I'm taking a trip in three days and will have to leave my model 3 awd in a parking garage for a week or more.
I normally charge to 70% at home on 120V. Would it be better to slowly charge at home to 100% trying to time the charge so that it is complete just before leaving on the trip or would it be better to leave it at 70% then charge it to 100% at a supercharger a mile from my home? The Tesla app says it will take about 21 hours to charge from 70% to 100%. If 10 of those hours are spent charging between 90% and 100% isn't that equivalent or maybe worse than leaving the car charged at 100% for an equivalent length of time?
Thanks for your help!
