I'm ready to provide witness statement in front of court about the 8% per day battery loss from sentry mode on a 2022 M3P. It's not even on a busy street, just a shitty software. Not sure why you want to argue about that.

Edit: Sorry maybe this sounded a bit too rough, but unplug your car and check it yourself. It's like someone is siphoning gasoline from your vehicle every single day.

I don't think they were doubting you, they were expressing surprise that it could lose that much charge so quickly

75kWh * 8% = 6kWh, 6kWh/24h = 250W. Maybe thermal management can't go low enough.

Pretty crazy that simple motion detection is taking that much power. It is absolutely shitty software.

The battery capacity on that car is incredible, you could put a 4090 in there and run it and it would maybe drain 8% a day, right? So something extremely irresponsible is going on.

A 4090 has TDP of 450W, at which it would drain over 14%.
