I was informed by a lead service tech manager that all these discussions on "range loss" is not actually any loss whatsoever. The Model S's battery is composed to many smaller battery packs and it's just the battery packs being out of balance with each other. He explained that during the charging process, as soon as the first battery pack reaches it's charge level, the charging stops for ALL battery packs. If the packs are not 'in balance/synchronized' this will lead to what looks like 'range loss' on our consoles. (e.g. 235 vs 245). He then proceeded to explain that over time, the packs WILL re-balance themselves due to the sophisticated technology/algorithms that Tesla is using BUT this must be done at repeated *lower amp* charging over time. For example, if you do nothing but supercharging all the time, he said thats the worst thing to do because the battery packs won't be able to balance themselves properly in time before the first pack reaches it's set charge level and shuts off the charging (he didn't say supercharging "harms" the battery, he just said that the battery pack can't re-balance itself right).
However, if you dial down your amps to use only what you need to reach your set charge level (e.g. dial down your HPWC or NEMA 14-50 to use 15-20amps instead of 40-80 amps), then repeated charges like this over and over again for a few weeks straight will allow the battery packs to re-balance themselves. In the ideal condition, *ONLY* charge your car using a 110v outlet to perfectly synchronize the battery packs. He said he has 3 test vehicles that have only ever been charged using 110v for 6 months straight and their "standard rated range" is over 300 miles because the packs are perfectly synchronized. This is a nice surprising little tidbit that I never knew and I don't think many customers know this, however this is why Tesla repeatedly says when you go on long trips (edit: I mean when you go on long trips away from home and you leave your Tesla at home) the *best thing you can do* is just plug your car into a 110v outlet and let it sit there. They leave out explaining the part that this will help "heal" the battery packs back to properly balanced/synchronized states.
In other words, you may show 235 as your standard charge today, but if you charge using only 110v for a month, your standard charge will climb back to 245+ over time as the packs re-balance themselves.
