    This was really cool, I appreciate you taking the time to make the video; little intricacies like this always get lost in the big things. Good to see them documented so I know what I'm getting in to.

    Thanks! My wife often forgets her garage opener when walking the dog and wanting to dry him off if wet. Thanks to this video now she can do it from the Tesla app. Also the sync to current speed limit was very useful to know

    Excellent work! I’ve owned my Model S for 2 1/2 years but I still learned several worthwhile things. The quality of you videos was always high but it is getting even better with time.

    Fantastic video! Thank you for sharing your experience. I sold my cayenne S and order a model X. It should be ready by next week. Your video came in perfect timing. I’ll probably watch it a few time. I hope my standard range would give me enough range to putt around town. (Orange County, San Diego area).
    Love how you display the Star Wars theme tune. Cheers.

    Here's a useful feature I discovered for the top screen icons: Press and hold down on the icon and a mini rectangle appears below the icon. You can then drag the icon to the top or the bottom of the mini rectangle to launch the app at the top or bottom of the screen respectively.

    One thing to try is to double-tap the windshield icon at the bottom for windshield defrost, where it will turn the icon from blue to red. The single tap only defogs the windshield, from what I understand.

    Maybe a nice one for you to tell more people about: When the car is unlocked and you're outside the car and wish to insert a charging cable, just push the charge port as if it's a button, because it is, and it will actually open the port.
    B.t.w. I didn't know you could sync to the speed limit like you explained, thanks!

      Teslavangelist isn’t that only if you left the seats and steering wheel on when you last left the car. I just got the update and I don’t have the ability to turn individual items on. (Yes I do have the 2018.04.01 update and app update). I just have the same ON option.

    • @Teslavangelist
      @Teslavangelist  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Canadian Tesla Martin I don't have the update so I can't test it, but the description in the app sounds like all those heaters will go on when you precondition the car now instead of just air heater. perhlaps individual heaters are not in the app still, as you say

    Hello Brandon, did you buy your Model S from Tesla? I was thinking of getting a used one. Did Tesla fix the cosmetic damages? Did they make the used cars look and feel like new? Thanks.

    • @Teslavangelist
      @Teslavangelist  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I did, it was a service loaner vehicle. they're called 'inventory vehicles.' they did fixed up and made it like new including getting rid of a few rim scrapes. Tesla puts a lot of work into their used ones as well. if you get an INVENTORY vehicle you can still get the fed tax credit and use a referral code for free unlimited Supercharging (mine's available :). used you don't get fed tax credit or free unlimited supercharging.

    • @Teslavangelist
      @Teslavangelist  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      +sebxx yes, it will sync to whatever the posted limit is plus whatever your see adjustment is (5 over or whatever). if come upon a road that is not divided, AP will decrease speed to it's limitation automatically without your input, but I didn't show that

  • @martinsutoob
    @martinsutoob 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    You say once the battery warms up the energy becomes available. But how much energy is used warming up the battery? Surely it comes almost totally from itself and therefore technically it cannot all become available? Interesting.

    • @Teslavangelist
      @Teslavangelist  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      you got me with the legal mumbo-jumbo!!! I'm not sure what the ratio is between the amount of energy unavailable and the energy needed to warm up the battery. but, I do know that even just driving the vehicle warms the battery as a by product of releasing energy.

    • @martinsutoob
      @martinsutoob 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      True. It's just that the only energy available derives from the battery. If the battery is to warm up then it must do that by using its own energy since there is no other source. Ergo, ultimately not all of the unavailable energy will be available for locomotion. It's maybe a nit-picky point, but there you go.
      I would be interested to hear what Tesla think about it. They're probably happy if their customers go around thinking it will all become available. Enjoyed the video by the way.
