    "Phantom Drain" causes and solutions

    For me it all depends on Sentry mode, which seems to take (on a 3) 200-250 watts; with Sentry mode off and TeslaFi properly configured, the vampire drain in sleep mode seems to be on the order of 30 watts. This in a mild climate with no need for overheat protection.

    What’s Your Favorite Color for the Tesla Model Y?

    Here's to the suggestion of Green, and then some. I'm at least the second blue 3 in the neighborhood. I had a series of silver, gray and black cars, so I wanted a color-color. Both the red and blue, while beautiful, are quite aggressive colors. Maybe some second-tier option colors? I...

    What Kind of Car Did The Model 3 Replace?

    Never had a fast car, I think the M3 AWD in Chill mode still might be faster than anything I've driven. I guess it's replacing our Sienna (kids gone), but we haven't been able to let the old friend go yet. I didn't set out to buy a performance car. Part of me loves to make supercar moves on...

    Sentry mode critical flaw

    It's a great thing if Tesla is grabbing these, but it's not a transparent process. I agree with Burrito that it would be good to have a full cloud option, certainly with review/download/send to cops capability, and it would get plenty of willing subscribers. In that connection, I see that...

    Vampire Drain/Loss Tracking

    I'm getting a drain of about a kwh per 4 hours, on a model 3 AWD in Sentry mode. I don't think the recent update from 12.1 to 16.3 has changed the rate of drain. According to TeslaFi, I'm never entering Sleep mode, but always in Idle. I'm not surprised that this might be the effect of Sentry...

    2019.12.1.2 on HW3

    Greetings, Noob here with a Model 3 AWD and 2019.12.1.2 5c87371, I've had 4-5 kWh/day drain in sentry mode. First few days were raining, lots of events, but now I think it doesn't matter how many events occur. The FSD board being on would make sense; I believe the new hardware still takes 100...
