Hi Guys,
Tried to search the forum, but did not find an answer to a question.
Car : 2016, i3 REX [Bought in Canada]
If on coding to have REX started on demand, need to understand what happens in the scenario mentioned below.
a) Battery charge at 20%
b) Start REX
c) Going down hill on cruise OR slow moving traffic
Assumption : REX runs at constant RPM and does not frequently change that, except when large amount of energy is required.
Question : When in a situation as described by item 'c', would the excess power generated by REX charge the battery ?
If the answer to the above question is 'YES'.
Then what is the maximum level to which the REX will charge the battery ? 75% .....
The reason I ask this question, is that for temporary storage of any kind be it liquid/gas/charge all designers will implement a high and low water marks OR cut-in and cut-out. By extension the i3 should have such configurable options. If these are settable by coding it would help.
i3 REX gurus, your wisdom will help decide if coding is worth it.
Thanx in advance
