I may give that a try, but even with potentially Teslamate keeping it from sleeping sooner it still doesn't explain the 5% SOC drop over ~3hrs, and it oddly follows a pattern (especially when I'm at work since the schedule is usually pretty similar). Also to note, if I'm not driving the car and...

Is it not normal? I typically see it stays online for ~1h after drive before it sleeps. (based on my TeslaMate history within the last week it takes between 32m to 1h15m to go to sleep after any drive regardless of location.

First of all thanks for your input. Sentry is OFF at home. I only turn it on occasionally when going to places I felt not as safe. Since Sentry is always off unless I manually turn it on this shouldn't be the problem? How would one be able to diagnose this to the point where I can bring this...

I have experienced multiple times that when I'm away from home and leave the car parked the SOC can drop by as much as 5% over the course of 3 hours. This is the most consistent when I go to work, and here's a typical timeline (I only go to work like once every other week usually): 1. In the...

I had similar experience on a particular part of freeway I travel somewhat frequently, it suddenly thinks the speed limit is 55 instead of 65, and it will attempt to hard brake it down from whatever speed (usually ~75 without traffic) to 55 when there is no speed limit sign in sight, I’m guess...

I would expect the 12v battery to last 3+ years and definitely shouldn't die 9m into ownership. Did you receive the notification about replacing 12v battery before or after the incident? I believe this was a big deal that Tesla (kinda) addressed via software update a year or two ago by sending...

Make sure you also check your car's CCS compatibility like shown below:

Southern CA home TOU rate is $0.21 off peak, with SC being $0.29 off peak and $0.58 during peak...

For ICE car on road trip you can usually beat the estimated travel time by simply pressing down the gas pedal and fill up when it gets dry. It saves time but you get more exhausted over long drive (plus need to watch for cops lol) For electric though, the faster you go the less range and the...

Just tested mine out, delivered 5/29 (2 days earlier than originally promised). Went to an EA station with 13% SOC, been driving for more than an hour prior on a 75F day but no precondition otherwise, charging at ~145kW until 40% then slows down gradually to ~100kW around 50% where I stopped...

Placed Harumio order 5/19, got shipping notice 5/25, and DHL estimate delivery 5/31!

Purchased mine for the upcoming road trip from LA to Yellowstone for the extra peace of mind, don't want to be stuck in long line with no choice in the hot summer days! Would be happy if I don't need to pull it out though.

I kinda figured if I were to ask my friend to ship it for me (and I order it myself from Tesla) it might be more expensive to ship FedEx or DHL. Also now to think of it, while the "new" method of not requiring account info is more convenient and more secure, it allows the vendor to use non...

I did end up placing an order through Harumio. It's now $309 inclusive so minus the actual adapter price of $240ish the service and shipping combined is just over $60. I do have a friend in SK but not really saving much there to order myself plus friend still need to do leg work so decided to...

Same boat took delivery last day of Sept 2021 and has CCS enabled as well! I'm tempted to buy from SK for a road trip a month from now.
