We interested your video, how about joining us?

Thank you for the informative and personal video on the topic. I really appreciate that.

your video is nice， how about join our affiliate？

A CPL filter would really improve the quality since it would get rid of the windshield reflections.

What kind of AC charger brand do you use ?

Nice Atto3 videos. I don't think you should monitor degradation doing the calc you showed because it involves using % which has errors. Instead use the Ah capacity like you showed on your OBD2 screen. It gives you the current capacity vs the "factory" capacity. Interesingly it looks like you redcued 1 Ah in capacity just from this charge alone. So maybe some errors there in that estimate. How old was your battery at time of filming? Looks like you are around 98% state of health.

I've noticed my BYD dashcam footage quite pixelated too, thought maybe I was just dumb and hadn't found a setting but nope, seems they use a really low bitrate. Would be nice if they could increase it hey?

Great video. Thank you. I would be interested in a follow up video on the gear which you took with you.

I’m interested in your video, how about cooperate with us!

Exactly the info i was wanting as im from SA and want to camp in my new Atto 3. Thanks!👍

What's the app name?

hello, is there any way limit power charging on my byd, currently its on 6-7kwh and when its plugged in power goes out in my house as it cant handle that much power usage

Sorry for the poor audio quality in parts of the video. Please switch on closed captions if having difficulty hearing me.

Good result 😎

Love the diversity of native flora at Pangarinda garden, especially at this time of year when the plants are blooming beautifully. Also, I highly recommend Wellington Hotel for a meal .. great view, and really good selection on the menu. Really nice drive, quiet and comfortable in the atto 3 🤍

Can someone summarize? 😊

One thing I failed to mention in this video is that driving information is usually displayed in the black strip across the top. (Speed, gear position, pedal, lights, vin number, time and date.)

hello! excellent video, what resolution is cam?

At 0% you should see 2.5v per cell But i guarantee you that overall voltage will be higher ~ 2.8-2.9 with some cells getting to 2.4v (unbalanced battery) That mean that 0% displayed is not real 0% SOC One year ago we get update that changed SOC display (mostly because at around 4-5% before that update funny things happened to many drivers) and then when i get accidentally to 0% i get voltage 2.0-2.2 v per cell. When we get to 0% now there is around 2-2.5% in reserve. And value you get is only usable capacity after deduction of reserve, cell imbalance and little bit of degradation.

Does the dash come standard in all byd cars or do you have to get it as an extra? Thanks

So was it filmed on OEM BYD dash cam or you have a completely separate cam?

I wont be around in 20 years, so one would out live me. 😅

Just wondering if the 'granny charger' that came with the Atto 3 has the option to alter the amps, for example drop from 10 amp to 7 amp? Thank you.

I have a problem in charging my yuan plus ( Atto3) using wallmount home charger of BYD it give only 3kw / hr however it is 32A 7Kw and gives me this message (Note: The vehicle has preset charging function, which can be set on the multimedia system).

Why would you faf around getting an expensive seperate GPO(s) installed when your EV Battery could probably power your whole house at least for some hours. All you need to do is get a Chinese / Taiwanese Hybrid Solar Inverter and plug it into the PV inputs of say Mpp Brand Inverters they go up to 600volts. You can get 10kW one for about $1000. Then just get a two way switch installed on your powerboard and switch over when you need to.

Yeah you switched it off. You try it in school zone will almost brake from 60 to 40 when you don't want it. Like outside school hours

Would have Loved to see a Deap Dive into the converted car! Grate Video..

An ozzys been building EVs for 10 yrs! Didnt your government think of funding a OZ EV ?😮

Great video and congrats on the Dolphin i had one on order same spec but two weeks before delivery the BYD Seal was announced and i decided the Seal Dynamic was way too good to pass on it and absolutely love it

I have a home battery system that is LFP. Its nominal voltage is 25.6v (3.2 x 8). The system balances the cells during charging. It’s interesting to watch the cells during charge. The cells stay balance (4-10mv) without the need for any balancing happening. Under load there is some variation above 10mv in which case the balancing is activated. When the cells approach 100% capacity the cell variation increases and balancing is occurring across a range of cells. At this point it’s difficult to tell what the cell voltages are as balancing is working overtime. Once the battery is at 100%, the cells settle quickly as my system always has a load on the battery to feed the 230v system through the inverters connected to the battery. This would not be the case with an EV as there is no real load required, just the minimal load to feed the 12v system. After full charge has occurred, the cell delta is usually 4-8mv within a minute. I can see parallels to the battery monitoring you have found. I find this all very interesting.

