Separate names with a comma.
It is generally absorbed by the host. A Tesla battery is 50-75 kWh and you can expect that they will arrive with the battery completely depleted...
The absolute max energy that you could draw (if charging 100% of the time) is 1,000 kWh or $100 at $0.1kwh. Now you know that you cannot charge...
Seattle has a high cost of living. In such areas it can be close to impossible to get the prices down.
You say "not long term" but you don't have a clear timeline of when you are moving out. If you own the place, then you reap some benefit of your...
Is this a prank? Take your car for service.
yeah, he misses the obvious "elephant in the room", stop whining about your range when it is 3-4x your daily driving needs. He misinterprets...
This guy is very charismatic and engaging, but it looks like he is doing his video editing on a VCR. [ATTACH]
Interesting, I'd never thought about where the limit is for warm vs hot. Internet says 125-135F 57C is too hot to touch for most people. I'd...
If the plug does not get hot and just the cable, then it is probably just a normal thing. Wires are usually rated for 75C-90C 167F-194F which is...
They are hard wired, replacing them is not worthwhile. If you are preparing for a second Tesla, then install a 14-50 outlet where your second...
Drag force at 20 mph is about 40N, and 140N for 40mph, but actually we are probably talking about more like 5-10mph for coasting. If you have a...
I'm not sure how you are reading what I said, but the "hard braking" will be more efficient. The energy is lost to air resistance which is...
I think it is nonsense. Lets say that you go 45 -> 20, then you recapture 25 mph worth of energy. Then you will coast at 20 mph to your stop....
Not from Seattle, but the work is done by electricians. Tesla has a list, HomeAdvisor, etc.
I'm more surprised by the number of people who come on here and they expect a "particular answer" to their problem, or they come on here to...
Using trip planning software like ABRP (A Better Routeplanner) or Tesla's route guidance avoids this blunder. Glad you figured it out, but sad...
Actually, you can drive to the SC (got confused if you can drive or not), that is the best even if the tow is free. Like the other user said, get...
Requires service refers to Tesla's warranty service at their service center. You'll need to contact Tesla to arrange for your car to be towed to...
Maybe if it is 73 degrees outside, then the seat heater will use more power. Maybe not. Otherwise, which uses more power, to heat a small 5 oz...
It is an iPhone "feature" called "Attention Aware Features".
You trip is 5 hours 49 minutes according to ABRP, but your charging is 17 minutes. You should also know that you need more than a regular 120v...
Set the car's acceleration to "Insane+" and it will heat the battery, in addition to preconditioning. I'd guess you might already be on this mode,...
You can't do precise math with such generous assumptions. Even if your battery is warmer, then you still have the cabin to heat (let alone the...
You are not properly comparing the numbers. The "miles of range" are a very generous estimate. It is not uncommon to use 22 "miles of range" for a...
By "charge every day", I assume you mean at home and at the supercharger, because if you mean you don't charge at home, then that is your issue....
I was thinking more in terms of people who have never even heard about how a supercharger is intended to be used. Even though I knew that it...
So you would say that you drive in an ordinary day more than 200 miles? Realistically, at some point your daily driving becomes indistinguishable...
In terms of deciding between the two cars, I don't think that "50 miles range" should be a significant factor. The Model S right now is geared...
There is a tool called "scan my tesla" that people use for this. I don't use it myself, requires some kind of hardware adapter.
Legal disclaimer: DIY electrical work requires "permitting" in most city jurisdictions and while most don't bother with them, there are insurance...
That's a good site for apartments. #1 listed at $1/hour though.
Looks like there is only one advertised on Zillow as such. https://www.zillow.com/b/allusion-at-west-university-houston-tx-5YLtvH/ That part of...
Don't know about your exact area, but it is common in less dense cities (ie. not near the coast) to offer both apartments with garages and...
Its a nice theory, but I'm suspicious of people who generate precise technical explanations for "something that happened". Who is to say the car...
A lot more are probably wrong turns and missed exits. In a lot of places, a missed exit or wrong turn can cost your 20 miles. If 20 miles was your...
Preconditioning when not plugged in doesn't affect the battery other than using power from it.
The reason for that is that the car's cooling systems are not operating while the car is being towed without a driver. It is a dumb idea for...
Right
I think what you are missing is that the "length of time" that you precondition affects how much energy it uses. You are "preconditioning" when...
It happens a lot. For that reason, I always turn the car's climate on - this is useful anyways about 75-90% of the time.
If you have a supercharger 15 miles away, there is nothing to worry about with "vampire drain" if that is even a real thing for most Tesla owners....
There is no such page, sorry. Wifi is just for automatic updates and config. Like others have mentioned, we are not sure what point you are at in...
Seems like something that needs a video, if you are not afraid of further damage for another test. It is probably a problem with the charging...
He is just being a politician - doesn't cost him anything to say "best" instead of very good. Not as important with Elon, but with those GM people...
oh no, I've had my car for 2 years and didn't know about the lumbar button. I'll have to see how that works.
Just watched a video with someone commenting how great the seats were in their Model 3. Since Tesla's don't have exact model numbers, this must be...
This is the same as to say that pre-conditioning warms the battery and provides for more efficient operation. It takes heat from the main...
Yeah, basically everyone who buys a Tesla is surprised by how much the range drops in the winter. What is happening is that electric vehicles...
"doesn't excite me" is a very odd thing to say. I'm guessing that you mean to say that you have "range anxiety" about living off the 5-15 outlet....
How are the "affordable" Model S cars ie. 2012-14 cars with 128-150k miles? Reason I'm asking is because I meet a lot of people who would like to...
