Well, you did complain it was going off in your own home.
I complained it was going off too much, period, regardless of location, so again, focusing on just turning off in my home is neither the point of the thread nor addresses the problem.
Some of us bought our cars to be more green and not just waste energy on silly stuff.
Thanks for the condescension. It helps sell the idea that you’re just trying to be helpful here. However, given that Tesla engineers created the feature in the first place, the presumption therefore is that at least THEY don’t consider it a “silly feature”. If it exists, I want to use it, but I also want to highlight where said features can/should be improved. Hence, the point of this thread.
Also just because the electricity is free doesn't me the added charge cycles are free to you.
Thank you for your sincere concern of my financial status, but if you don’t mind, let me worry about what I can or can’t afford. Thanks.
I only use Sentry Mode when it's really needed. That's how it's currently designed.
Why not exclude home?
There are much better security solutions for home, that are more effective, cheap and less waste.
Once again, the actual Tesla engineers (I.e. clearly not you) actually designed the feature to also be used in the home. That’s why the setting is there, and furthermore, that’s why they have the home setting on BY DEFAULT. So yes, in fact, the system is currently designed to be used there in addition to anywhere else. That’s fine if you don’t want to use it at your home. That’s why the option to turn off exists. But I’m not you. I want it on. End of story. I just want it to actually be RELIABLE when on.
Again, though, this isn’t the point of the thread. Let’s just say for argument’s sake that I capitulate to your incessant complaining about home use. Ok! It’s done. No more recording in the home...now what? The mode is STILL too sensitive and records all the time errantly everywhere else. Now can we move on with the point of the thread??
What do you expect it to do different? Then you'll complain it missed something critical.
I expect it to only activate when, you know, something actually happens that warrants activation. Me walking within 2 feet of the car without even so much as lightly sneezing on it should not qualify. That’s my complaint, and it doesn’t seem like an outlandish expectation.
