top off every 6 months.
very interesting but except for running in the extremes, is the degradation THAT severe for a normal person running in the middle, not hitting it hard, etc etc? This report seems to suggest it is, making me wonder what damage i done already to my batts.
