i know, that is switched power.If your asking if there's a power socket, it's in the left rear panel.
Pretty sure the only way to do this is to tap power from the "penthouse" which is really something you should not do. How about using a 12v battery power supply, such as something like a motorcycle battery?i know, that is switched power.
I'm asking for constant +12v.
My car is 2021, it still has the lead-acid battery.. and I'm over 80k kms so no warranty either to worry aboutSome additional considerations:
- The 16v battery has a capacity of just 6.9 Ah!
- The BMS monitors the LV battery and it may see the unexpected drain as a problem, and may generate errors
- Tesla will void the warranty if you make an "improper" connection. I know, that statement is kind of vague but if, for example, you short out the LV battery Tesla will not cover the repair or damage caused to anything else impacted.
I asked a similar question for Model 3 a while back. Short answer is no, especially if talking about a constant source.My car is 2021, it still has the lead-acid battery.. and I'm over 80k kms so no warranty either to worry about![]()
Easy, but not really efficient.. keeping the car awake will consume a lot of power.The easiest way to do this is use the existing 12v socket and enable sentry or camp mode when you want the fridge continuously powered.
No. The answer... is no.Is there a constant 12v available in the trunk area? Looking to power a mini fridge, takes about 3A.
Did you look into the trunk strut power? I think the strut is connected to constant power.I asked a similar question for Model 3 a while back. Short answer is no, especially if talking about a constant source.
There is a source in the rear view mirror area that provides 9V, but it's only enough current to run a dashcam, definitely not enough for a fridge.![]()
12V source in trunk in 2021 Model 3 without amp
I'm trying to look for a 12V source in the back (can be switched or unswitched) that can be tapped into. Did a search and didn't find anything, only sources for those with the subwoofer and amp, but mine is a SR+. Was able to do trailer harness according to this thread, but looking for another...teslamotorsclub.com
How much does the fridge draw? I doubt it’s a huge difference between continuously drawing down and recharging the 12v and just keeping the car powered. Especially when factoring in the wear and likely early demise on the ~$150 12v.Easy, but not really efficient.. keeping the car awake will consume a lot of power.
Fridge specs say it draws 200wh / 24h operation. Max current draw 3A but since its a compressor fridge its intermittent. Just keeping the car powered uses around 200-250wh/h.How much does the fridge draw?

Nope, since no one suggested it. I presumed any power connections to the back would be like the taillights where power is only provided when it is activated.Did you look into the trunk strut power? I think the strut is connected to constant power.
