What I see is that Leaf reports 80% real Soc as 80% (end of my default
charging) and 100% charging is in reality around 90% SOC according to
LeafSpy (it varies a bit where LeafSpy reports it, apparently charging speed
and temperature play factors also) Then at the low end, the Leaf cutoff is
somewhere between 10-15% real SoC which is already after the lowest bar has
been blinking and the Turtle has come one, reducing motor output to make you
go charge *now* as well as protect the battery, while still allowing you to
exit the road safely.
I have never taken it below the last bar blinking and 6 mile range estimate
which is about 20% real SoC.
So, I say that charging to 80% with the Leaf has merit in reduced
deterioration.
