I have the 240 outlet plug into my panel box by the generator 50amp plug point.

I noticed on the T-Mobile app it says 12 hours in the control section. Does this mean I have 12 hours of power remaining? The cyber truck is at 100% charge. Or does the 12 hours mean that it will turn off in 12 hours?

anybody know how to monitor the usage in the app. Because of the hurricane, it's a little wet to go in and out of the truck as it parked next to the house.

It turns off 12 hours after activation.
You can indirectly track usage via the battery SOC level.

You can see draw from inside the truck on 'Outlets & Mods'

I don't believe there is a comparable view from the app though you can toggle outlets on/off and will need to turn them back on every 12 hours as they auto shut-off.

Yes, it turns off after 12 hours.
You can always use the app to see the current SoC.
