Of course, the fact that now pretty much every ride is taking the battery from 100% - 0% probably isn't helping?
No, definately not. Doing deep discharges should only be avoided and only be done when you have to cover the distance in a certain assist mode.
It's very noticeable that none of my Bosch equipped friends are experiencing similar problems in the cold though, or at least to nothing like the same extent.
What's weird is that to some extent Bosch-Users must experience the same behaviour in principal. All lithium-ion batteries work like that and as far as I know they use similar cells.
Battery has never been below 20%
That's good.
and normally charged up to 80 - 90 % and 100 just prior to a longer run.
That's not ideal. Lower storage soc is beneficial to battery health. High storage soc lets it degrade faster, especially under high temperatures. But empty soc is worst. So it's a bit tricky but storing it around 30% @ 10-15 degrees depending how much energy the bms drains should be ideal.
