    Charging Concerns with My Mini SE

    Personally, it's a preference. I charge mine up to 100% everyday since batteries tend to degrade in the long run anyways. But just make sure that when it reaches 20%, you'll charge it right away.

    getting WAY less than advertised Mini Electric range

    Curious how long you've had your Mini. Even in winter, I can usually squeeze out at least a mile per 1% battery around town, and more on highway runs. Have you checked your tire pressure lately? That can definitely affect range. Also, to get a better idea of what might be affecting your...
