After upgrades to 2019.36.--- the battery draw while parked with Sentry mode enabled has gone up radically.
Just this morning after parking for 2 hours 6 minutes I had a loss of 8.93 miles and 2.03 kwh. This has become about the standard type of loss for me with sentry enabled. It used to be about a loss of 1 mile of range for every hour parked. Now if I know that I am going to be parked for an extended time I am to the point of turning off Sentry. A full day of parked (8 hours)
would literally use 5-10% of the total battery capacity (75kw-).
Is anybody else seeing this type of loss or am I just "lucky" to be having this amount of battery usage. There is nothing else enabled-- no dog mode, no overheat protection, etc. On average over the last 2-3 weeks battery loss with Sentry on is 4-5 times higher than without- 1 mile loss per hour (.1kwh) without vs 4-5 mile loss per hour (.5-.8kwh) up to with Sentry.
I know that some of the variance with Sentry is due to the number of incidents recorded but I do see this higher usage even with Sentry staying idle the entire time.
