One other point. Even though your furnace might use natural gas so the only electrical draw is for the fan/ignition, if you house has cooled and the differential between the room temperature and the thermostat setting is greater than 3 degrees or so, you furnace probably has a resistance...

This article (. Motor Trend Article ) talks about a $18K cost to install Ford's backup system. My approach is to install a 220v female plug outside connected to my electrical box with a 40 amp circuit breaker. I did it myself for about $100, but is would probably cost 3-5 times more to have...

With my dog in the Lightning, usually I leave the truck running w/air on and lock the door. Today it was cool, so I cracked the windows about an inch, turned it off and locked the doors. Several times, the emergency horn sounded. Fortunately,I was still close and could turn it off with my...

I set the limit in the FordPass App to 85%. It still charged to 100% using the FCSP.

I have a FCSP set at 60 amps. When I start a charge, I go to the center console and set up the charge limit to 80%. The Lightning then computes a finish time for the charge. The problem is that the Lightning ignores the limit and continues to charge to 100%. I took the Lightning up to the...

I haven't read anything specific for the lightning battery, but general EV battery life management seems to be: - Keep the battery between 20% and 80% whenever possible. - Constant use of high current DC charging will reduce battery life. - Operating when it is too cold or too hot effects...
