I've read a few articles that show Level 1 charging had the most losses at 20% or more. Many articles mention increasing the current and definitely increasing the voltage helps reduce these losses down to like 10%. However I am using a 6-15 outlet at home (12A / 240V charging). My local utility company has an app that allows you to track when and how much power you use. It never matches what the Tesla app reports because of rounding with the app. However, it doesn't match what the car says for my efficiency.
I average 180-190 Wh/mi in my commutes (22 Model 3 LR) but based on how much power I use (utility company app) and for the miles I drive, that is more like 250 Wh/mi.
That tells me my losses are more like 25%-26% with 6-15 Level 2 charging.
Has anyone else seen this for lower current Level 2 charging?
