Set the max battery state-of-charge

Hi Forum,
do you know how to set the maximum state-of-charge of the battery ?

I have a Tesla since several years and it is a fundamental tool to avoid ageing of the battery (i.e., limit the max SOC to values below 100%).

Thanks !

Mario

The basic rules are that for LiIon technology the total cycles is what counts, generally 5 20% charges is same as one 100%. Exceptions are IF you leave the battery at max charge or max empty. The battery is not charged to 100% and not drained to 0. So I'd say as long as you are driving daily don't worry about it. If you plan to store for a few weeks try to leave it close to 50% as ideal storage.

So in a way doing shallow charges is not a bad idea. Does the I Pace have a "hill descent" mode or something that allows leaving some room in the battery for max regen?

I am unaware of a hill descent mode - I don't see it on any of the settings.Does plugging it in every night, even if only running it down to 70-80% shorten the life of the battery or effect the 'memory' of the battery, reducing usability of the full 90 kWh (~84kWh)?

If you run through the options on the instrument panel you will find the meter that gives you instantaneous energy consumption. I think it is listed as kWh/100 mike, but I cannot remember for sure. I’ll look the next time I drive
