I recently left my MME fully(100%) charged in my garage, while I am on travel for 1.5 months.

After reading the posts regarding long-term storage, after the fact, I am wondering is there a method to discharge some HVB charge remotely?

My vehicle is plugged in to an EmPoria Level 2 charger, but I have charging turned off, or ā€˜paused’.

All recommendations are welcome.

I think the best you can do is the remote "start" (remotely turn on the climate control.) That will only work twice and for 15 minutes each time at most. It might get it down to 99%.

Not great, but you'll probably be fine. If you're leaving for weeks/months at a time, I think the manual says ~50% charge is ideal.
Like everything related to EVs, a little more advance planning is necessary.

Set twice daily departure times and set to Warm.
I think that can help. However, I think ā€˜cool’ will be better as my garage is about 90 degrees daily.

Thanks.

The PTC heater uses way more power than the AC would. Maybe set two departure times a few hours apart but in the middle of the night?
