Tips for charging electric vehicles in winter: Say goodbye to false power and improve low-temperature endurance

Recharge your electric car in winter, don't let the battery "get more and more empty"! I've used these methods for five or six years and have seen how they work. 

Do you do the same: when it shows full power, you lose a gear within two kilometers of riding? It's really not that the battery isn't good, it's the door to charging in winter that you haven't touched.
I'll share all of my experience today, including 4 practical tips and 1 advice on choosing a gear to help you stay afloat this winter.

I. Four charging tips to stay away from "fake electricity"

1. Let the battery "warm up" before charging

I've tried, coming back from outside on a cold day to charge directly, often jumping the green light when it's more than 80% charged. Later, the car repairman told me
 that I had to keep the car indoors for 1-2 hours before charging the battery. Since doing this, the power supply has solidified and the loss of power has slowed.

2. Don't download fast, slow charging is a good bet.

I used a fast charge last winter to save time, but the battery was especially undurable during that time. Later, the original slow charge was replaced, the small current was charged slowly,
 and the battery state was much stable.
 I recommend that everyone try not to use fast charging in winter to hurt the battery.

3. Find the right place to charge.

I once charged outside on a rainy day. The charger kept getting hot. I didn't dare to do it anymore. They now find a dry and ventilation place,
and they don't charge the battery right after riding, so let the battery slow down for a while. 

4. Don't wait for the battery to run out before charging.

I now get into the habit of charging when my power drops to about 30%. I ran out of batteries once during the winter, and it turned out to be very slow to charge,
 and the battery capacity felt a bit lower after that. Shallow filling and spreading is really useful.

2. The charger must be selected

Regular chargers are really prone to problems in the winter. I bought a generic one that was often unfilled and hot. Then I switched to a better one and realized the difference was so great.
There are three things to look for in selecting a charger:

1. Safety protection cannot be few: overpressure and overflow protection is basic, and short circuit protection is also necessary;

2. Compatibility is better: regardless of lithium or lead acid, 48V or 72V can be used: after-sales to be reliable:

3. It's best to opt for a long warranty so that someone can take care of a problem.

III. These details to be aware of

In addition to charging methods, daily maintenance is also important:

✅ In winter, try to park the car indoors, and don't let the battery stay outdoors overnight. Check the charging interface regularly, and dry out any dust or water vapor in time;

✅Loose interfaces should be treated immediately, don't wait for oxidation to repair them;

✅ If you don't use your car for a long time, remember to charge it once a month:

✅ Try to have someone watch while charging. Don't leave it alone all night.

In fact, it is normal for electric vehicle battery life to decline in winter,
but as long as the method is correct, it is entirely possible to keep the battery in good condition.
I've been using these methods for so long and the battery has always been stable. Try it. Your electric car should do well this winter as well.
