How low have you run your battery down to?

Not what do you normally plug in and charge up at, but how low have you ever gone?

Have you ever actually ran out of power?

I know most people look to start charging at 20% but have you ever been below 5%, 2% or even 0%?

Got into single figures a few times.

Equivalent to aiming to drive another 20 miles with the empty tank warning light on ...Why would anyone want to risk getting stranded? Definitely the best way to destroy EV battery.

There is a video on YouTube claiming it should go another 30km when it hits 0%.
 
Never ran out, lowest I've accidentally ended up with was 1%.

At that point the Mk1 would be flashing, all dashes on the range estimate and the reduced power icon will flash!

I have been a lot happier to run it below 5-10% but that's because I've learned the car and the dashes mean I've probably got 10 miles left worse case. Best case 15! Plus on my work commute there are chargers every 2-3 miles it seems.
