Has anyone noticed the charging behavior in that the vehicle stops charging 1% prior to the setpoint?

You set it to 70% and in the morning you are at 69%. You set it to 75%, it's 74% when you go out to it.

I am guessing that there are fractions behind the scene and it's stopping at 69.5% as that rounds to 70% and then any vampire drain down to 69.4% causes it to round down the display to 69%.

Here's the kicker: I have my scheduled at home charge to be from 11pm - 6am. I know it's done charging by midnight most nights and it stops. Ok fine, if vampire drain drops it 1% below the setpoint and I still have a good 6 hours left in my available scheduled charging time, why doesn't it start charging again to get me back to 70%? I would think at 5:55am with 5 minutes left of available charge time, it would kick back on and charge if needed to maintain my 70% target.

So in otherwords, once it stops charging, it does not seem to want to start up again until it's been unplugged and plugged back in again? This is at home with a Rivian wall charger.

Was just thinking about this as well… it’s odd because a previous update fixed this same issue late last year but appears to be back again after the most recent 50.01

I never saw this issue until I did the upgrade to 50.01
