What are your EV charging habits? (beehaw.org)

I mostly charge up at home (240V receptacle and L2 EVSE), and I limited my charge to stop at 80%. I've heard competing ideas about if that's really necessary, but I usually drive <50mi each day, so I figured I don't need to full range anyway. When we're planning to take a trip or something with the car, I will charge fully the night before.

It helps to know the type of car. I charge my F150L to 85% most of the time. Ford recommends 90% and sets that as the limit from the factory.
