I'm in agreement with Dsinned, use RAVCharge for reliable start timing.
It would be pretty sweet if fooljoe were able to work out a solution similar to the built-in timer function that calculated actual charge start times (based on selection of charge rate, SOC, and departure time) and picked...
From my experience with the RAV, I'd guess you will have almost no range anxiety within a few weeks. If you can, make sure you use the pre-climate settings when the weather is cold. I found only a small difference in GOM readings when using pre-climate effectively.
Now for the important...
Red Stripe, I travel over many of the same roads as you and see about the same efficiency. The hills you have to go over and the wind directions are likely the issue. Unfortunately, the only alternate routes for your commute are not comparable in speed. After 18+ months of driving those hills...
I had a failed attempt to post the other day, hopefully this works.
I just completed my 25K service and am curious what others are expecting for the next service interval. While there are no major services indicated for the RAV, it will still need tire rotations and the ever-critical fluid...
Has anyone taken their RAV in for service post-25K miles? I'm curious to know what price is being charged for these services. Also, ICE cars have periodic "large" services. I don't expect any such thing for the RAV, but I'm curious about service schedules that Toyota is recommending post-25K.
Thanks for the great info!
Here is some interesting cell test data, not strictly related to the RAV but shows the PD cell performance:

1. I have a converted Tesla EVSE that I use from time to time. The unit does not "hang" well, the cord is a little short, and it is somewhat inefficient to roll it up and put back in it's bag after charging. The wall mounted EVSE that I have at home is much more convenient in terms of...
I've called the Entune Support line. Their recommendation was for me to take the vehicle to a service center for diagnosis. It makes no sense to me that the number of people reporting a problem would all have the same vehicle-related problem at the same time. I left the conversation feeling...
I had a complete failure to charge last night. Today, I haven't been able to access the Charge Management feature in entune. Since I use RavCharge for my charging needs, I emailed fooljoe to see if RavCharge sent the start request (it probably did). This looks like an Entune-related issue...
