James/Jim/JLM (!),

Had not known that the different battery chemistries might invite different optimal charging / charge maintenance strategies. (It almost feels like there's a "memory effect" joke in here somewhere, just waiting to get out...!)

Also, while probs could have guessed that the battery componentry ("ingredients"?) would effect charging rates, I definitely did not know that this can affect *output* rates as well, as you describe vis-a-vis the "regular" Model 3 compared to the Performance models. Very interesting.
