I just got a Nissan Leaf and I'm not sure what's the best way to charge it overnight. Should I use a Level 1 or Level 2 charger? Is it better to charge to 100% or only up to 80%? Any tips for preserving the battery life?
ReplyIt's recommended to use a Level 2 charger for faster charging times. As for the battery, it's best to charge up to 80% to avoid degrading the battery life over time.
I've been using a Level 1 charger and charging to 100% every night and my battery life hasn't been affected. It's really up to personal preference. Just make sure to unplug the charger once it's fully charged to avoid overcharging.
