The Secret Screen - what does it mean?
« on: June 20, 2010, 04:09:50 PM »
I thought someone had asked this before, but I can't seem to find it. What do all the numbers mean on the "secret screen" (which you can turn on in the charging mode by holding down the tank button for 8 seconds)?
Apologies for the blurry pic.

I was told the State Of Charge (SOC) of the two banks of batteries. The closer these numbers match, the better.
I was in KC just last weekend with the smart car convention. If I had remembered that you live there, I would of looked you up. Drat!

That would have been cool, 9of30. 

So, which numbers are talking about on that screen:
H21:3. 309 L18:3. 298
V: 78  I:08 SOC: 20

I'm guessing the the "H" is for the higher bank (on the top of the frame) and that L is the lower bank.  What's V?  What's I? 

SOC = State of Charge, obviously.

I am guessing at all of this! Brian will reply.

H21:3. 309 L18:3. 298
V: 78  I:08 SOC: 20

The "H" indicates the high voltage. The "L" indicates the low voltage.

The number behind the letters show what cell it is. Follwed by the voltage of that particular cell.

V is for Volts. S is state of charge.

I is unknown by me.

Cool, I wanted to make it to KC for the smart car meet! Been there @ the GM Fairfax assembly plant many times. Check out www.smartcar451.com if you have time!

All the best,

3,950 miles round trip to KC. I was the only one who drove there in their smart car from California.
I prefer smartcarofamerica.com forums.

Cool video. Yeah, I am aware of SCOA. When they started censoring and monitoring private posts I created my own forum.

All the best,
