What's my best charging method for optimum battery maintenance and life?

[Arnie1]

I use my garage kept R1S 2 to 3 times a week for local driving...less than 100 miles.

Im debating which charging method is best for optimum battery maintenance and life.

I can choose daily and plug in each night and charge to 70% or choose custom (my current setting) and charge randomly between 20 and 80 % to 80%.

Which is best?

Maintain 70% daily or as often as you can. They way you're doing it now is too much headache.

I found my electrical bill was much higher when keeping it plugged in all the time. The BMS gets greedy with the power. I keep at 70%, but only plug in once every couple of days for an hour or so to keep the charge. (its a weekend vehicle for me)

Set a daily charging limit of 70% and keep ut plugged in when not in use.
