Tesla driver: "oh no, I only have 27km! What do I do now, what do I do now?? Aaaaa!!" - gen1 Leaf driver: "27 km? A whole 1/4 of my battery - daily routine, no need to be worried at all" 😂

I love the Teslabjørn Rescue Missions!

Huh? Sentry Mode is suppose to turn off automatically once SoC gets to 20% ?

Regarding yellow strips - 1. Tesla replacing the only screen of MCU, not MCU itself. 2. And it not even replacing it anymore, they have some temporal fix with UV light emitter.

Please Elon! 'Airport mode'!!!

I may have been dreaming this (strange dreams I know), but I thought sentry mode disables itself at 20% SOC, and the car generally should go into a deep sleep below 20% SOC so one would expect to lose less than 1 percentage point SOC per day.

could you park it at Gardermoen slowcharging, and leave it there until they come back?

Thank Bjørn for rescue mission. Maybe one day can we change some important settings from mobile app ... would be nice. Sometime I missed already drop amps of charging, schedule stop and so on ... We are already happy we have a nice app, some car don't have any :).

Bjørn for rescue missions have a bag packed with all adaptors, it would save having to guess what they may have in the car. You could get a nice Thunderbirds themed backpack!

Tocn has some chademoadapters at the gas stations close to the AirPort that has chademo. Circle K and Shell close to mcd i think. Because of this.

4:08 at least the price was per kWh... On destinations chargers kWh is, in my opinion, best. They can have a larger numbers of stalls, and balance the power if needed.

I've ran sentry mode for 3-4 days but recommended in covered parking. The MCU stays active and drains a lot especially for cabin overheat protection in the sun.

I really envy Norway for this charging infrastructure. In Denmark we usually have one fast charger per location.

Unfortunately the yellow border is not under warranty but I've seen that they can temporarily fix it with some UV light tool but the tool isn't here in the EU yet.. I do hope it's here soon as it is very present in my S100D

Of course what we need is for the car to drop us off at the airport and then drive home and plug itself in, then pick us up when we return.

This why we need photovoltaics on EVs. Not to add more kWh to range like 10-15 km a day, but to allow some electronics to run while the car is parked without draining the battery pack. We use more and more electronic devices, like dashcams or alarms that should be on 24/24, maybe batteries need minimal heating in extremely cold weather, etc. On the other hand, if I follow Elon Musk, it's the car that should instead think for itself when the battery is low, "What should I do? Should I call Bjørn so he can charge me up? Nah, I'll just drive myself to the next supercharger. Well, I'll call him nevertheless so he can film me doing my thing for his KZfaq channel. They should add a "Oh" and a "Ah" button on KZfaq, not just a "Like" button."

Sentry mode uses 20-25 miles of range in my 2019 MS Raven while parked. So much for a more efficient model.

More rescue missions! Just FYI On apple iphone X you triggered Siri 2 times during the video. By saying you see, or your famous oh shiiiiet. Dont stop though! More Siri means the better the video is because usually things do not go as expected. And that we learn from.

Uncle Bjorn for the win

In Bjørn we trust.

The model x 75 was manufactured with mcu 1 (and ap2.5) up until feb/March 2018. Mine was produced in jan'18 and has the yellow border problem too 😒

Thanks for another video Bjorn

Bjørn, Are you confusing MCU and AP versions? The always connected and energy saving options are available on MCU1, independent of AP version. MCU1 cars exist with both AP1, AP2 and AP2.5. Guess this is a MCU1, AP2 car, that only has sentry, not dashcam, since it only has the 11kW charger. There is 16,5kW charger in all AP2.5 cars. Dashcam is AP2.5 only..

12 days to drain the battery in sentry mode! That seems crazy fast.

OK Bjorn, I finally took your advice. I have ordered a CHadMO adapter from Tesla, I have seen other videos of yours, where you say "get a CHadMO adapter!". The first time I'm real low and at a secondary charger in the USA, without a CHadMO, I'll be saying shiiit'

Another very entertaining and informative Vlog. Thank you for sharing!!

44 stalls!!? Our only local supercharger between our 2 major provincial cities is 4 slalls, out of the way of the highway and frequently has ICE cars in the slots. Fingers crossed for some new tech up here soon.

Regular dash cam uses about 3ma waiting and 0.5amp in use, however, it will likely be powered by your 12v lead acid battery. So, same problem, if your 12v battery is flat you get same issues. I had this trouble on an EV before. It’s supposed to shut off earlier, but it would be nice if the software went into a mode that did not continual record, but only when there was movement, not as good but then not 6kw per day, insane.

I've seen that "Tafjord" Model X around Tønsberg area, for sure.

I sure wish the Model 3 had a "typical" range setting. If it's confusing to have both, they should stick with typical. Rated range is always available in the energy display.

It'll have to be a 2017 or early 2018 Model X, which has MCU 1 and AP2.0 or AP2.5. I have the same thing.

I can't understand why sentry mode uses so much power. It should just keep the computer running at a low level and enough for the cameras when motion is detected... this doesn't make sense. Surely Tesla needs to improve and optimize Sentry mode.

