Accidentally charged my Tesla to 100% last night. Will it explode?

[elecTED]

Oh dear. You should’ve kept quiet.

Musky has any army of range reducing elves that go steal one percent every time you charge to 100%.

If you hear knocks and banging even when the car is locked that’ll be the elves hard at work.

nothing like an unplanned trip to two IKEAs, taking the wrong turning, and the M4 being shut to get your charge back down. 46% now, will need to charge again soon!

Charged to , this car drove itself to let off steam. Be safe out there and only charge to 100 when you’re in the drivers seat.

Preferably just go for a ride, but failing that just put on Sentry mode and climate and burn off about 2% per hour.

Ah was that your X parked in the Ecotricity CHADEMO bay in Bristol Ikea? Our leaf was dying of thirst ! then got stuck in that horrible tokyo festival traffic (was it really 40 000 people?)... cant wait to get my MS back from the SC !

Lets face it. its not really ever charged to 100% since you dont get 100% of the the total battery.

no I’m always a good boy. And was doing half a lap of the M25

I did pop in to the local shell for a sandwich and the first time I saw both charge points in use (MG and a polestar 2), and a Leaf pulling up. Although I don’t know if those fast Shell units support chademo anyway?

If you put your phone on charge at night, it's sitting at 100% for hours.

It's fine. You have an 8 year warranty on it.

Which is why my Iphone 11 pro max is now 2 years old and battery health is 95%, i keep it below 80%

My iPhone X is still on 97% health and I charge it to 100% every night.

yeah which is why phone batteries are shot in a couple of years. Since I don't need 100% of my phone battery most days I would like an option to set the charge limit on that to 80% to protect the battery. Strangely Samsung seem to have no interest in providing this. Its almost like they want the battery to fail in a couple of years.......

Same here, we use one of these to reduce overcharging;

Would you worry about filling a ICE car up to 100%??*

just get in it and enjoy the ride !

*yes not exactly the same ramifications but let's all stop being scared of EV's and get out there and enjoy them..

i saw a recent article from tesla that on testing , batteries that had done very 200000 miles only lost around 10% charge capacity.

Based on that, I’m looking forward to doing a few more miles which might improve my battery state.
I’ve only done 11,000 miles and I’m down to 10% already! - according to TeslaFi.
