Electrical circuits carry usually 80% of rated capacity, so the 14-50A RV circuit actually carries 40 amps. Both of you were correct.

It’s not surprising that you saw slightly better times with a full battery. Lithium ion batteries like the Model S’s have a (slight) decrease in instantaneous energy as the state-of-charge declines. The effect isn’t noticeable in ordinary driving. btw, the Model S is a superbly mannered street car, too!
