ICE charging

[Jto]

There have been many posts on this but has any one seen this, travel a few miles to store on Saturday morning and each time I get there the ICE can be running and I have noticed this, if battery level is at 30 or 29 miles it starts to charge the battery. So any one does not believe me I took the photo of it happenin.

The HS is good at sending excess power to battery. In Auto mode yesterday I went through multiple section where I drained the car
100-88, 95-80, 95-70 percent and driving at 70mph with ACC. Every couple of miles it would as a percent back

Out of interest, what accessories are running (heater?) and what level of regen have you selected?

No accessories running and it was on the default setting in the information screen it decides it self To charge.

In models sold in UK it is not possible to select regen level.
The car automatially diverts excess power.. I have watched the screen with amps / volts and I can see constant -1 to -20 amps being diverted especially on flat roads, Uphill it pulls 10x to maintain speed
Drove 470 miles yesterday - started at 18% battery and being hilly in most parts, the battery went
18 - 22 - 11 - 0 - 11- 5%
