Hey guys and gals-
A guy with handle "News Coulomb" on YouTube described a work around to set your max battery charge to pretty much whatever you want it to be within the range of 40% to 100%.
There is a setting for "priority charge to 40%". This will always bring you from whatever you are at to a consistent 40% starting point, then pause.
Also turn on "charge during off peak only".
Once you know (though experimentation) how many hours it takes with YOUR plug to get from 40% to your desired SOC.....
Simply define your "off peak time of day" for precisely that length of time. Then your Bolt will stop charging.
BRILLIANT! I knew there had to be a built in way to do this!
Example: After three experiments, you found out it takes 6h 30 minutes to charge at home from 40% to 80%.
As long as you always deplete to below 40%, "priority charge" to exactly 40%.
Then define "off peak" as midnight to 6:30am.
Turn on charge "off peak only".
D-O-N-E
Brilliant and really pretty easy if you have a routine.
