Love my car, hope Tesla can get as great!
If you drive with a leadfoot the battery will actually give less total energy than if you drive with an egg under your foot. High wattage/amperage leads to energylosses and battery inefficiencies.Alright.
Thank you both for your input.
Since my battery will be super low by tonight, I plan on charging the car to 100% and documenting everything daily until battery is down to below 5%.
I'm set to prove here that my battery is of lower capacity FIRST so my driving will be pretty "leadfoot-y" to try and deplete battery faster.
If my theory proves right, I won't need to do any additional testing as this will clearly be proven as the source of all my misgivings.
Stay tuned...
Also vampire-drain, sentrymode, etc etc doesnt show in the energy used so measuring this over days wont work. Consumption-Numbers(kwh) in such a test will be much lower than reality.
Energy used only shows energy used while driving.
sentrymode can drain loads of power if left in an area with a lot of traffic.
