Re: Battery Degradation 2020 Bolt Relative to 2017 Bolt EV

Re: Battery Degradation 2020 Bolt Relative to 2017 Bolt EV

Paul: once again, a great report!

Once we get our new batteries (are we getting new batteries or are only our battery cells being replaced?) what measurements can we make when new so that we can measure degradation over time?

Re: USB ports

Purchase one of those cigarette lighter accessories that provides higher capacity USB ports and plug it in under the front dash.
