    I've installed TP and added the pids for hybrid batteries but when is the correct time to test them? Is it while riding along? when it's been standing overnight? After a run, when I stop?
    Also, does it give estimated battery life or is that just Dr Prius?
    Cheers

    Any or all of the above. The most useful feature of Torque Pro is the ability to log the parameters every second or so as you drive down the road. Look for "Start Logging" under the Gear icon in Realtime Information. That will create CSV file that you can load into a spreadsheet for further analysis.

    It does not have a Life Expectancy Test like Dr. Prius has, but I wouldn't take what Dr. Prius tells you about life expectancy as gospel either.

    I found the 'start logging' button and initiated it but if it's created a csv file, I can't find it on my android phone.

    I believe I just selected "Email logs" right under "Start Logging" and sent them to my own E-mail address. You also hit "Stop Logging" at some point too, correct?
