Hi everyone. I have a dumb question. I purchased my LR on March 26. I just received my first post-purchase electric bill, through April 14 for 19 days of ownership. I leave the car plugged in with sentry on, and charged at home for about 500 miles of driving in that time (plus 200 miles on a supercharger). My usage for this month was around 300 kWh higher than the same month’s bill in 2020. The mileage is responsible for 125kwh of that based on 250 wh/mi consumption. The remaining 175 kWh delta pencils out to around 9.2 kWh/day, or about 380 watts per hour. That seems high to me, even though I left sentry mode on the whole time. Am I missing something?
I’m charging on a 110v plug until my wall charger is installed, so inefficiency is part of this. Once I have the charger installed I’ll be able to track the usage more closely, and eliminate other variable usage from the calculations. But for now, it seems like the car is drawing a LOT of power.
