So I have had my new MS 75D for a week and had to leave her behind for a business trip. I’ve been checking in with the phone app and TeslaFi and I’m losing almost 10 miles of range a day. Ok so that seems a bit high but I did leave power save off and always connected on....hey I wanted to make sure I could talk to her while gone. Even so that seems a bit high for drain.
What really concerns me is I left her plugged in albeit to a 115v outlet. I would have thought leaving her plugged in would have kept the battery from discharging, what am I missing? I have charge set to 80% does it have to discharge a certain amount before it recharges? I just assumed the car would be running off the “shore” power and not draining the battery at all. I can manually start a charge so I know it is getting power. So somebody set me straight.
