When I tell the I dash nav I'm going a charger it conditions the battery, yes? Then the act of using a DCFC will warm the battery, yes? So when leaving the charger I can expect the battery to be conditioned ans warm. So why would I get 1.3 after leaving the charger
Got stuck and barely managed to rock it out backwards, it couldn't get through in off road mode with the rear dif locked. Honestly thought I was going to pull it out with my jeep. Never expected my 11 year old grand Cherokee to save a truck but here we are.
It hasn't been particularly windy here lately. The drives have been calm no major weather other than a few rainy nights that I didn't have to drive through.
The estimate being wrong is less of a problem than the fact that I'm actually getting the 150 mile range. It's a problem yes, but I'd rather get a little more and have the estimate be wrong than get less and have the estimate be right.
I'm not talking about charge levels here. On the left side is power. When the battery is cold, it will limit your available power levels. I've seen mine drop down to 60% I know people have seen lower. When I precondition in 20 degree weather it will allow me to use 100%. When I do not, the...
8th digit is a V. When I charge to 100% it tells me the range is something like 280 until I start actually driving. After about 30 minutes it gives me much more realistic estimate. I'm worried about longer trips with it being so far off. It's going to tell me to charge somewhere I cant reach and...
At 30-40 degrees, it's not cold here yet. I already need a rental car to get to and from work, I can't imagine it getting worse.
Last night on the drive home I was at 1.3, 35 degrees out.
The battery DOES precondition on level 1. Two trips on the same day, for the first I had preconditioned and I had 100% power available. For the second I did NOT precondition and had 97% power available. It does work, but does slightly drain the battery. I am more concerned about losing half of...
I do precondition. That picture was taken right after. Unfortunately right now all I have is level 1 at home. Hopefully this weekend I'll get the Tesla charger installed so I have level 2. If anyone is wondering, yes it does precondition on level 1 if you tell it to precondition when unplugged.
