My Lightning has been charging perfectly with my two Gen2 HPWCs since I bought it a year ago. And it still does since the last update- so long as I charge somewhere else in between sessions! Same thing with the Livingston-branded 32A L2 chargers at a local business that I have started using to...

This is a bug of some kind in the bundled DHCP client in QNX, which is the operating system underlying Ford Sync. It gets into a state where it won't accept any responses from a DHCP server and just keeps soliciting for an address forever. The truck indicates it's connected to wifi, but it has...

I too am having ridiculous charging problems with the most recent update or possibly updates (I got the last two very close together). See thread. I have another gripe though. What the heck is with resetting the nighttime screen brightness for all profiles to 100% at every update. And...

Same problem here. Curious to know if you find that visiting a different location (far enough away for the truck to know the difference by GPS) temporarily fixes it for you; it seems to for me. See this thread...

I have been having a similar problem since the most recent update. I have two Gen2 Tesla HPWC either of which will supply 64A. They are at the same location so the truck does not distinguish between them in its charge settings. Since the update a week ago, the truck will successfully charge...

This has been in the works for a long time. I talked to an engineer at SolarEdge about it briefly about 2 years ago, and it was supposed to be about a year from market then. I guess the usual supply chain issues likely held it up. There are some interesting issues that would tend to cut into...

I was at the purported Malta NY location a week ago - driving my wife's car, a Model Y - and was very curious to see what the "Magic Dock" looked like. There weren't actually any. I looked at every charger a couple of times to be sure. I'd be super careful about relying on the map URL posted...

So they're going to do a Tesla to CCS adapter that works with existing Superchargers, meaning it will have to adapt the control protocol. And the only thing preventing its use with other CCS-equipped EVs, I guess, will be that payment is locked to Ford VINs?

What size?

Is the factory spare on a standard wheel or will another Lightning wheel be required?

V2H/V2G are supposedly CCS standards and use the already defined CCS signaling. Any custom signaling required ought to be only between the FCSP and the HIS. I cannot see why the truck should ever need to talk directly to the inverter, or talk a nonstandard protocol to the FCSP; but even if it...

If there was a desire to avoid running additional communication wires - note that communications cable with high voltage insulation (1000V) is available and used for this purpose in many industrial applications, as well as the Gen2 Tesla HPWC, so this would *not* require a second conduit run -...

Why are wireless communications of any kind required here? That's insane; every device involved is wired together.

Gen 2 wall connectors are also capable of 80A and there are still some around listed as Destination chargers. I probably hit one or two a year. I'm a little surprised by this latest bit from TeslaTap as nowhere can I find was it advertised that the 80A TT Mini I bought is actually rated for...

The scheduled departures don't count as "remote starts" as far as I can tell. But they do seem to be controlled by the toggle for remote-start-when-not-plugged-in.

Not much damage. But you can draw the battery down very easily - just set several departure times per day in the app and tell it you want the car "warm" for all of them. When you hit a safe and sane 90% charge, turn the departure times off.

If the main breaker is not in this panel, Sunrun (or an actual competent and attentive electrical designer) should at least consider connecting the charger closer to the main. This most likely isn't the right panel to cram your charger circuit into.

Where is the main breaker? Is this a sub panel?

Local small claims court is a sensible escalation path to get your $100 back. Even if they notice they won't show up because paying a lawyer to appear would cost more than $100.