I had a dream that Tesla announced a new Model X with 8 seats today

Tesla should really implemented the vehicles with solar pannels to prevent battery draining.

This is an edge case where some invisible edge solar panels catching holographically refracted sunlight through the windshield to its edges could recharge some battery enough to deal with this. If such a feature was studied long enough, it could become economical to do for most the vehicles. A few kwh per day could be added in sunny climates if they had an online supercapacitor.

On the Model 3 you need to turn off BOTH the Sentry and the Security on the car display to get the 12 V turning it off.

Wow, 250w for a few camera’s and sensors is a lot of power!

Isn't sentry mode illegal? In some countries you need special permission (or at least marked with signs) to have an unattended security/surveillance camera filming.

Title should be "Sentry Mode uploads video of car thief to youtube"

Bjorn's food & charge. Could be a nice name for a Roadside Restaurant.

I was impressed when you bothered to check the rating of the adaptor cable.

Hi TB, I have the yellow border on my AP2.0 and MCU 1 screen. Screen hasn’t been replaced under warranty and still waiting for an update from Tesla UK on this ....

Nice vid mate,. and for the ones who struggle to watch your model 3's footage, I like to use sentryplayer, if you google it you should find it pretty easily

Nice videos as always "it happens to me, could happen to you" says uncle bjorn

Bjorn, myth busters tested that with the AC on it uses less energy than windows down. I'm not sure what car they used but I'd think it's the same with Tesla

250w? Sounds like the gpu and the cpu of autopilot is working when sentry mode is on.

No replacement for the screen, they'll try to hide the border using UV light, and MCU2 upgrade not available at any price.

Will you do a video on BigOil Circle K now building their own charging network?

I wonder if they'll add a dedicated dashcam computer that has access to the video signal. That way it won't have to rely on the power hungry autopilot computer.

Is the sentry mode running of the main computer system? perhaps Tesla should have a dedicated curcuit board to run the cameras in sentry mode, should consume less power?

They stop replacing the screens, more like repair it with UV, but takes a lot of time.

Where is the nearest SuperChargers location ?

If you have a CCS to Type 2 adapter, you can make easy deal with these problems.

Why is the screen lagging so much? Is it because of the age of the car or outdated software?

Good vid.

You need to switch it off from the menu not from the main screen otherwise it will switch on

Eventually these long term parking spots will probably need a Type 2 connection with like 1-2A limit so EVs don't run out :P

not surprise, because Sentry need CPU to keep running and burning all that energy. From what I understand it'll draw power over 100 watt. (based on info on Autonomy day)

I’m still waiting for the Sentry mode firmware... MX 100D March 2019, shipped to Sweden with an older firmware. :(

Sentry Mode and 200-250 W consumption, hmm well done Tesla, it seems that not everything can be programmed effectively. Some of DSP consume about 15-25 W for H265 encoding...

The mode always connected are OFF or ON when you leave the car ? And energie saver ON or OFF ?

Can’t change rates and realistic range on model 3😕

With Sentry Mode enabled and plugged in my S takes 3-5kW every day starting at 7am, which is sheeet as car is scheduled for 00:30 start on cheap electric but as the charge is full it doesn’t need to charge, but at 7am it charges away. BUG! How much electric is Sentry Mode wasting around the world...??

I don't see the problem with letting it slow-charge if it will recharge in 24 hours and they come back in 3-4 days? I would consider it mission-accomplished at that point?

I wonder how much a small solar panel connected to the 12v battery would help this.

How about a solar charger for the 12 volt battery?

19:30 looks like orange cheese to me

The 75 got 98 Max before update

Business opportunity. A company you call when your car is out of juice when you’re away.

Does faster charging shorten the battery life?

Vampir consumption is only a Tesla problem. Keep your battery always full.

WHY does nobody in Europe get custom plates? Guess those 60% taxes aren't working out that great haha

Can we disable sentry mode from app?

Should it not have a 16.5 kW charger? Or is the car from the time when 11 kW was standard and 22 kW an option?

Kjører alltid gjennom Råholt om jeg trenger å spare batteri.

21:12 shows names and vin. Maybe edit it out?

I have yellow edges on my UK TMS75D. Tesla no longer replaces screen, I have to wait for their magic UV pen fix.

Haha you are too funny man. 109 kw it is

This car has mcu1 and ap2.0

Tesla will fix that problem just give them time to work on this issue.

Pretty easy to figure out who owns the car. The first name is on the display and the last name is on the license plate.

e-tron people would be laughing, but then we show them Model 3 screen and they are done.

It's still early days in the EV evolution or revolution? 🙏🏻

You use to much ifs, what you don't do you don't know. So if you think something go faster you need to do that. Not go back in the past.

Haha, stupid EV owners. My gas car never has to worry about the battery running down while I'm on vacation! ...oh, wait...

Minor comment but I would guess you need Tesla in the video title to get more views but you knew that anyway and just forgot.

300 watts to run a camera? Thats ridiciolous.

Tesla driver I have 27 km ah sheet

Always fun how a parked tesla in sentry mode uses more electricity per day than my household.. look at those tesla's being green and great for the environment..

this video would have been 20 seconds long in a fossil car.

Lol

Is this what life with an EV is like?
