    MG4 in Australia

    Pity there isn't a separate forum heading for MG4 Australia, so there could be different topics within that heading that related to Australian conditions ..... or is there, and I'm just not clever enough to find it :rolleyes: My query relates to the energy/km for mild weather and cold weather...

    MG4 51kWh LFP Battery Health

    OK, if 90% of the battery capacity was the amount added to the battery to bring it up from 10% to 100%, then that value represents 100% of the energy added. To get from 90% to 100%, 0.1 would equal 9% so multiplying the 90% by 1.1 adds 9% to the 90% = 99%. Add 0.01 of 90% = 0.9%. 90% x 1.11 =...

    MG4 51kWh LFP Battery Health

    It will be interesting to see if the degradation of battery health bottoms out in the high 80% area, with occasional trips back up to the 90% region. As a general rule, I've found LFP cells don't lose capacity when treated well, that doesn't mean treating them with kid gloves, they like to...

    MG4 51kWh LFP Battery Health

    LFP cells have a very reliable SOC, you just need to know how to measure it. The battery isn't very old, but has been cycled and slow charged each time, so there just isn't any more room to store any added electrical energy. As far as efficiency, how far do you get out of your 51kwh battery...

    Th Loving it, all bedrooms should have that new car smell :) The wife has a crook foot at the moment, been that way for going on 2 yrs, so she is dependent on me to "go fetch" do the washing, empty the grey water and black water tanks as well as refilling the fresh water tank, specialist...

    MG4 51kWh LFP Battery Health

    Back on the 51 SOH, my theory about the true battery capacity ...... We arrived at The Royal Adelaide Hospital with 10% remaining battery and 2,000km on the clock, so we plugged into a Chargefox DC fast charger, this the invoice that was emailed to us Quick math calculation, from 10% to 100%...

    Crash due to Lane keep assist.

    The wife complained about the constant beeping .... so on one occasion I didn't turn LKA off .... in only a few kms she complained there was something wrong with the steering, it keeps jerking in her hands, so I turned LKA off and the beeping started up .... Naturally, I was to blame for setting...

    MG4 51kWh LFP Battery Health

    Apologies for the long post, feel free to skip over it if you have no interest in understanding how LFP cells die an early death Bypassed the BMS allowing some of the cells to discharge to 0v, then put a battery charger on the whole battery at higher than an amp or so until the low cells...

    MG4 51kWh LFP Battery Health

    Yet another piece of nonsense put out by the lead acid battery manufacturers and supported by the fossil fuel lobby. I still have customers that are using their LFP house battery in their caravan, 24/7 for over 12 yrs. Add to that, they are the field kitchen for their son's harvesting business...

    Bob and his wife decided they both should lose a little weight, and planned a joint diet program. His wife suggested that, to encourage them to stay on the diet, they should have a ‘cheat’ day once a week. After the first week, Bob’s wife brought home a KFC Family Meal Deal. Bob brought home his...

    Finally got the trailer home from the Pickles auction yard, tried the MG4 on it ..... doesn't fit .... too wide and too long o_O Check the specs provided by Pickles on the listing, the listed width is to the outside of the rails, not the inside where they go over the guards, the length includes...
