Is there a way to pre-heat the Leaf cabin without draining the lithium battery? Even when I'm plugged in to a level 2 charger, the timer climate control depletes a full SOC bar from 80% while parked regardless which priority is chosen. I've confirmed that electricity is actually flowing to the car with an ammeter and it is drawing between 10 and 13 amps on both legs, yet it still depletes the battery. I bought this car assuming I could pre-heat it during Minnesota winters without depleting the battery but no luck so far. Gary