Can anyone please tell me if this will show me the status of the car when I am connected to a public charger? Presumably I will need to be in Bluetooth range....unless there's another way of doing this? Thanks.

Just worked out a better way to calculate available capacity although it's much the same as what I did in the video. kWh charged / % charged x 100 = usable capacity. So for me it's 55kWh/95.7% x 100 = 57.47kWh. Then can find percentage of original capacity (ie. 100/60.4 x 57.47 = 95.15%) you could probably - or + 1% from this too as only displayed the nearest kWh (rather than Watt hours). Also dependant on the remaining SoC being accurate. Also assuming that 60.4kWh was the original usable capacity (which I never measured). This will be far more interesting once I've done the same test on future calibrations, as I can then compare. (If there are any mathematicians out there feel free to correct my maths.)

Would just few solar panels make the car stores the solar power?

Excellent info 😎

formula clarification pleae at 6:16 of your video you have a calculation of 55KWh = 2.5KWh = 57.5 where did you get the 2.5 value from ?

Hi Mate I’m looking on the IOS App Store, there is so many apps that contain the name of car scanner, can you please advise the full name or give a link

love your video however we cant see to communicate with the seal model the same way.

Please note: The OBD2 device I'm using is Android compatible, there is a different model that is compatible with iOS. Please check if the OBD2 blue tooth device compatible with your mobile. Re uploaded this because, previous version had a couple of errors 😳.

BYD won the world championship 2023...in depreciation.

Great information regarding state of charge and calibration. I might add the lower the amperage during charge the better it is for the health of the battery. I can share the information from electrochemical and also research on EV battery from a University .

2 thumb for you good day

A very good thing. I dream of using it to operate my split air conditioning system for heating that I installed last year. And recharge the vehicle battery with solar modules from the roof and a small storage buffer😉.

Thanks for making that video, I am also an ATTO3 owner and enjoy travelling around in WA.

Very handy but the real game changer is going to be V2H .vehicle to home. This technology will power the entire house gor several days directly from your EV.

Thanks for the good consumption overview. With V2L it's camping 2.0😉. Beautiful area in South Australia, I only know NSW, was there for 6 weeks over 40 years ago. Greetings from Germany.

We use say 5 to 10 kWh per day unless tripping. So if I follow correctly, if not concerned about GOM accuracy, the best recharging practice for our Atto 3 is at up to 32 amps in the range 40% to 60% and only to 100% pre lon0ger trips and <10% - 100% twice a year?

Hello EV switch, thank you for your detailed presentation, I couldn't have said it better. Sorry for German language, my English is bad, it just takes too long. A translator for reading is faster. We live in Northern Germany. It looks exactly the same here with all the wind turbines and cornfields. Für meine Frau und mich möchte ich einen BYD Dolphin kaufen. Seit 3 Jahren fahren wir einen VW Golf 8 Plug in Hybrid. Der fährt sehr gut, aber das häufige Laden ist lästig bei dem kleinen Akku. Der BYD kann ja auch V2L, Du hast ja ein Video darüber gemacht. Und die BYD haben langlebige FTP-Akkus, bekommen wir durch viel Fahren nie kaputt. Und sicherer als ein NMC ist der LFP allemal. Hier gibt es nur wenige BYD, und das technische Wissen darüber ist sehr rah. Deshalb freue ich mich, einen technikversierten Menschen wie Dich, der sich mit der BYD Technik gut auskennt, gefunden zuhaben. Es hört sich an, als wärest Du mit dem Auto sehr zufrieden, das ist für mich ein gutes Zeichen. Ich schaue mir Deine Videos gern an, Du hast eine ruhige, verlässliche Art, die Dinge zu erklären. Mach bitte weiter so👍. Gruß Ulli

Good info as I will soon be travelling from Newcastle(-ish)NSW to Adelaide, returning home via Mt Gambia and GOR. Regarding the RAA charger at Beachport, is it co-funded by S.A. Gov't? If so, I would have thought that a condition of funding required it to be available for public charging as is the case here in NSW. Might be worth following up.

was wondering with your Atto3 how you run your fridge when on the road, I do have a car fridge that runs of a built in battery, but would need to be plugged in from time to time...

as wondering version of the Atto 3 ou have, I have an Atto 3 and m SOC at 100% is 480km as I have the extended battery....could you please let me know which battery you have and which year model as mine is a 2023 Model Atto 3 thanks, but great video
