  1. Ford HIS is dead. Here's what F-150 Lightning + Charge Station Pro owners can actually do for V2H in 2026.

    Any of y'all want to send photos of your trucks doing cool stuff so i can use it on my website? I won't be giving you any royalties so don't ask. Free use! Thanks in advance. PS - cool stuff includes being parked after a meditative wash, shinny in the sunlight. Night photos, console ambient...

    You're welcome! We have stock and In-house financing with no prepayment penalty.

    Couple things to add, your actual hourly draw at the 2,400 kWh (high end) is 3.3 kWh average, more like 2.4 kWh at 1,700. The 11.5 kW inverter is light work for that. Those 21.5 kW headline loads are max-rate numbers, not constant, Lightning at 10.5 kW only pulls that during an active charge...

    Few things to separate out: PV is your solar panels feeding DC/AC into the Controller. The 23 kW is what's possible on a golden day with enough array to back it, real production fluctuates with sun. 11.5 kW is the continuous AC output. 17 kW for 10-second peaks (the AC startup surge for...

    You're right it wasn't you but it was in relation to - If I had a battery system at home I think that I would simply hook the 7.2kW in the truck bed to the battery‘s charger when it was necessary. The mains connection could just be a plug, or you could go fancy and have a relay with utility...

    Real improvement! Still a different layer. Whenever PPOB is actively supplying load, the truck still runs cooling fans, pack thermal management, and electronics cooling to support the onboard inverter doing the DC-to-AC conversion. The 2025 wakes that stack automatically instead of asking the...

    if you go that route: when the truck supplies it, the propulsion system stays partially active to support the onboard inverter, cooling fans, pack thermal management, electronics cooling all kick on. So there's a parasitic draw beyond the actual load you're pulling.

    Hey Petah, yeah, they work without a battery. Still needs a floor or wall base. But you can add a battery at a later date. Caveat it won't give you the advertised throughput because it supplemented itself with the stored energy from the battery. It's kind of like DEF fluid.

    Congrats on that awesome setup. Really cool! for the 45 kWh equivalent with the V2X module included, the Sigenergy path lands roughly a third less than what 3 Powerwalls typically run installed. A few other things worth knowing: All 45 kWh sits in one stack, not three separate cabinets, same...

    Answering in order. Cost depends on config. We offer the full service of getting it installed, permit running and commissioning plus we have in house financing with no prepayment penalty. Output to the house yes, more than HIS. With the truck as the source, the limit is the Controller's AC...

    Tom, brand loyalty makes sense, and the two can actually work together. Your Enphase microinverters keep doing what they do, both systems connect at the AC distribution panel, so there's no conflict. The Sigenergy adds battery storage and V2H on top! Enphase's charger, if/when it ships, will be...

    Siden EVDC Charging module is up to 80 Amps of output. It's a fast charger (you could say level 3) Up to 25kW in/out (fluctuates)

    The hack would be more of a jailbreak and then most likely void all kinds of other things. The worst part is that this hypothetical will most likely be temporary! Since the Lightning itself would get firmware updates and then whoever responsible for the patch would need to repatch again. On a...

    Yes, not me though,"I just work here" - It's a Sigenergy thing but they provide ample means to support folks. You can run ethernet, your own Wireless dongle or their own Comm Module. It has a data they can provide with 3 years or 5 years' worth. The hardware is so reliable that they believe...

    Howdy feller, Honestly, we don't see many issues, State side. The customers we work with are the kind of guys who'll diagnose stuff themselves before reaching out, and the system itself is built solid. Warranty's ten years from the manufacturer with a five-year extended on top of that. The one...

    Quick disclosure up front: I'm with Eos Backup and Battery, a Houston-area firm, we mainly deploy on the foundation of Sigenergy/Pointguard technology (Including their awesome V2H EVDC bidirectional charger). The post below isn't a pitch, it's what I keep telling Lightning owners who reach out...
