Calculating EV Battery Health - Mkhor@optusnet.com.au - 01-02-2025
Hi There.
I’ve bought a Pro and am trying to interpret the data for my EV. I’m hoping someone can help with the following information
1) Is there a link to a description for all the sensor meanings in the app? I have looked and cannot find any list of all the sensors and what they actually measure
2) In the latest version, there’s now sensor for “Battery SOH (Calculated)”. Previously it was just SOH (not calculated) and I believe this just showed the factory capacity and never changed. Does anyone know if the new sensor measures and reports actual SOH?
3) Is there a way (or a sensor) that reports cycle counts for charging? Ie how many times your battery has been through a full cycle. There is a sensor called “charge times”, but I’m confident this does not reflect actual cycle times. (Seems way too high). For now i have been measuring “accumulated charge energy” and just dividing that by my battery capacity. Is that a valid measurement?
Hopefully someone here can point me in the right direction
Thanks

What is the app you are using, you can check the official website of the app, usually there will be an introduction in the official website of the app

Analyzing the battery capacity relative to the initial capacity and monitoring the charge-discharge performance can help determine the level of degradation and remaining battery life.

Indicators like energy storage capacity, state of charge (SoC), and state of health (SoH) must be tracked in order to evaluate the health of an electric vehicle (EV) battery. The degree of degradation and remaining battery life can be ascertained by comparing the battery's capacity to its initial capacity and keeping an eye on the charge-discharge performance.
