The previously high number of units going u/s will almost certainly reduce, as the usable voltage range has been limited to prevent overcharging and charging when unit is excessively discharged .
On the contrary, the unizs going u/s will increase now, that the criteria for shutdown (excessive discharge) is more strict. If the number reduces, then only because ground staff is now aware of the issue.
