Are you talking about the line on the chart? That’s not at 142, it’s between 139 and 140, and it is different than the constant used by the car to map kW to charge ‘speed’ and to map kWh of energy added to km of range added. That constant is 219 Wh/mi for SR+ (136.08 Wh/km) which is lower than...

If you add ~10.5 kWh to the battery (according to the charge screen) and then immediately use all of that energy, the trip meter will show ~10kWh used. This 5% loss is automatic. Nothing to do with vampire drain, just how the car works. It will then take you another 10.5kWh (according to the...

Ya, that’s 136.08 DC iWh/km. It’s a smaller number for oWh/km though, which is what the trip meter presumably is ‘measuring’. i = in o = out

Ya my assumption here is I that one (the?) reason the meter reading is using a smaller constant than the charge screen is to account for average losses on the output side (which includes regen coming back in and being inefficient, as well as general battery in/out inefficiency). Much like it’s...

@TimothyHW3 he doesn't sound confused at all. @TomLee, what you are 'measuring' here with that technique is all losses -- which is vampire drain PLUS losses going in/out of the battery (any drivetrain inefficiency or regen inefficiency) while driving. With this method you would get more...

My curl command that worked (I think) had: -F "token=$access_token" "https://owner-api.teslamotors.com/oauth/revoke" What are you trying? EDIT: Hmm... I can't remember if that worked or an iOS shortcut that required a further tweak. I do remember there being some small difference vs what the...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Maybe something to do with form data vs JSON command? I'm just using curl with form data. Just tried it right now, vent, close, vent, close ... all worked. Window status changed as per fd_window, etc. in vehicle_state.

Tried it and window_control worked just fine with only command=[vent|close] with no lat/long specified or included at all. e.g. open: /window_control?command=vent close: /window_control?command=close ... but as actual form data, not in the URL. It does seem to pass it along in the URL to the...

It’s not EQUALLY as fast. Stop saying that, it’s incorrect. You’ve already stipulated this in prior posts. “Comfortable” will equate to some temperature warmer or cooler than it currently is. “Auto” will taper at some point, thus delaying getting to that ‘comfortable’ temp, even if...

Ha, perhaps if you are across the country they figure you shouldn’t vent the windows since you don’t know if it’s pouring rain :D. ... I may play with this today and report my findings if lat/long matter. Thanks again!

Again, agreeing with me. ALMOST the same thing. So if you want the absolute fastest, you do it the way people are making fun of and say has no effect. It has an effect. That’s my point. No, because it tapers to not overshoot once it get close, it doesn’t do it as fast as possible. To reach it...

You say I’m speculating and probably wrong, then you actually agree with me and say it probably tapers. It tapers to not overshoot. If you want to get from 10C to 20C the absolute fastest, it would be faster to set it to HI, then to set it to 20C, because of the taper that you just agreed with...

It’s a convenience feature to have the speed set to your desired offset. If you don’t want that, set a large negative offset and you’ll get initial speed to your current speed. Easy. You can do it both ways. I like it the way it is.

Awesome. So I had the command URL guessed, but they’ve got a few extra params in there in addition to ‘command’. Oh, and I tried vent/close ... but with ‘state’ not ‘command’. I was THIS close :) What’s the purpose of lat/long? Does it store location-based memory of the setting??

Try a plug at someone else’s house as well, just to gather one more data point. If it doesn’t work at another location then it’s gotta be the “charger” (mobile connector), if it does work, save yourself a trip to the SC and fix whatever is wrong at home. Question on par with “did you turn it...

Well, for a BBQ grill this actually can be true. It could also be true for a gas oven or electric oven, depending on the design ... it is designed to hit a set point and stay there, with little to no overshoot. If you are okay with overshoot, and just want to get to “at least X degrees” as quick...

Introducing Software Version 10.0 “To take advantage of the advanced media features in Software Version 10.0, we are also enabling browser access on all Model 3 Standard Range Plus and Standard Range vehicles. The update will also enable streaming media access to Spotify, TuneIn, and Slacker...

You seem to be conflating your current speed with your desired speed. See my post above. Rarely is my current speed my desired speed when I engage TACC. Why assume the current speed is desired? You my want to decelerate or accelerate. Let the user set the speed before TACC takes over. Simple. I...

It’s nowhere near immediate. It takes me 1 or 2 seconds to set my speed. I had to consciously keep my foot on the pedal quite a long time to see the ‘won’t brake’ warning. Way longer than I typically take. The warning isn’t to prompt you to immediately get the foot off the pedal, it’s to warn...

I dunno... there may be some safety factors at play here. If you accidentally flick the stalk down to cruise control and have previously configured it (intentionally) to default to go speed limit + 20, then your car would potentially accelerate quickly from just an accidental flick on the stalk...

Use the voice command "bug report" to report your findings to Tesla! e.g. "Bug report ... right-hand drive driver profiles are deciding who the driver is backwards" :)

I posted a few posts up (#11) that there are blue-tooth antennas on both B-pillars as well as centre console. so it should be symmetrically effective (whether good or bad) for lhd and rhd :) oh, that's not what you are on about ... you think they sense both, but decide it wrong? LOL. a bug like...

2 things you and/or your wife might not know ... 1. If you use the nav to get home, it shows you how short you will be, and will route you to a supercharger to make the trip. 2. If you still want to look for a supercharger "on your own", if you tap the map, then tap the lightning bolt icon at...

Hey if you go all downhill you can drive 2400 miles on one charge too. It's not a con job, it's an EPA *ESTIMATE*. Not all miles are equal. Uphill miles cost more than downhill miles. Slow miles are cheaper than fast miles. Etcetera, etc.

