Home Charging

I dont think Ather app can give you the power consumed while charging , these energy meters are used to measure the exact wattage consumed by an electrical appliance in realtime. @rajeshkav your inputs please.

Ather keeps track of the power usage as it’s used for the Ather One reimbursement. The data is already there, only a question of “if & when” Ather can make it available to the owner on a on-demand basis instead of the quarterly email reimbursement notifications.

One small clarification needed ASAP from fellow Ather Owners charging at home regularly like @hemanth.anand!
Does the cooling fan stay on throughout the charging process (10%-100%) while charging at Ather Home Pod…? As my vehicle cooling fan located near the dashboard was on all the time while charging!
TIA

Yes that normal

The above two are the changes regarding fans in the latest update. While I’m able to see the change number 2, regarding number 1 (which is actually your question), frankly speaking I’m not sure. My scooter will be on charge overnight in the basement and I’ve not checked if the fan is switching off after 80%

On point 1, probably high state is termed on current which is going into the battery. In my case, I see the fan is turned off after 100%.

Regarding #1, same I did not get chance to observe
Regarding #2, yesterday after I drove for 13 kms in a stretch, when only 5 km range was left, noise started and it did not stop. I assumed that it was Motor fan noise. Today morning when traffic was lesser, was going at higher speed than previous 2 days. After some 6 kms, again noticed motor fan noise.

What is this #2 for?

Hi gud mrng all,
regularly i charge vehicle morning @8 for 2 hours… All of sudden today morning charging point colour shows RED :roll_eyes: not able to charge vehicle.
Friends Wat b the reason :thinking:

if it is good all this time and only today?

BESCOM must have messed up with the line

  • before you observed this - is there any power loss

probably when this happens - if there are any works in ur locality they will draw power from different line apart from regular line - even this can be issue (just from my observation)

Had the exact same issue in the first week after delivery. Summer heat had just kicked in and my entire neighborhood would turn on their air-conditioners. Power would eventually trip and come back but my point was red. Power would again trip late night and come back - point would turn green. Power sometimes would comeback only at 6am and so I had to remember to not rev too much so I have enough charge for the ride back home.

What are good tips to prolong the life of the battery? Looking to hear from existing owners especially people who were using some kind of EV before…

Below is what we usually hear regarding laptops or mobile phones…

  1. Charge often without leaving it to below 10%?
  2. Charge slow
  3. Dont charge it to full… (I guess Ather already utilizing only 2.4 Kwh instead of the actual capacity of 2.7 Kwh. In that case, this might not be applicable)
