Thank you very much. If 31.2kWh is the useable amount of a brand new Honda e then the result of Power check control is correct. Which is worrying for me.....
You have encouraged me to check the value on my Honda E with 12 228 km and I get 30.715 kWh when 100%. My is one year old.

Thank you very much. Helps a lot.
How do you usually charge your car? AC / DC? And you keep it between 80% to 20% or something similar?
I almost always use the 3 pin charger 2.3kW and keep it between 40% to 65% but giving me just 28kWh at 100% disappointed me a lot.
Hi, yes I always change to 100% - most of the time I used the supplied charger 10A (in real life it uses 8,9A so max 2000W).
DC charging - 60 times (starting 06.2021 till now)

Only thing that I do is to precondition in cold weather - (before driving I check if the battery is at least 10 degrees).
But when I precondition the supplied charger is too weak and it draws from the battery (5-6% and if the car was at 100% I don't let it go back to 100% but I drive it and plug it when it's at at least 80%).
I've heard (from Leaf owners) that its not good to charge from 95% to 100%, it's better to go from 77%, 80% to 100%.

Now my battery is at 98% max capacity. - confirmed by PowerCheckControl.
And driving doesn't heat the battery in cold weather (1-5 degrees) - the temps stay the same even after 20 minutes of driving. You are better of with plugging the car to a DC charger and then preheat.
The precondition of the battery only heats the battery when the car is plugged!

and if the gross of the battery is 35,5 kWh and net is 30 kWh (in high draw 28kWh according to Byorn) then 5,5 kWh is the top buffer (aprox 15% of the battery) so when we are at 100% it's like 85%. I will continue to check the battery state.

I received my new OBD2 adpt. today and can confirm that it shows info, not sure if its compatible with ABRP as I don't have any option to enable it there.

Which adapter you have bought? And which app you are using for doagnostics?

Thank you. I will start charging it to 100% from now on and check every time if I loose kWh at 100%
I wish I had this dongle and app from the start, not after more than 1 year :(

pk87, what do you mean preheat the battery? I think you can preheat only the cabin.
