Model 3 idle battery drain only when battery <10%

[pure9]

I notice unexceptional battery drain only when battery is less than 10% and car is on standby/idle (I went from 8%-5% in 1 hour). This is when I would need the car to lose the least amount of battery while idle. When battery is above 10% battery drain is very minimal while on standby and within spec. Sentry mode and cabin overheat protection are both turned off.
Anyone else experience this?

I doubt many EV owners park their vehicles, without being plugged in, at SOC less than 10%. Curious what your scenario is that puts you in that situation and allows you to see battery drain at such a low SOC.

In any case, I believe Sentry mode and Cabin Overheat Protection are both automatically turned off when the SOC hits 20%.

My guess is that any "drain" you're seeing is related to temperature, as the pack cools.

I'll add that if you're constantly looking at the mobile app to check on your car's battery, you're keeping the car awake. That will make it consume significantly more energy. If that's what you're doing, don't.
