Here is a thread from very early on in the history of Lightning that has more info. @FlasherZ diagnoses the problem with the Gen1 units and indicates his works at 72A - mine usually does not. Note that just a few messages down, the TeslaTap guy indicates that the non-Lightning TeslaTap Mini is...

I have a TeslaTap adapter, which works well. When the Lightning first came on the market he insisted that his standard 80A adapter would charge the Lightning at 80A on all Gen1 and Gen2 wall connectors. Several of us here who tried it on the Gen1 had to tell him otherwise. The Gen1 puts out a...

I'd be suspicious of the adapter. If it's as poorly made as the other $89 offering I'm aware of (the Hansshow adapter) it may well be heating up and limiting your charge rate. Which Tesla Wall Connector do you have? 1st or 2nd generation? The 1st generation units do not play nice with...

This happened to me. I too have two chargers (Tesla HPWC gen 2) at home. Thread The problem would resolve for a single charge cycle each time I drove somewhere else to charge and came back. Consecutive attempts to charge on either of my home chargers would behave as you describe. I also...

Word to the wise, EA may have fixed the problems with the 350kW chargers at that station, but you don't want to count on using it some times of day (well, OK, night/evening). Crowds from the nightclub across the street use the Walmart lot and those chargers are in the very closest spaces for...

I'm happy with the Blizzak LTs on my truck, which came off my ICE F150. I think they'll make it one more season. But I'll be replacing them with Nokians unless, as was the case when I bought the Blizzaks, there just aren't any to be found - I had waited until early November that year and the...

What size wheels? Price and selection are a little better if your winter wheels are 18".

Note that the Gen1 Tesla wall charger is incompatible with the Lightning at 80A. The Lightning does not like the pilot signal sent by the Gen1 HPWC and charging never starts. I have also had poor results (very low rate charging) with a Gen1 HPWC dialed down to 72A maximum. I haven't had time...

The Tesla HPWC used to be rated for 277V and the onboard chargers in their cars will definitely handle it. 277V is a common lighting voltage derived from 480V service in industrial or large commercial settings. It's often available at the base of parking lot light towers and many of those...

I would love to understand the signaling used to do this. If you're going to trick something, why make it the wall charger instead of the truck?

This problem went away as suddenly as it appeared. I don't know what to think. I do notice my truck now supposedly (according to the app) has an update queued, but it is the frunk chime one, that (according to the truck) was successfully installed just prior to this problem starting. And it's...

Since replacing my Pixel 4 with a Pixel 6 this problem has become much more...reliable. Now, if I dial by touching the truck screen, or by using Ford's speech recognition, everything is fine; if I initiate the call from the phone, on the other hand, whether with Google Assistant or by dialing...

The rear seats on my Lariat have the same perforated leather as the front. But they're not actually cooled, are they? The rear passenger seems to have their own controls for seat heat but nothing else. We don't use the back seat much; in fact I am one of those people who really wishes the...

What are you paying for the 18" Pro wheels? I wanted to buy a set with my Lariat ER, for winter use, back in June last year, and they weren't even in the dealer's parts database but he was verbally told nearly $1000 *per wheel* when he called Michigan to ask. I ended up finding a set of 18"...

For maximum flexibility I would recommend a Tesla UMC, a TeslaTap (to adapt the UMC to your truck) and a good kit of plug adapters for the Mobile Connector. It's out of stock but this bundle might give you an idea what's possible. These adapters automatically limit amperage according to the...

I see little point to comparing the summer ("all season") configurations of vehicles under winter conditions. If you care about winter traction you're not running summer tires. The last 5 cars we've owned have been a Subaru Outback, a Model S, a Model Y, a 2020 ICE F150 and the ER Lightning...

None of these adapters work at what you're calling "a Tesla commercial charge spot"./ (A DC fast charger). The TeslaTap adapters cost more because they're the name brand, they're better made, and they drove their only reputable competitor (QC) out of the market. The difference in price between...

Like this or different?

This has been happening to me since the latest update.

On a hunch, I just checked my charge history in the app and it's totally scrambled. Sessions listed as on the wrong charger, sessions missing, etc. Something is definitely corrupting data. Others here complain that their saved charge locations don't trigger if they're at the other end of the...
