Hi. Totally new to this forum, and to forum-posting in general. I sort of searched for this topic, but didn't find anything on here on this question specifically I have a question about charging.
I've had my Model 3 Long Range since September 2018. Pre-Covid, I did 95% of my charging at work, so I stuck to the 20% Min / 80% Max rule almost all the time.
Now, in Covid-world, I work from home, so I have to charge at home. I have a 220 outlet, but because of logistics, it's a bit inconvenient to use. SO, there are times that I want to get more range than the 20/80 allows for.
My question is this - am I being better to my battery by charging to 95%, then taking it no lower than approximately 20%, or would it be more beneficial to the long-term battery life if I charge to only 80%, but take the car down to 5 to 8 % ?
For argument's sake, lets say that I -have- to do this three to four times per month.
Again - please forgive me if I posted in the wrong place.
Thanks !
