I have been thinking about this for a while now and I haven't read anything about it. This might be a stupid question but I need to know.
It is no secret that 18650 cells/Tesla modules degrade with time. I assume that something inside the cars software knows how much degradation is there and how high of voltage to charge the batteries to. But is that true?
For all of those people using Tesla complete packs or individual modules, what is stopping them from using an external charger and charging degraded cells to the full 4.2 volts per cell?
Id really love an answer on this. Thanks!!!
