This morning, while plugged in overnight, the car charged to 100% charge state. I did not consciously set the requested charge state to 100%, as I always keep it at 80%. That's the first time in 4 months that I observed that. Both the delayed % and 'charge now' % are normally at 80%.
A pal with Blazer EV has had this happen a couple times too, maybe once a month for him. (and in fact, he reports that his Blazer did this last night also)
This was not a case where I requested 80% and it went to 83%, i.e., some small variation from the requested number. The car clearly wanted to go to 100%.
Reasons I could think of that could cause this:
A) I somehow set it to 100%. I really don't think I did that. However, upon looking after it reached 100%, I see it is set to 100%. Unless there is a record of the requested states, I can't prove/disprove this.
B) I used a public charger yesterday, and went to near to 80% using that charger. That Shell L2 charger was much stronger (11.5 kw) than my weak 20 Amp L2 (4.8 kw) I have at home. So maybe the car's math estimates on how to reach 80% is based on the last charge rate, and errantly charged longer based on those recent rates of charge.
C) Maybe the car had some reboot/reset event, to trigger a 'fall back' to defaults. I don't know really that the default is 100%.
Has anyone else experienced this, or have insight into it? It's not a huge issue, but I don't want 100% charging as a normal state, naturally.
UPDATE: it wasn't A B or C. It was a power app "Optiwatt" that did that. It cant seem to master the 80% vs 100% setting on the Equinox EV specifically.
