A couple % a day is expected
6 years and 150k miles later, I've never found that to be the case. 1% every 2-3 days is more in line with my observations once you turn off all the power-sapping garbage.

A couple % a day is expected
May also depend on the hardware platform as my Palladium is a couple percent a day. Just parked the car at the terminal and back Thursday morning. I took a note of the level (91%) and will not touch it until I am back.6 years and 150k miles later, I've never found that to be the case. 1% every 2-3 days is more in line with my observations once you turn off all the power-sapping garbage.
Maybe it says it is off but it actually is not. I have had this happen a couple times, where the app shows no sentry mode is active but I get to the car and there are sentry events. Just an idea worth trying
Or make the garage a ‘favourite’ and in Sentry you can check ‘exclude favourites’One way to deal with that perhaps is once you park at the airport, redefine that location as Home. Then if Sentry is set to be switched "Off at home", it'll be an extra way of ensuring it's actually off
Those can be a problem as it may ping the location (not sure if app may trigger a GPS search, which can drain battery quicker if the parking structure has poor GPS reception). In order to meet the timer, the car may also regularly poll the car, which may keep it awake, although if you say this is not an issue at home that may not be how they implemented it.The only Tessie routines I had created were for the car to "set climate to 68 at 1pm while GPS location is work", and "stop charging at 3pm at GPS home", neither of which should apply while in a parking structure that is not "home" or "work". I deleted both of them, signed out of the app and changed my password to deauthorize it if they were causing the drain. Will see in two days where I stand.
A little bit of clarification. On my Autopilot screen i have Summon (Beta) turned off. Do I also need to go into another screen to turn Summon Standby off? I have an FSD license. Also, I'm thinking 1% of battery equates to maybe 30 miles of range depending on model. I recall my new Model Y LR range goes down by about 10 miles in a 24 hour period when the car is just sitting in my garage. thanksSentry mode and Summon Standby are the two main battery killers.
Make absolutely sure that neither are functional.
Note: Summon Standby is on by default if you have EAP or FSD license.
The point isn’t how fast it goes to sleep, it’s how long it STAYS asleep. Using the app will wake it up and start depleting the battery however minimally. This will happen every time you check the app.define frequently. I have left it 8-12 hours between my checks, and come back to find it's lost 3-4%. How long before the car goes to sleep? I've seen it go to sleep while at work in much less time.
My 2021 Model 3 SR+ goes down by only around 1 mile per 24 hour period, so you definitely have extra drain.A little bit of clarification. On my Autopilot screen i have Summon (Beta) turned off.

I mean they spent development resources on the f#%$ing stupid "Joe Mode" for Pete's sake! This is far more important and useful than that!
Uh, first of all, it was for Joe's sake.
Second, Joe gets me. He hears what I hear. Don't mock him.
Whatever the latest version is for my car.
Tessie will drain your battery significantly even with its “doesn’t wake” method. Any app connected to your car is going to work against your expectations of leaving a car parked for 2 weeks without a hassle. Change your Tesla log in credentials - this will stop Tessie from accessing your car. Phantom drain is extremely variable and not an exact science. You might want to call a buddy, have them go to your car, then remotely allow them to take it for a charge. Then enjoy your friggin’ time out of the country and not stress!Also let's math that out. I've got 12 days to go. If I am currently at 63% battery and am losing 5% per day, that's 60% battery drain and will leave me with 3%. So no I'm not fine.
You should be able to leave a tesla in long term parking for 2 weeks and not return to a dead car. At the current rate of drain I will be doing just that. Something's wrong here.
This is not true. I use TeslaMate and there is no extra drain on the car at all. It never wakes it up.Any app connected to your car is going to work against your expectations of leaving a car parked for 2 weeks without a hassle.

Me and OP however aren’t talking about TeslaMate. We are talking about Tessie. Two different apps. If TeslaMate isn’t waking up your car every so often then how is it getting the current info of your car? YOU may not think so, but from an API perspective it’s literally impossible to get a real-time current info stack of the car without it waking up.This is not true. I use TeslaMate and there is no extra drain on the car at all. It never wakes it up.
oops, you are correct that 1% would equate to 3 miles. wow, and i have a mathematics degree. By the way i just did a short test with my 2022 Model Y LR in my garage for 12 hours with temp around 75 degrees, I lost 1% of charge. A longer duration test would provide a more accurate number on battery usage, but i'm headed to the beach in a couple hours. thanks for correcting my mistake.1% of battery equates to maybe 3 miles of range.
I thought the cigarette lighter and USB ports stopped drawing power when the car was locked.Any added 12v accessories added to the car that may not be turned off, they will draw from the low voltage battery and the HV battery will recharge it as needed. I.E. dashcam, cooler, radar detector
