I’m not sure of the intricacies but this change was made to avoid the dead 12v situations. I imagine now as the main battery can now recharge the lithium one easily it keeps it topped up somehow to avoid this happening.
I left my Tesla for nearly 3 week holiday not plugged in and it was fine when i came back.
They used to but not anymore, they now have a rechargeable lithium 16V battery.
So they went back and fixed all of the old ones? That’s not something I had heard of, tbh.

Will it still run that dead in sentry mode while the engine batteries remain charged and unused?
