How to set the charging level without getting annoyed

[EVer Hopeful]

Sure you go to the Charging screen and press "Set Limit" and then you get a thing you can move from left to right, but here's my question:

Why didn't they include a number as well as a (very ungranular) visual line?

So if you want to set it to 80%, you slide it around to what looks like 80%, then you can check on your phone, but you'll see it's 83% so you knock it back a bit and it becomes 75%. So off to the right again and it becomes 84%!

Wouldn't it be simpler to just have a text box where you type in the exact number you want? ... if you wanted an exact number (and who amongst us doesn't?)


is it just me?

I agree its annoying.

https://sg57productions.com/dashboardfortesla allows you to set it precisely from the app.

Oh no! There goes the rest of my Sunday!

Those of us without CDO. I know you're not the only one who's irked. We all have our little peeves. I deliberately set mine to 81% to avoid having it say 79% when I get in the car. That'll probably change when the weather gets colder/warmer.

If you make the effort of opening the app to check the level %, why not just use the slide to set it to the level you want? The app slider is way more accurate than the one in the car.

Teslafi will let you do it too

Hey BigDanSRQ, why the downvote on post #1?

Do you like the way it works?
