Where do you charge your Model Y to for daily use?

Home. Set to 80%. When home - the car is always plugged into Wall Charger.

80%. I usually charge Sunday night. I use about 10% per day unless it's really hot and then charge again on Friday night and maybe once again on Saturday depending on what I'm doing.
On the other hand, we have a SR+ Model 3 that we've had for 3 years which gets charged to 90% pretty much every single night.

For the MYLR I charge to 87% (just to be unique). Do not charge daily, just depends on the schedule for the kids' practices etc.
Wife has a 3SR+, she drives less than 10 miles per day, so usually charge hers to 95% at the beginning of the week and have an alert for when she gets home less than 40% to charge again.

Pretty much same here. Generally twice a week.(Only drive ~20 miles a day)

I charged to 90 at home on the Model S and it seemed to show more battery degradation in the first year compared to our Model Y that is charged to 70% during warm weather months and 80% in Winter. The S uses different, older battery tech so that could also be the reason. I only charge our Y beyond 80% ahead of a long trip.
For my 2022 model Y Long Range my procedure is that I wait to charge until the displayed remaining capacity in miles is 150 or lower, and that night I charge it to a limit of 80%.
The car shares a garage and a charger with a 2023 model year model 3 RWD with the LFP battery. To keep things simple, I used the same trigger of 150 miles remaining capacity, but that one I charge to 100%.
In the rare case that both of them hit the evening below 150, I just decide which car needs energy more for the next day.

Charge at home when it gets between 5~10% to some random number between 70~90% unless I’m going on a trip-then I charge and precondition to 100% minutes before I leave.

Yes, but I time it so that it is ready just a few minutes before I leave that way it’s not sitting at 100% for very long.

There’s a couple long threads on here about how charging to 50% and plugging in every day instead of waiting until it gets below xx% will yield the best battery longevity.
For those that persistently charge at home using the Tesla Wall Charger (we're waiting on delivery of our MY later this month and are having a Tesla Wall Charger installed soon) how much have you seen your electric bill increase on a monthly basis? I realize rates are different in every state and power company dependent - but am curious on average what to expect.

Of course a lot depends on how far you drive and how often you drive - my average bill increased about $22 a month. A little bit higher in the summer, because we do more traveling in the Summer
