Hey guys i have another newbie question.
The dealer in canada and the shipment company finally got all the custom forms sorted out. the roadster is ready to ship in 2 weeks (yea finally)
I know it depends how healthy the battery is. In the ballpark how many days the battery can sit without charging. Im thinking to ask the seller to put the roadster to storage mode.

no need; the car will definitely go to sleep during the transport since the weather and ambient temperature is cold during this time of year.
I'd like you to try a little experiment in order to learn something new about your Roadster. After it goes to sleep try bouncing it up and down a few times. Do it as hard as you can without scratching the paint or damaging the body. Then listen to see if it woke up.
Storage mode is just a charging mode, likely pointless for transport...and always risky when stored!
I would bet that storage mode is probably responsible for half of the bricked roadster batteries since it always maintains the battery at a very low charge all the time....if anything bad happens like a breaker trips while you're away, it's much faster to go from 30% to 0%!
My car is 'stored' for winter in my home garage so I can check up on it all the time but I still top it off once or twice every winter especially if I'm going away on vacation and never leave it very long below 30%.
Never used storage mode since I realized this!

One can also physically disconnect the battery from the PEM and that will eliminate the phantom drain.
It's not going to hurt, I suppose, but I do not believe that storage mode changes the vampire drain aspect of things. Does anyone know differently?He meant once fully charged 80-90% before goes on the transport put it in storage mode; the battery will still be completely charged. Yes this is fine.
