What's the point of having "Auto" when the headlight is on ALL the time?

How can 110 watts equal 1% of a 21 kWh battery pack?Nashco said:...Note that turning off the lights will increase efficiency about 1%. ...

It would also depend on your kWh/mile usage.
Roughly, that is 190 hours of DRL.

So I did.Nashco said:....google "NHTSA DRL safety statistic" and you'll see there's a lot of data, but none that can show a strong support for DRLs and safety. ...
NORTON said:But come on.... 1%.... maybe? What is the percentage of improvement driving 1 MPH slower? Or 5 MPH slower?
I choose safety and don't push the range too far into single digit %'s

NORTON said:You could never measure the range effect. It's 110 watts.
Yes, mathematically you can measure it.Nashco said:..You just described how measurable it is! 110 watts over a full charge is about one MILE of range reduction....
