I'm still trying to figure out exactly how TeslaFi is calculating this. If we believe rated miles are based on a fixed constant (which I do), why wouldn't they just take total rated miles used multiplied by an established (or user definable) constant for each vehicle? I'm going to keep digging around a little, just curious. I did find a setting that allows you to scale the kWh calculation. I used a factor to make my last trip equal actual consumption. Now I'm interested in whether that factor holds fairly true over time or not.
The CAN data I quoted was Scan My Tesla's Trip Energy display, which I believe is based on cumulative (lifetime) counters of discharge and regen reported by the BMS. The values of the counters from the start of the trip are compared to the values at the end of the trip, so you don't have to worry about data dropouts, etc.
