POLLING_DEFAULT_INTERVAL?

[eried]

Hi, I see a very frequent "third party location access" when driving, what are the implications of changing this values for polling?

Will this break the dashboards in grafana because they expect 15 seconds data for example?

Are you referring to the icon / notification in-car?

Hi @eried, did you find any improvement with these values? I'm noticing excessive battery drain when teslamate is active and I would like to reduce API fetch

[eried]

oh I stopped using it :) so I never tested further

That is very unlikely, to not say impossible. Most likely you use a different 3rd party tool, or an iOS widget or have vehicle settings wrong (such as keep awake when 12V accessory is connected), or sentry mode or pre-conditioning or so.

Hi @JakobLichterfeld although none of these settings are active I noticed that shutting down Teslamate during long trips save 10% more or less.
The drain problem is occurring during driving mode.
My tesla is a 2020 model and the battery is slightly worn.

Impossible.
