    Comparing cost per mile using total energy from trip screen metrics vs wall charger metrics and compared with ICE

    I've got a q - newer Tesla LR/P battery is 82.1kWh with ~4.5% buffer at the top to cover initial battery degradation which brings available capacity to about ~79kWh. So, when Tesla says range of 333miles is this for 82.1kWh or 79kWh? If the former then above calc would be 82100/333=247Wh/mi.

    Advice on Model Y Winter Tire Modification to 18"

    Sorry, idk the answer to your q's b/c I looked only briefly into 18" before deciding on 19" for my winter set. What stopped me from looking farther was very little clearing between calipers and discs in 18" config. There are plenty of ppl successfully using 18" on MY so I am sure someone will...

    Battery Strategy and Degradation at 10k Miles

    outdoors I am sorry this is a soup I am not sure how to eat or answer ... 50-80% is not what "I like" but Tesla recommendation ... outdoors you have no idea what I want to read and hear. I do NOT appreciate you making assumptions. Please stop!

    Battery Strategy and Degradation at 10k Miles

    50-80% daily or 80-100% trip do you consider NOT "normal charging principals"? Then what is? outdoors did I miss your answer? Where did lowering regen comment came from? Charging to 55% effects regen? What, how? outdoors , would you like to explain so it makes a bit more sense? Thx outdoors...

    Until you are willing to share your BMS data and/or Teslafi data I am not willing to take your word on any numbers. So, we are not talking about 1.5mi difference but probably much higher. Does 15-25mi range difference just under 5 years is significant? What about 10 years, 20 years? 50K, 100K...

    Not touching any more such disagreements with a 10' pole, it is just getting old IMHO but last sentence would not be a bad idea at all. Of course people will have to understand the limitations that come with engaging such a "magic button" so we would be back to square one. But, I for one would...

    MY misses charging schedule after a software update

    I've had weird things happening after a software upgrade to 2023.26.7. I did a two wheels reset following power down (my car-safety) + 5 minutes wait which seem to help. Now, I do reset after every upgrade. I am on 26.9 and so far have not seeing anything weird. 🤞

    I am sure you are not the only one who does 🤣 PS This discussion has been derailed enough IMO so I, personally hope to keep focus on more info that is based on studies, real data and how it can be massaged to provide useful info.

    Would 2023 MYLR also have LG battery? I always assumed Panasonic battery in my MYLR but of course that was just an assumption ... You mention the "cheat sheet" it WOULD BE cool if one existed or somebody know of one and share it :)

    FYI Personally, I strongly disagree with anything that sounds like "ignorance is bliss". I think many people here clearly stated thirst for knowledge and expressed zero fears some ppl keep trying to insist on. But everyone is free to learn or not, and use their cars the way they see fit YMMV

    Battery health tracking SS

    Yes, you are reading it right. Personally, I've noticed that often after I've used SC the BMS numbers are lower following quick recovery next time(s) I charge at home and drive locally. But it does not make much sense! Well, at least to me. So, I wrote off this observation to coincidence or not...

    charge values and total charging count

    That is an interesting catch. 228.8*48.3=11,051.04 and certainly not 14KWh. I doubt the app developers did not know Ohms low. There got to be more to this discrepancy IMO

    I have not done a 100% yet. The closest I have is 95% and let the car sleep for 3 hours once. This is BMS capture after 220 miles trip and 95% initial charge. and next day with 50% L2 charge PS I did it to see if I'll see any impact on BMS since car was mostly short cycling 40-50% and...

    Awesome - thank you! Would you mind sharing how you did above magic and the math behind it? Looks like using remaining capacity of 75.09 at about 5 years old car and 40K on ODO I should be 314 miles range. Or should I use 82kWh starting capacity for 330mi range in my calc?

    Why do you say your numbers are bad? The battery capacity is on par. Yeah, the numbers do jump a bit same as I have but that to be expected with % numbers rounded and BMS approximations. If you want you can get more accurate % numbers from service mode. Personally, I would not jump to any...

    FYI I plugged in your 94% of range and assuming current M3LR numbers/same battery pack as MYLR in calc and came out with about 9.5% battery degradation.

    That is really good to know that there are batteries with such a low degradation after 50K and consistent high SOC. From the statistics I've seen on this forum and elsewhere I think you've got really lucky and your battery do much better than average. Congrats! As for your comments about my 30%...

    Learning about Tesla battery health, degradation and such from AAKEE and other knowledgable forum members I put together a quick SS to track battery stats for my MYLR 3/23 and to see how they change over time. I know there are apps that will do the same/more out there but personally I just don't...

    Battery Strategy and Degradation at 10k Miles

    Perhaps I answered my own q. Is this right? PS This is the way to account for 82.1 to 79 "buffer" until BMS kicks in and starts to calculate the loss? I am just trying to understand better the logic behind "Tesla way" Thx

    How did you get 7.5% loss? I am sorry but using the numbers above I get about 4% loss regardless which way I slice them. Thx

    Potential UK Model Y Purchase

    My 2023 MY LR has the almost useless "worm" but my brother's 2022 MYP absolutely has working USS sensors. The rest of the q's are not as simple to answer and I'll others more knowledgable to pipe in.

    I did the envelope hatch calibration and now can confidently say the booming noise was there before the calibration and now is gone. Clearly I am not very sensitive to the booming noise since I was not even sure if it was there or not until it was gone LOL.

    Matrix is a bit brighter but today that is about it. Also, people report Matrix light has darker spots and not as uniform as non matrix light. Matrix light is capable of blocking just a small portion of the projected light not to blind other drivers but otherwise leaving high beams on to provide...

    My MYLR is Fremont build. VIN is PF with F for Fremont, CA and if you have PA in your VIN A stands for Austin, TX. For the last month + all MYLR from Fremont came with Matrix lights as far as I know.

    They gave me three dates to choose from. Insurence - Tesla app spec said has to show Tesla VIN so insurance uploaded had to be for my new Tesla. But could be diff rules for diff states. I am in NY. Hope this helps.
