Added charger stop, appears unnecessary #377

Closed EVGrokker closed 7 years ago

EVGrokker commented 7 years ago

v 1.2.0 (15)

Car Data: X90D, Charger: 48, Wheels: 20, Tires: 0, Pano: 0, Rear CC: 0, Bat Life: 100 Device Info: iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 10_3_2 like Mac OS X Settings: Reserve SoC:20, Default SoC: 90, Region: 0, Units: 0 Version: 1.2.0 (15) Location: Unknown Trip: Sand Dollar Inn & Cottages, [7s9m1ofrzeerjucupahwt]

This is a round trip to a destination charging location (Seattle - Moclips WA).

The outbound segment shows no charging stop required, which seems reasonable.

The return segment along the same route includes a supercharging stop at Aberdeen WA, charging from 79% to 79%, which should not be included, since there's no charging delta.

I will now look into this trip to see why it is adding the two charging stops.

I see that the hinge is a charging point so somehow the optimizer is not giving credit for that.

Well I just tested this with V1.2 (17) and it works like you would expect. However I want to poke under the covers and make sure it is not coincidental.

This trip adds a stop in Centralia but doesn't actually charge. Arrival SoC: 56%, Departure: 56%

I tweaked it a bit in V1.2 (21). I also tested it with that MS85 with 19" wheels. Last time it worked for an X and then did not add a charger when needed for the MS.

While we are using weather in this case, it appears that depending on the weather we can find that an added charger is not really required. When the weather differs between Seattle and Portland, or more importantly near Centralia, the app sometimes finds that averaging between the two endpoints is not the same as getting forecast for the midpoint.

This will have to be watched now that V1.2 (30) is using a new server algorithm. I suspect this should be resolved or severely reduced at this point.

447 is a more current version of this issue.
