Lost 7% over 29 hours. No gear guard or proximity. Zero unlocks or openings. Key in faraday pouch. 5.8% per 24 hours. 30-40 ambient. Terrible :(

I did shockingly well over a 12 day period. No gear guard, hadn't been driven recently before test started, all in a 55* garage, app wakes every 4 days or so to track. Parked in All-Purpose standard height. Will also post to a new thread soon with more details.

Drain: 1.17% per day or 3.25 miles range per day.

All tracked via the app/onboard energy showing. Unplugged the whole time so couldn't monitor a more precise kWh in value.
My normal drain is around 2-3% per day/overnight when measured directly after driving.

Outside of a few outliers it seems they have really done a good job addressing phantom drain? Prospective buyer here.

in moderate temps, yes....I personally have only seen 1-2 miles of loss in 12 hours in my conditions....detached garage, 65-80 degrees, AC off, GG off, wifi off, bluetooth on phone off, and fob in faraday pouch. Roughly less than 1% of range loss per day.

I wish I could say the same. Before and after the update my garage temps have been similar. 40-50 degrees at night with outside temps in the 25-40 range. Some nights in 12 hours I lose 5-6 miles and sometimes 1-2. It hasn’t felt appreciably different.

No, they've done nothing ultimately. People are seeing improved numbers since winter is ending and vampire drain seems to be much worse in colder weather.

If your ice car lost 1kw per day due to the connected services, the 12v battery would be dead dead dead dead after the first morning. Millions of cars with with connected services don't suffer this malady.
