CSV Tag Download Additions
Some Things I would be grateful if they could be enhanced:
* would it be possible to also get the comment field and start/end GPS coordinates ?
CSV Download issues
I'm seeing a couple of issues with the downloaded .csv for tagged drives.

Drive efficiency in Model X
A nice idea for Model X owners will be to have a different Drive efficiency calculations as now are the same for Model S and Model X (based on 20kWh/100km).
As you know Model X is larger and weights more than Model S and Typical range should be calculated different and maybe based in something between 22kWh/100km and 23kWh/100km
The kWh calculations are already unique to each vehicle. It uses the rated miles available at a 100% completed charge (or extrapolated from 90%+ completed charge) along with the battery size for the vehicle to determine how much energy was used. This "factor" is then used to calculate the kWh used based on how many rated miles were actually used on the drive. The reason that the factor needs to be adjusted is because TeslaFi currently assumes the battery size to be the advertised kWh available but we know that the majority of time that number is lower. For example a 85 kWh may actually have 77.5 kWh available.
Also, the maximum rated range for the vehicle is constantly updated each time a max range charge is completed and it's stamped to each data point stored in TeslaFi. This way kWh calculations performed on any data point are based on the battery state at that point in time and recent changes will not effect prior data.
Hopefully this helps a little. There's more to it, but this is the easiest way to explain it.
Download drives as logbook
It would be really useful to be able to download the drives for a specified period (default: yesterday?) as excel(csv); The information on the daily listing pretty much matches what I would need - starting point, end point, start odometer, end odometer, start time end time.
This would really make the task of keeping a logbook of drives much less aggravating.
Download drive list to excel, add business/privte indicator and possibly a comment and it's done.
Hi, you can currently do all of this.
If you click on the note icon to the right side of each drive you can 'tag' it as a certain category and add a not for each drive.
If you visit the tag.php page located in the footer with a tag icon you can download drives into a csv file. You can download by date with or without a tag filter. If you leave the tag filter blank it will download all drives within the time period specified.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
James
"Estimated Completion" not updated when Max Charge level changed
Steps to reproduce:
- Start charging the car with max charge level at, for example, 60%.
- Open TeslaFi and note the "Estimated Completion" time in the current charge record.
- Close TeslaFi
- Change the max charge level (e.g. from 60% to 90%) before charging is complete.
- Open TeslaFi and look at the "Estimated Completion" tims in the current charge record.
Result:
- "Estimated Completion" time does not change as a result of changing the Max Charge level.
Expected Result:
- "Estimated Completion" time should be updated when max charge time changes.
Suggestion: instead of putting the "estimated completion" DURATION in the charge record, why not put the estimated time of day at which the charge will be complete? This can always be calculated by adding the API datum time_to_full_charge to the current time of day. If this is updated whenever the charge record is displayed, then isn't that more useful?
Why 'None' in many data columns?
In looking at the raw data feed, many items are listed as 'None' when the connection state is online. Why would things like inside/outside temp and shift state be none? Shouldn't we be able to see the status as parked and the temps? There may be others, but have not looked through all the columns.
Temperature readings are only reported when the car is active, usually when in motion or conditioning is on. If the car is idle, the API will not return anything to those requests.
Any data reported in the raw data page is unaltered aside from any international conversions.

Combined Record Types Do Not Add Up to 24 Hours for an Individual Day
On a whim, I decided to add up the times for sleep, idle, drive, charge, and Supercharge about a week ago. In almost every case, they add up to anywhere from 4 to 15 minutes shy of a full 24 hours.
Shouldn't the data equal 24 hours? Not sure if the missing time is represented by issues with get a response from the API.
Some data:
| 2/23 | 2/22 | 2/21 | 2/20 | 2/19 | 2/18 | |
| Sleep | 2:14 | 2:44 | 10:05 | 18:47 | 15:55 | 15:22 |
| Idle | 13:33 | 15:15 | 4:26 | 5:09 | 7:00 | 8:12 |
| Drive | 1:36 | 1:17 | 4:43 | 0:59 | 0:20 | |
| Charge | 6:25 | 4:35 | 0:48 | |||
| Supercharge | 1:51 | |||||
| Total | 23:48 | 23:51 | 21:53* | 23:56 | 23:54 | 23:54 |
| Missing | 0:12 | 0:09 | 2:07 | 0:04 | 0:06 | 0:06 |
* Car was in service mode on 2/21 presumably for the amount of time missing from 24 hours.
Add Link to Sleep Alert Email to More Quickly Start Polling
Until the cookies can be extended, is it possible to add a link to the sleep alert email to allow the user to start polling again without having to sign in again? It could be randomized and encoded in order to avoid any potential security issues.
Loss of Power While Charging Shows Incorrectly
The outlets at work seem to be very fickle and either reduce the charging from 16a to 12a randomly or will lose power entirely (especially if someone plugs into the next plug apparently tripped the breaker, as had happened today).
Looking at Charge 118 from today, the charge started at 12:04 p.m. then was interrupted at 12:48 p.m. The UMC was not lit green and the IC was showing zeros for volts, amps and mph so the power basically stopped at this particular outlet (and all the ones nearby).
You may need to determine how to handle a scenario when someone had been charging then the power was stopped abruptly. Looking at the charge table data, it looks like 40a was being requested but it was either returning 0 or none values. The charging_state field also seems to go from Charging to NoPower so perhaps the site needs to not record the car as charging but idle? I don't know...
