I calculated 5.82 for my average over 3 trips. The variation between the 3 numbers was something like 2-3%. I would not be surprised if the...
Not sure I understand your gasoline analogy. Energy in a system is normally conserved or constant although it can be converted from one form into...
In thinking about driving in EV, starting with a full charge, (say 5.8 or so kwh allocated for EV) in terms of physics and energy conservation, it...
Great suggestion. Thanks! Didn't even know it was there. I am assuming the trip total resets each time you stop/start. Is that your understanding?
I am not sure I am following you completely. Let me summarize my results and conclusions and then you can poke holes or expand my understanding....
I have now done the earlier experiment two more times. Here is a summary of results: 1. First time used 6.47kwh from wall to go 34.5 mi, so...
Not sure I understand how you get higher mi/kwh by switching from EV and HV. Is this because you get charging in HV mode?
I started the experiment by driving on July 8 and finished July 9, with a total of 34.5mi. Eco Diary gave 5.6 mi/kwh for July 8 and 6.1 for July...
Do you agree that averaging 6.1 for July9 and 5.6 for July 8, the two days over which the 34.5mi driving occurred and getting about 5.9, is...
It shows 6.1 ave mi/kwh with AC load ratio of 3 (whatever that means) for July 9. However, it is probably not appropriate to compare this...
Yes, 34.5 mi was actual miles indicated on Main display speedometer and all driving done in EV (no switching back and forth) until EV range was...
I wanted to get an accurate estimate of electrical usage for EV driving and thought using the DM2 reading would be a convenient way. This shows...
Here's some data: I zeroed the mileage, reset the mi/kwh DM2 reading to zero, fully charged the battery and then drove 34.5mi in EV before...
So what role does your 12% play? If you are in HV after EV range is depleted, won't it then be the absolute bottom? I realize the 18% will be...
John's thing is interesting and basically consistent with you. To summarize, using your numbers, the battery charge can range from 12% to 80% of...
This is fascinating and I am grappling to follow you. First, do I understand that this means that if the HSI screen shows 100% that actually the...
I guess I am confused. Help! As I understand it, the battery allocates 6.6 kwh for EV and this what my wall meter usually reads after a full...
I am wondering now, if when calculating the cost per mile in EV, it might be more accurate (and easier) to use the mi/kwh reading on Drive Monitor...
OMG, LOL! By NE, I thought you meant Nebraska, which is where I live. And, believe it or not, I have lived (some time ago) 11 total years in the...
Not sure what you mean about NE, Hawaii. Since I think both you and I are actually getting in the 60’s for HV mpg, this is quite above the EPA...
