Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I was thinking about this in context of my daily commute. It's about 9 miles each way, so 18 total. I could theoretically charge once every two weeks, and if that's all I use it for, I could discharge down close to 0. Obviously there's risk of traffic and such, but that goes with gas as well. Seems like if you treated your battery charge like you treat a tank of gas, you'd be good. FWIW, it's not good for engines to run on gas tanks less than 1/4 tank due to increased capability to bring water into the engine. Could treat your battery like that and only charge based on (1) need for range, then (2) <25% charge.
