Turning 2017 S into a Hotel, and again with a 2023
Hi Candleflame, I am not certain about the 20%, but when we sleep in the car we much prefer not to use camp mode. The main reason being that the screen remains on (amongst other things). We find the light emitted from the screen quite annoying in our otherwise perfectly dark car (we use insulating screens for all windows). Furthermore, the active systems will consume power by being on all night for no reason. Here is what we do. After installing the window blinds, we undress in the front seat, then climb to the back to get into bed. From there I tap the HVAC on the main screen (not a flattering position to find myself in), set the temperature @ 18ºC, fan at 1, airflow down and choose the option 'remain on'. Then go to 'security' on the main screen and tap 'shut down car' the car will answer with 'are you sure?' Say yes, and all systems will shut down, but the HVAC remains on. You can still use the lights in the roof above the seats if need be, and the phoneapp will also function as normal. And so we sleep. In the morning I once again maneuver myself in the non flattering position and wake the car up with some slight pressure on the driver's seat. Which switches the music on and cranks the temperature up to the set number of the preset profile. We find this very easy, by far the most comfortable and the most economic way to spend a night in our Hotel Tesla (for which I have made a bespoke mattress, screens for all windows, a bespoke fridge, changed the USB system to be able to charge phones overnight, upgraded the interior lighting system to have dimmed light at night to allow a midnight piddle inside the car without waking up my partner and created a cocktail/breakfast table that fits between the front seats and allows us to have a cold drink in the evening and watch Netflix, while brewing ourselves a cup of hot tea and coffee in the morning and enjoy a croissant. (Very handy in times of Corona lockdown when coffee bars are closed.) And there you go: 5 star hotel. The only thing missing is a shower... And possibly a microwave oven.
