Does having the official Tesla wall charger help reduce battery degradation or is that a myth?
Yes, adding a bit: the wall connector is not a charger. It more or less just connect the car to the electric power. The charger is in the car.Myth.

First, it’s not recommended that you charge to 100% on a regular basis - doing so is detrimental to battery longevity.Tesla Newbie here. I’ve worked out the difference between Estimated Range and the Rated Range which is displayed on main screen.
But I can’t understand why the Rated Range displayed is lower than the 360 mile WLTP range quoted at 100% charge. I never seen more than about 335 miles on mine. Can anyone help me understand the difference please?
My 2019 Tesla 3 LR Performance charging only to 283 at 100%. Must be 310. Tesla says this is common in all cars. Afraid it will be SR miles soon.
The WLTP range is no where near realistic out of the 3 biggest testing agencies. The EPA rating believe it or not, it probably the most accurate. You can actually get that range if you tried. The WLTP is impossible.Tesla Newbie here. I’ve worked out the difference between Estimated Range and the Rated Range which is displayed on main screen.

Rated Range which is displayed on main screen.
It’s totally normal. Definitely there are people doing better than that. There are also people doing worse.I got a hard hit on a Tesla-subforum on facebook yesterday. Someone had lost range and the question was if that was normal.
I wrote that 10% is normal for a 2 year old Model 3.
I know what I have read and seen on TMC before, but to make it clear:
Is 10% degradation(range loss on the range indicator actually) normal or is it not normal ?
Update at 20k milesJust re-calculated after 10k miles.
Now getting 49.77kWh with same calculation.... Down 5.2%.
Will check again in a few days as first time i have ran this calc in a long time.
Update at 20k miles
New = 52.64 kWh
10k = 49.77 kWh (-5.4%)
20k = 47.86 kWh ( -9.0%)
Just trying to recall, what was the rated mile range for the SR+ when delivered in sept 2019?Looking good! Around 229 rated miles; all is looking normal.
Ah, you’re right, I was thinking 2020. So you have about 220 rated miles if you have a 2019.Just trying to recall, what was the rated mile range for the SR+ when delivered in sept 2019?
I have 240 in mind?
To clarify, I mean 220 out of the original 240.Ah, you’re right, I was thinking 2020. So you have about 220 rated miles if you have a 2019.
