That's not bad for Sentry mode and you can afford the battery impact.
BTW: Don't forget to clear off the videos each time, otherwise the USB stick will fill up.

WRONG! Please disregard my above reply — I just tried to charge to 100%, and we’re well on our way to 240 miles.I had been told at pickup that the range was locked down to 220 miles, and so, until now, I never tried to go above 210. Hahaha, I’m so trusting. An email from operations today announced that we would be downgraded tonight, so I figured I’d better give it a go before the reduction.
Nope. No SR owner has told us anything yet regarding this issue, at least that I can find scouring the forums. I wish they would. Are you an SR owner with the battery already software locked?

I’ve started charging to 215, which my screen reports is 90%, though we all know that 90% of 240 is 216 — meh!
I haven’t been locked down, yet, but I’m hunkered down with the kids and a case of Top Ramen, in case we miscalculate and have to spend time at home.

Honestly, is it a big deal? ... if we had the real “SR-“ in Canada I’d consider downgrading from the SR+ if all I lose is the ability to charge past 92%. Big deal. I never charge past 90% except for a trip, and 92% vs 100% just means a couple extra minutes at the first supercharger stop. If I knew I’d still get power adjustable seats/wheel saveable to custom profiles and heated seats and not fabric seats ... I would have probably order an SR-.
Charge to 216 miles every day. Car used to say “90%”. After lockdown car days “98%”. Zero impact.
I totally agree. I was just joking. No regrets choosing the locked down version. I don't even car for autopilot.
I was told the battery is actually 260mi but capped at 240 for standard plus. So we are actually charging to 80% when we do 100%
So you have been locked to SR? When did it happen? Also, do you notice a huge difference in the acceleration?

Tesla has said the SR has a 5.6 second 0-60 while the SR+ has 5.3 second. I know the acceleration lock was a primary reason some people didn't downgrade.
Could it be that only the range was software locked when you picked it and they have since added the acceleration lock?

It's hard to guess how they've implemented the lock. It should be a 5% reduction in acceleration, but Tesla might have just done "enforced Chill mode until X MPH" or something similar.
Trying to think of alternative causes; do you keep "obstacle aware acceleration" on? Maybe there's a new bug with that feature.
