It's 100 degrees F here in Los Angeles. I drove my car for about an hour.
I checked the LEAF, and it shows the battery used 1% for battery conditioning.

Normally, after I charge, I check the stats, and it shows 0% for battery conditioning.
I believe after a charge the 'stat' display resets, and also that display is for operating the car, not plugged in.

Were you also using AC for the whole 1 hour drive?

Norton - you are correct. After a full charge, the Energy Information screen will reset everything to 0%. This is true for both my 2014 and 2015 Spark EVs. Anything less than a full charge just alters some of the numbers on the screen to account for the additional charge added to the battery.