Ooohhh... instead of "invalid_command" I get unsupported_command for "window_control" hmmm.

Anyone know the new API command to open/close the windows? I see the window state is there now in vehicle_state as fd, fp, rd, rp_window = 0|1. Same question for climate_state.defrost_mode = 0|1 EDIT: ps. I randomly tried... window[s]_vent vent_window[s] actuate_window[s] open_window[s]...

You're not restoring anything real. You are just restoring an estimate on the screen :)

LOL, honestly. Seriously folks? The easiest way to get people to think about this might be to use the miles uphill vs miles downhill example. Speed SHOULD be obvious too, but ...

This is exactly my understanding. Thanks for the description and chart.

Specifically for logging, the charge rate in mph is much more accurate than drive state power. It has one decimal place while power has none. If you log both while charging, and divide the mph by the constant Wh/mi for your trim, you'll find that you get a number with more precision, and that...

Remember that the EPA site is all AC-out-of-the-wall power. The car consumption numbers on the trip meter are all DC-out-of-the-battery power. The API numbers let you see AC-into-the-charger (which should essentially match AC-out-of-the-wall) and DC-into-the-battery (which may not match...

Cabin recirculate is not the same as Cabin Overheat Protection. I guess you are assuming he called it the wrong thing and meant to say COP when he said recirc, and then you repeated it ... or you misunderstood what he was saying. EDIT: actually you started the ‘cabin recirc’ the post you quoted...

Awesome data. As I was reading the first bit I was thinking “I need to ask if there’s frequency data as well” ... and then there it was :) See my prior post. They really prioritize frequency over voltage so, in a way it is indirectly related. You see more variation in voltage because they care...

@John Rucker ... This ^^^ ... It is a constant depending on your model and trim. E.g my Model 3 SR+ uses 219 Wh/mi Charger voltage * current / (219 Wh/mi) == charge ‘speed’ in mph EDIT: No, that’s wrong for the API. The API’s charger voltage is the AC side. Above is correct for the DC side...

Some interesting reading on the subject of power line frequency. In North America it is 60 Hz, and maintained to within about 0.5 Hz of that at all times, and maintained to a daily average of 60 Hz to a much more accurate degree (because some systems rely on this for accurate time keeping)...

If you start on top of a mountain and drive down 1000 miles you would not run out of battery. If you drove straight up a mountain at 75mph you might only get 100 miles! or less! Miles on the battery gauge are a measure of energy. They are "rated miles". They get used up more or less depending...

Try different tokens from the vehicles response, they seem to rotate them frequently? EDIT: Oh wait, it works with node not java? Hmm, dunno.

I remember something where the line "changed colours" because you had SR and SR+ overlapping exactly and SR ended mid line revealing the SR+ line underneath. Don't recall if this was an ideal profile or some other chart. Are you saying 247 is an EPA result *and* 220 an EPA result? Or just 247?

Well, you can use a hotspot on your phone to supply wifi to the car.

Ya it doesn't distinguish between AC or DC voltage in the api, it just calls it charger voltage, so it depends on what you are connected to. Could be 120, 240, or high 300s to 400. This is what it looks like: "charge_current_request": 30, "charge_current_request_max": 30...

For LR AWD take 10% off my numbers due to "slower" charging (higher consumption constant on LR AWD adds 'miles' slower than on an SR+). Also, my numbers are based on longer charges, not the number on the screen, which can fluctuate while you are watching it, and if you are in the car with...

There is a voltage in the API, but it is the charging voltage. I see that during L2 charging. You can see power, current, voltage. No decimal places on any of these though.

No, you need the CAN bus monitoring to see brick voltages ... I'm not at that level of monitoring (yet anyways ... maybe one day)

AP is a young driver still! Wait til it grows up a bit more ;) As for driving off-center in the lane ... you are much more likely to hit road debris if you do this instead of following the same trail that most drivers shoot for in the centre of the lane. If not a large chunk of debris, even...

Interesting. Do you recall the voltages for those 3 readings? I get 5 mi/hr on my 5-15, so my expectation (based on calculations taking into consideration the fixed overhead) would be 5, 7, and 14 mi/hr (using 115V and 208V for the 6-20). So pretty close. Although that 3 mi/hr seems pretty low...

I've been using the API recently to watch my car finish charging and check on it after charging. There's definitely some shifting or lagging voltages, or recalibration/re-estimations going on after the charge is complete. While charging the range in miles (visible in the API with 2 decimal...

The authorities on this would be Tesla, Elon Musk, or Professor Dahn. What they've said has been posted around many times. Tesla has a daily trip slider that goes from 50-90. If you charge to 91 or higher multiple times in a row it warns you in the car this isn't the best thing to do for your...

OK, I think we just have different interpretations of SWCAN "causing" a failure. I read that as somehow, the actual SWCAN protocol messes up the car. What you said above is just that J1772 doesn't work, and it gives up retrying (for example). That's not SWCAN specifically messing up the car...

Can't find @Zoomit 's latest SR+ / SR combined chart to check, but I think it's 91-92% like the LR for ~25 kW. This matches 220/240 = 91.67% the presumption/expectation of a full top-lock for SR. EDIT: Hmmm, well ... this chart: 150kW Supercharging for Model 3 Seems to show 25 kW expected on...

Found one post that describes what I'm trying to recall. This specific post is talking about EU with CCS connector that doesn't require an adapter, where as in NA we do need an adapter from Tesla plug to J1772 port... Tesla Wall Charger - only Tesla cars?
