+ - IN MY CHARGING HISTORY

[Fireyrguns]

I noticed the last few times I charged at work and track my history it shows I added a plus minus miles? What does that mean? I am assuming because its so cold it adds it then when it departs it used it back up? Only does this on 120v at work ,my L2 at home does not show this.

120v isn't powerful enough to run the heater to warm the battery. Must be warming with battery and charging a little off 120? Not sure

I think due to the cold and the 120 volt charging, the low power added 7% charge, but the cold lowered your GOM range by 2 miles because the battery got colder, so your range addition was -2 miles.

Level-1 charging doesn't provide enough power to warm the battery and charge at the same time.

I think Ford is taking outside temps into consideration on their GOM. I have seen this as well and am using L2 chargers on both ends. The charger at home is in a heated garage and my farm chargers are outdoors. I use about 3% to get between sites and with it being cold, usually plug in. I have seen my range drop by as much as 20 miles when plugged in outside even though the percent charge went up.
