...requires me to use their charger to take advantage of the favorable charging rates here in NE FL and stay in their program. Second I called SunRun yesterday, you may guess how that went, conversation for another time.
If someone could recommend a transfer switch with 4 to 6 circuit...
No, not bi-directional. But according to this post the HIS can charge the truck off solar but it uses a DC-AC inverter and thus the onboard AC charger.

Are the DC pins "bi-directional" if you have the Sunrun setup? So can the truck consume power from a DC battery feed by the solar panels OR directly from the solar panels and also provide DC back to the Sunrun battery or inverter to run the house?
Thanks for all that info! Qmerit has assigned a company to look over the quote estimate I was given and they probably will have to come out in person to really give me an accurate number. I also have the electrician who wired up my house when it was built last year so he's my second number I'm...
...is limited to 48A charging, but the FCSP can be dialed down to that level and put on a 60A breaker in the house panel.
I had no luck with Sunrun either. They have pulled out of solar NVa installations they told me on the phone, and didn't call back about the possibility of a HIS (home...
I got the code yesterday at 5 p.m. and tried it at 7 p.m. and it was invalid lol ?
The customer care woman had no idea why it didn't work, it's never dome this before I was told lol
Oh wow, so even before the coupon policy, it still took a while to get it? That's crazy! Takes a while to get that and these level 3 charger adapters, even longer lol
...a coupon code. I had to fill out some form when I picked up the truck that the dealer sent to (maybe Ford first I’m not sure )they sent to Sunrun. After about two weeks I started calling Ford and Sunrun but that was mostly a waste of time. Someone from Sunrun called me a day after one of my...
...their form, energysage, last week, but no contacts yet.
I also am a COSTCO member and they have a promotion going on, which is why I tried Sunrun first, plus it is who Ford partnered with.
I am going to have to do some leg work it seems.
I have been waiting until I replaced our roof which...
I looked at Sunrun a couple years ago because they had a deal with Costco so I had them come out to give me a quote. They were ridiculously expensive! I believe you can still purchase the HIS and have it installed by your own electrician as well. It seems a bit pricey in my opinion, and from the...
Yes, I want solar here too eventually.
I tried calling Sunrun to get a solar quote, but they said they pulled out of Fairfax County, VA where I live. But they gave me no reason why they won't do a solar installation here.
I was interested in the HIS (Home Integration System) as well and...
Ford outsourced the highly-marketed automatic home back-up system to Sunrun (fail), and manufacture of these adapters (fail). And obviously they have only bought their way into charging networks, like Tesla's. I can't imagine them burning the bridge with Tesla by suing the piss out of them, when...
$1,600 won't be bidirectional...
I strongly recommend you spend some time reading the forum and learning. Don't learn one thing and then assume you have it all figured out.
250kWh free is to learn how to DC Fast charge. Period. On a trip where you go from 20% to 80%, that is 3 charges...
I definitely appreciate this comment. Makes me feel less silly about everything. I mean, I'll probably end up having it installed because I don't want to be without and the home electricity price is the whole coats savings either these EVs nowadays. Out and about? It's not really all that great...
...pulling the trigger on purchase, and your salesperson wasn't very knowledgeable about the home charge install landscape-- if they recommended sunRun any time in the last 2-3 months they're behind the 8-ball.
1600 for a bidirectional home charger install (assuming you stick with the ford...
