I wonder why would we need to go thru this whole charging procedure just because the MME toke a bit of time to deliver. So it sat for awhile and if the BMS was working as it should why exactly should that be a problem? The 12V should be fine and no need to bring it back to life as the BMS should have looked after that? The fact that it may have not is the reason to try to bring it back to life correct?
This is the most interesting real life of all your tests. What about different states? What happens when plugged in to 240V, 120V EVSE. I would say the LVB is not fine if it needs to be brought back to life on a bench after only one year. Maybe just have caught it in time?Okay first result is in, did not take long at all! The LVB voltage started at 12.322V at 12:43 pm (about 12.13V at the bottom of that first curve). By 2:05:36 pm, 11.885V, the DC/DC converter came on to charge LVB and save the day! So for this first test, MME resting, no charge plug, MME off, frunk light off, about 45 degrees F, about 11.9V is the magic number for the converter to come on. The frunk light did come on, when the DC/DC converter started. See graphs below.
I agree 30% soc sounds low.Alright, so 1.37 hrs x 4A = only 5.5 Ah? Your discharge rate is approximately 0.1C, so I would estimate the battery was drained down to about 30% SoC before it turned on (assuming voltage reading was accurate). That would mean the total battery capacity is only about 8 Ah? Seems way too low.
