Model 3 discharge rate (lemmy.world)

My model 3 long range is sitting in my garage. I charged it to 80% on Thursday night and unplugged it on Friday morning. It's just been sitting since that time unplugged but undriven. It's down to 51% on Tuesday morning. Down 30% in 4 days seems kind of bad. Sentry mode is on despite me having it set to not be on at home. Still seems like a lot of energy usage for a couple of low resolution cameras. Anyone else noticed this substantial energy usage when not in use?

Is it in a spot in the garage where sentry mode would be getting triggered and recording a bit? The car essentially stays awake so if you do want to turn it off, you can do so in the Tesla app > Security and Drivers.

Additionally, are you checking the car via the app often or is your garage hot enough that cabin overheat protection had kicked on?

I just left my 2018 Model 3 LR unplugged for a full week and lost maybe 2% so something is definitely keeping the car awake.

It's in the garage alone with no access for animals or anything.

I think I looked at the car once before today.

I'll have a look at the recordings if any. See if something is triggering it. Nothing in their to trigger it though so doesn't make much sense.

Shadows trigger it something fierce, too.
