Battery Health app Recurrent

[JSeis]

Curious if anyone uses Recurrent?

I checked it out on our MME via the reports it creates and was pleasantly surprised that it squared up with my experience. With 34,000 miles our AWD Select has performed with battery range at/above EPA estimate. Those miles are daily commuting of nearly 90 miles round trip per day + a half dozen road-trips of 600-2000 miles.

No, for 2 reasons.

1) Privacy. Search for Recurrent and you'll find they use another company to log in, and your log in info may not be secure. https://www.macheforum.com/site/thr...r-battery-degradation-study.6289/#post-287861

2) You're about to get locked out of the app by Ford... No 3rd party access that is unapproved by them. https://www.macheforum.com/site/thr...ur-fordpass-account.13893/page-18#post-555948

Thanks for the heads up.. was wondering about the data acquisition and.. Why wouldn’t FordPass do similar?

Don't understand the FordPass question.

You'll definitely want to delete the car in Recurrent and change your FordPass password. Search for Recurrent or Smartcar for many other discussions on this.

Before you do, though, can you share any more detailed screenshots of the reporting they share with you? Your screenshot above is the most I've seen so far and it doesn't seem like much?? It's not showing battery measurements, for instance. It seems to just look at the guess-o-meter and the odometer??

FordPass doesn’t give you summary data. It gives you some discrete event data. Theoretically it “knows” distance, speed, temperature, charge level, charge rate, discharge/demand rate and etc. it’s not rocket science to do the statistical math to calculate performance over time as it relates to battery “performance”.

It said 57 data points though those could well be discrete analysis (each point).

Thanks for sharing the additional screens.

It looks like Recurrent's dataset has very few attributes at this point, regardless of what they claim or imply.

A spreadsheet with a timestamp, your odometer, and guess-o-meter range/% could produce everything above except for where they'll (eventually) incorporate comparisons to other Mach-Es if they could accumulate enough data.
