Tesla Motors: Heated Radar AP 1.0? Autopilot 1.0 =================================== As a follow up to my Heated Autopilot camera video, and viewer requested, by viewer "lunitiks", I have done a thermal video on the Radar on my Autopilot 1.0 car. It is of noticeably higher temperature after a drive and sitting for a while at cold temps. While I am not sure if the higher temp was due to the radar being USED, the placement, road spray, and "wind chill" should have cooled it down quite a bit on the freeway. The radar temp seems to be at least 7-10*F warmer then the surrounding materials & Outside. Without checking it (YET) at lower outdoor temps (Maybe around Zero). It appears that even after sitting in my driveway for 20-30 minutes, the radar was still above FREEZING temps. What does this mean? Well, it appears that the radar "May" have a heating element, to keep it warm. Unfortunately, in my AP 1.0 car, with the Non-Refreshed front end, the placement of the Radar puts it in a spot for heavy Slush and Ice Build Up (See my "Autopilot disabled due to snow" video). One big thing to note, the radar itself did NOT have the slush and ICE stuck to it. The build up covered a space a inch of so away from the radar. Almost as if the radar melted the snow and slush and ice away leaving a "bubble" or "Pocket" in front of itself, and I only had to chip away that excess. Tesla as released information saying that on the Autopilot 2.0 or AP 2.0 cars, all the Autoplot 2.0 (Actually, full autonomous hardware) has heating elements in it. It was just not determined if the AP 1.0 had those heating elements or not. Will investigate further! ►https://www.facebook.com/KmanAuto ►https://www.YouTube.com/KmanAuto ►http://www.SuperchargerTravel.com islandbayy@yahoo.com 414-807-8354
