Yes, I am, and I am *in* the rated setting, which should be the lower of the settings. I'll send you a PM.
fiksegts, it's important to know the answer to this.
Software version 4.x (I'm guessing you're running 4.something) adjusts its MPH charge rate based on your projected miles (aka average watt-hours per mile) when set to display Rated (so this sounds like a bug to me).
As long as you're showing 240v, 40 amps, you're fine. The MPH charge rate is irrelevant.

Model S doesn't do this (for standard mode charges).
Edit: Plus he stated 240/40, so it clearly wasn't tapering.
Are you sure about this? What time period of average watt-hours do you think it uses? I can certainly test this, but my gut tells me it doesn't hold true for me.

As sure as I can be without seeing the source code. If my 30-mile average whpm is high, I observe rates like 18 MPH (2 hours into the charging session). The next day when I have a more reasonable whpm, I observe rates like 25 MPH. Same voltage and amperage.
This is all since 4.0. There's a mismatch between that calculation and the rated/ideal setting (which used to be projected/rated -- so it feels like the code doing the math never got changed away from doing projected to doing rated when that switch is in the left-most position). Doing the math with respect to whpm and how that would affected the MPH charge rate works out, too.
I covered this in more detail in another thread (too lazy to find it :smile
but I've been closely observing this (I'll leave it up to everyone here how I'm doing that) just about every day.Right now I'm at 19 MPH with a high whpm from the 20F temps for this evening's commute home.
Edit: in case you didn't run 3.x before, 3.x used to show projected MPH charge exactly like it is now with that switch to the left (which used to be projected/rated). I think they forgot to update this bit of code with the 4.x update.

But what time period do you think it's using to figure the average? My rate seems to be very consistent, while my driving is not. I'm seeing the same charging rate whether my whpm is 320 (nominal), 380 (very aggressive driving), or 280 (road trip).
I was delivered with 4.0
Having said that, today I drove like a crazy person and finally see a difference. I am getting 26mi/hr.
Is your 30 mile average whpm significantly higher than 310?
I am starting to wonder if this is a problem for cars that have been upgraded from pre-4.0 where that button USED to be projected in the left-most setting.

Version you were delivered with? 30-mile WHPM?
Can I assume you waited 30+ minutes before taking a miles/hr charge reading (takes a while to settle in)?
