Logs emailed to you while charging. Screenshot attached of the data it’s pulling.

Sidebar: any intentions to add this information to the UI in CarPlay? Would love to be able to view charge rates among battery temperature on the maps overlay.

Definitely. I need to think about the best way to visually represent this information. Usually the charger will show kWh being charged instead of A/V so I'd like to turn this into a single point metric in some way.

Added two more parameters (SHA: 9ca4f41):

  • BOLT_HVBAT_CHRG_CNT: How many times you've charged the battery.
  • BOLT_HVBAT_CHRG_LVL: The current charging level (e.g. DC fast charging vs A/C)

Based on your charge logs, it looks like the charge values were mostly always the same value, so I'm not 100% sure if they're correctly correlating to charge speed (which often has some amount of fluctuation). Where you charging on a public charger or at home for the recorded session?

I was charging at home so I’m not surprised it was a constant level for the time period. I’ll keep an eye on it when charging elsewhere.

Photo attached of newest features. Seems to be working great!
