I was not interested in "waiting" for an adapter, ordered the A2Z Typhoon Pro and got it the same week. free shipping in Canada, Done. It is a very solid adapter, that works, and came in a nice zip up case. It fits perfecly in the storage area in front of the gear shift area, without the case...

Should edit the thread title - the problem that wasn't !

Thanks I looked back through some posts. It appears the max Resting Voltage of the Lightning pack is 390-392 volts. This translates in a 96s pack to 4.06 to 4.08 volts per cell. From the paper by Dr Dahn, the 90% nickel cells have a 'top voltage' of 4.4volts, however significant deterioration...

I have been lead to believe the Lightning is using the Li-NiMnCo 9.5.5 (90% nickel) version of the NMC chemistry - would like to confirm this...if anyone has a definitive source.

I would like to know for sure the top voltage of a 100% charged Lightning pack. I have seen 390 v (which is 4.06v per cell) if the actual top voltage per cell is 4.09 then 100% is then 392.6v If this is right, then the top voltage of the pack is between 393.6v and 403.2v I have a scanner - I...

Some interesting information about our battery packs: here The vid and Q n A are pretty long but the most interesting part to me is from 20:00 to 35:00 where Dr Dahn discusses the high nickel Li-Ni 90/05/05 (our battery chemistry in the Lightning) and the effects long term on high SOC charging...

GoEVparts.ca for the A2Z Typhoon Pro. free shipping in Canada, cost was $219CAN plus tax, worked out $248.59 CAN (less than the USD equiv for the Ford unit). It shipped to me in a few days from order. I have been useing the adapter - it is very solid. Edit - and it came in a nice zip up case...

also -40 F ie exactly the same. -40C = -40F = damn cold out.

Yes, words to live by. Although it would be unusual for the oil to get on your own front bumper - like you point out it is possible via pin-hole and spraying under pressure. On the other hand if this came from a vechicle in front of you, I would expect the oil to go up all over your...

Beautiful car, actually looks like a unique car instead of all the nearly identical looking xyz models that have been released in the last decade where every brand's new offerings look just like every other brand. I love the black shadow lines with the deep red body. Classy. Hey since you're...

Great idea, I put a comment on PetroCanada contact about the problem, but I bet it will be ignored - but a comment on Plugshare will get some views. While at the Nipigon Tesla charging area at the tourist information stop, a local lady stopped to charge her Model 3 - she said "those PC chargers...

I decided to go for a drive today - why not - drove to Nipigon and found the two PetroCanada chargers in deep snow - no one bothered to plow it out it seems. Tried both units and neither one was working - the charger asked for my Petro Can App - which was also on the display as 'retired' Dec...

And then the 'chicken and egg' problem - they close EV chargers because they were under-used in an area ...who will buy an EV in an area that doesn't have chargers...and how will charger use increase if no one buys EV's in an area without chargers...

Interesting question - just try it and report back ?! LOL, now I want to try it...

Up-date - Petro Canada now use a RIFD chip from a Credit Card to activate the charger - worked perfectly first try. I see they just have a touch screen and menu - choose CC or Applepay etc. a few options, and you don't need a dedicated App or a PetroCanada Petro-pass either - just the CC is all...

I have a complete solarPV-battery-inverter system, and average 37kWh per day to run the buildings, plus another 20-25kWh per day to top up the Lightning to 80% SOC. During Winter there is no way my system can collect 60kWh per day, and I use overnight ToU utilty (low overnight rates) to charge...

Thanks for sharing your experiences, I see that leaving an known area for another unknown one will mean doing some research on the avaiable charging network, and what apps are needed to activate them. I did some online checking, looking like Petro-Canada has gone to CC DC RFID activation for...

I see they had a separate PetroPass EV but the website shows this was 'retired' in Dec 2024...with what to replace it? I will check it out tomorrow, there is a PetroCanada station near-by I can test with. I signed up for Electrify Canada - and then saw their map ! Well now I know why I have...

do they have their own app as well? or did you activate the petro pass via one of the other apps - ie Ford Pass or PlugShare or ChargeHub (so many!)

going to be expensive this year!
