Thanks for this podcast. I just want to suggest to MG if it's possible to convert the battery button on the MG Zs EV MK1 to show state of charge/ battery Percentage instead of the range that we have already on the screen. I believe it's a software update fix. Thank you
My understanding is that LFP batteries still degrade when left fully charged but less so than NMC batteries as they are more rugged, partly due to the chemistry, partly due to a lower nominal cell voltage. The reason for fully charging them often is, because the LFP battery has a flatter discharge curve, that is a small votage variation with charge level, the battery management system needs a full charge to properly the ballance the pack. The NMC battery has a prononced voltage drop as it is dishcharged and the BMS czn more easily read the charge level of the cells. You covered this at the end of the talk. Thanks for the very usful info.
You Guys kept talking over each other and not letting Miles a word in edgways. he has the expeerience and I would have liked to hear more from him. otherwise a good podcast.
Hi I enjoyed the podcast and all the relevant information. My question is I have a 2022 MG4 Trophy which I've owned from new and have only covered just under 7000 miles will I harm the battery if I charge it to 100% and then not use the car for a couple of days,say after doing a balance charge.The car has never been on rapid charger .Thanks in advance.
Note the NMC battery in the trophy can be balanced reasonably successfully at 80% SOH because the voltage range is greater than an LFP and therefore the BMS understands what 80% should look like. From my understanding not 100% charging may mean the BMS doesn’t understand the full potential range, but that should be recovered when you do eventually charge to 100%. Whereas repeated charging to 100% and leaving at a high state of charge for days will have a physical effect on range that can’t be recovered. Hence as an owner not generally doing long journeys, I haven’t been charging to 100% as much as suggested
I have the Mk1 ZS ev and the performance in the winter (or under 5c ish), when the battery is down to 30% ish, the power just plummets, down to 50% power by the time it's down to 15-20%. I've heard that there is a firmware that enables battery heating but generally not offered as standard in the UK. Would this help with the issue?

Please make a video on using ABRP with live SOC data with different non Tesla cars like the MG4
ABRP with Vlink OBD has made my MG4 SE brilliant, add to that wireless CarPlay via Carlinkit Dashcam. Love it! 14k miles in 9 months. 😊
Great podcast discussion. well done all.
Very intersting show again guys, thank you!
Great discussions - Many thanks 👍

Our BYD Seal is LFP and with more range than our old Tesla LFP. We like to sleep soundly at night.....and it's a gorgeous keeper.
Great information, very glad to get all of it. I have one query that wasn't answered in the podcast though. When doing the

What temperature range battery management system maintains battery in mg ev car

As the podcast goes on its SO annoying as you talk over Miles. Miles you are a very patient man.
Awful presenting styles, and why only a partial screen.
Perhaps the presentation is just a side point? A discussion piece.
It's an amateur podcast aimed at MG EV owners. Sorry it didn't meet your expectations. I on the other hand found it very interesting.😀
