I parked my truck at the airport on 12/17 with 81% SoC, not plugged in charging.

Within the first 16hrs it had already lost 5%. Realized I had left GearGuard on so turned it off.

Subsequent days after that was losing about 1-2% a day until the big -24F storm hit on 12/22 where it lost about 15% over 24hrs, with the SoC being just 56% when I checked in during the storm. Seeing as I still had another week before returning home the anxiety started kicking on, with nothing I could do but stare at that SoC going down.

But then the strangest thing has happened.... since the big storm ended, my truck has been steadily increasing SoC about 1% per day. It's now 12/28 and its at 63% SoC!

I'm dreading getting back to the truck to see what the true state is lol.

Is this at DIA? I’m definitely curious to see what you find. Occasionally I do see the SOC estimate tick up by 1% when I wake the truck, but never like what you describe.
