Additionally, sentry mode (the alarm and recording feature) uses energy depending on how many times it is activated.

If you have both the temp and sentry mode turned off, you’ll lose about 1% a day. With sentry mode on, it really depends on how many times it’s activated (ie people walking too close to it), but factor in another couple % per day.

The cabin temp protection will burn through your battery, especially the AC setting. I forgot to turn it off on a hot day while I was out on a trip, and when I checked the app when I remembered the next day, the car was already at 20%. Not a big deal as I made it home just fine, but if you’re driving a few hours home, you’d probably have to hit a supercharger for a few min.

I usually keep temp control off and sentry mode on when I leave. Never loses more than a couple % per day.
