Charging Math Question

[RKinWA]

So I notice on my Electrify America summary, it shows the energy delivered, and ending state of charge, but it doesn't show starting state of charge. Is there any way to derive that number from the info provided?

You can find the start/end SOC in the EA App. Click on Account > Charge History > Public Charges.

Or go into FordPass and look at the charging logs. Vehicle > Charging > Charge Logs

You're right, it shows right on the top charge start and charge end, excellent, thank you!

take battery size --> assume 88kwh extended
38/88=43% addded
80%-43%=37% starting

Excellent, thank you, and lines up with the actual history @hybrid2bev enlightened me to

Also to add, if you are charging more than once per month sign up for the $4 a month plus pass which will pay for itself in the first charge, and lower your pricing to 36 cents per kilowatt hour.

I've thought about it. I use the DCFC about 4 times per month when the weather is nice, which is about 4 months of the year, not sure if the math works out to a $48 savings or not.

It's on a per month basis so you can just sign up here and there when you need it. I had it for my road trip I took last month and I already canceled it.

Oh nice, OK then it definitely makes sense, thanks!

I think the savings from 1-2 charging sessions tends to be enough to make it worth it. Definitely should if you can set a reminder to cancel at the end of road trip season.

I just did the math for yesterday, I would have saved $10 just yesterday (minus the $4) but yeah, definitely makes sense even if I did it 2 days per month.
