If you set your battery to be charged @ 80% every night, you will wake up with the same amount of rated range every day (~192 miles).
The car will easily recharge @ ~28 miles per hour overnight, so 2+ hours and your car will be still be @ the 192 mile range each morning.
I seldom allow my battery below 30 miles of rated range--the car starts giving you signals @ about 50 miles of range that you are getting a bit low on charge.
When you get below 20 miles of range, it may start to limit some features, and yellow dashed lines start to appear.
Like anything, if you get too close to the edge, sometimes bad things happen.
I guess I may be just a bit more risk adverse about possibly running out of range, so I NEVER get below 20.
Plugging-in @ home is just a really quick habit to develop: 5 to 8 seconds to plug in, about 5 seconds to unplug.
Should you need to take a longer drive and you don't have the 192 miles already stored on your battery, then you might start thinking differently.
BUT, heck since you are in CA, and there are a LOT of Superchargers available to quickly recharge your car, that probably isn't really a major concern.
