App vs Car Charging Discrepancy

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I can never remember the rating for my battery. Now I can't find it.

My Tesla app doesn't report home charges only the paid ones at a Tesla SC.

The check meter I got installed with wall unit over reads by a massive amount, useless.

My power co will only give monthly reports on my usage when it reports half hourly to them. Useless.

I can't access my wall unit with my phone.

Not having much luck tracking my power use vs reported.
 
I think the real answer is that ~0.5kW doesn't matter much, it's too small, so they round. It doesn't really matter much in what direction since it's small. It is an annoyance at best.
I understand that they round, but the car and app should be rounding the same way. Still seems like the app should be getting the information that the car shows, and not do its own rounding.
 
It would be interesting to see if anyone else can confirm this. @AlanSubie4Life, @AAKEE. Do you see this with your cars?
I looked and I half see it, car goes between 9 and 10kW. App says 9kW. Car is wrong though - the highest power is 9440W. Of course partial amps are possible (40.4 or whatever). So the car may be right.

Probably the app is rounding amps before calculating power and the car is not.

Picture doesn’t capture when app shows 237V/40A but it displays 9kW when it is.

This issue does not seem major. Lol.
