From the Norwegian Tesla manual (Euro Spec) It does list the weight for 85 and 60 version.
 
Just wanted to pop in and say I really enjoy your videos, Bjorn! Thanks for posting them. I watch them at night and knit! I find them interesting and relaxing. You guys are a sweet couple. And i like the way you say, "shiiiiiiit". LOL
Thank you for the feedback :) Then shieeet there is :p By the way, I used to play MMO and hang out on Ventrilo. In our guild, there was a black guy who said it sometimes. I guess I learned how to say it by listening to him :)
 
Some of those areal shots are super cool. I wonder if those were taken in some kind of copter ?
Yes, it was shot from a drone.

Quadcopter drone, I suspect.

Something frankly I'm surprised Bjorn hasn't purchased and started using in his videos! It'd be kinda cool to release a drone a minute before arriving at a SuperCharger, and then film his own car pulling in -- from above! (Hint, hint, Bjorn!)
A drone is one of the items in my to-shop-list. I don't want any of the cheap drones for $150. The one I want cost over $1600.
 
Bjørn,

In response to your video "Tesla Model S typical range calculation". Tesla has said Rated Miles is calculated at 300wh/mi, using your formula I get 280wh/mi for RM. Very interesting.

I used numbers from one of my previous trips:

(<Start RM> - <End RM>) / <Total Distance> = <Percentage offset>
<Avg wh/mi> / <Percentage offset> = <Rated wh/mi>

HOME TO RV
166 / 183 = 0.907
254 / 0.907 = 280wh/mi

RV to BOI
143 / 173 = 0.83
231 / 0.83 = 278wh/mi

BOI to RV
201 / 173 = 1.161
326 / 1.161 = 280wh/mi

RV to HOME
226 / 183 = 1.235
347 / 1.235 = 280wh/mi
 
Bjorn,

I really enjoy watching your videos. Number 13 was an interesting one. I am glad to see it worked out OK for you. It was great to get your impressions of the new "fossil car" V40, and of the 60 kWh Model S loaner. Informative and entertaining.

Glad to see Tesla work so hard to get you on your way quickly, and also installing proper winter tires for your trip. In the end, getting a new battery pack makes #13 a lucky episode. :)
