Go back and read the announcement of cabin overheat protection.No.. no, this is NOT the reason for it. It is to protect the electronics. Cabin temperature of 105 degrees will still harm a child or animal.

The Vampire drain has been fixed with firmware update. You should ask for it if you hadnt got it yet
There's an ON setting (which uses A/C) and a Fan Only setting. Both will keep the car cooler than turning it off, A/C obviously works faster and better but with a larger hit to the battery.Quick follow-up question about Cabin Overheat Protection. I see there is an option to enable it with and without A/C. What do people generally use? I'm in Florida where it's freakishly hot and humid. Will it even work without AC, presumably just using fans? Assume using A/C costs more energy? Appreciate your thoughts.

It’s very hot, but hopefully cool enough to keep them alive. I think this could be combined with the internal camera or seat sensors to have a great solution to the problem of a forgotten child or pet.Well dang! When im wrong, im wrong.
I still think 105 is too hot for a kid or a pet.
Seat sensor is a great idea. dog/cat running around causing weight and/or the child still having weight on the seat should send an alert to your phone or something. the sensor would have to account for the child seat though.It’s very hot, but hopefully cool enough to keep them alive.

No kidding.I still think 105 is too hot for a kid or a pet.
Which is pretty much always if you park in the sun and it's remotely warm outside.Cabin overheating only kicks on when it hits 105, so if that's actually happening then you might want to leave it on.
105 seems low, that is ambient temperature here lately.Cabin overheating only kicks on when it hits 105, so if that's actually happening then you might want to leave it on.
I'm an adult male and I can't even handle 90.Well dang! When im wrong, im wrong.

My guess is that it has to keep part of the system on to detect the temperature to know when it reaches 105 so it knows when it needs to kick in.How do I ask for it?
My car is always in a garage, no more than 80 degrees so don't see why cabin overheat would be kicking in, but I'll disable it anyway. (No kids yet!)
I'm guessing he didn't know that Elon was showing up.Karma for not dressing better for your Elon Musk photo...
Well dang! When im wrong, im wrong.
