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?

    Ok so I turned off sentry mode last night after posting my last reply.

    12hrs later the battery is down 1%.

    Need to make sure that sentry mode is off at home.

        Yeah that makes sense.

        I’ve actually managed to let it sit unused for a few more days with sentry mode off. 48% now.

        So this is better to see.

        Actually has me wondering about a 4 day trip I did earlier in the year. Got home with air 10% left. Sentry mode was on the whole time. I probably could of gotten home with 40% if I’d left sentry mode off. It’s a power hog.
