This was the final shoe to drop to make this a perfect truck IMO. The public charging infrastructure (outside of Tesla) is horrid as we all know. Now we just need a marketing push, or wait until the old farts die. Most people (I would guess) still don't know the difference between and kW and...
Personally I'd open the backed breaker and keep PV off. Not sure what would happen if the PV inverter tried to sync with the truck, but the cost and risk of that experiment is not worth it IMO.
Power is designed to flow OUT of the 30A outlet in the truck, not into it. The inverter in the...
Just send my Tesla adapter please.
Aside, either we need better outreach and EV advocates, or we need to wait for the current generation to die off. I had a lengthy conversation with my ~70 year old uncle and the ignorance on display was mesmerizing. Granted it's new tech but even explaining...
JFC. Total estimated cost is $12,700! I could buy three Enphase AC batteries for that cost.
Legit surprised they did not learn from the failure of the HIS. Everyone wants backup power, but no one wants it at that price, especially when you can do you own whole or partial backup for ~1/3 of...
This.
I wish they just made an 80A version with a J1772 connector. The Whole Home Backup is bloatware, and the charger does not communicate with any of the utility Demand Management programs across the country. And the new truck don't even have 80A of charging capability.
I feel like a...
I wouldn't let SunRun park in my driveway, let alone do any work in my house.
Your state likely has a database of authorized installers if there's an incentive program. Start there
The answer is here, if you read between the lines. The N and G conductors should never "see" each other.
Lots of folks will state that you're creating a hazard by wiring the system in a particular way but my theory is, if you don't have an existing fault in the house, you're not going to be...
Where do we find our reservation number? I submitted mine successfully through the app, but now I can't find anything confirming the number or estimated ship date?
Thoughts?
I suppose that would depend on it there's any electronics in the adapter, and if some sort of digital handshare takes place.
Some folks on here have already charged with A2Z and we haven't seen any followup posts about them getting black listed. IMO it's not worth the risk. I have no desire...
I'd love to see my max tow package be able to sustain 150kw for at least half a session due to the extra cooling loop. Seems like that could be programmed pretty easily.
I'd bet Ford nerfed TF out of the charging curve for safety and real world testing. Hopefully once they have 3-4 years of...
I just can't wipe the smile off my face. This was the last hurdle to make the Lightning a perfect vehicle. Now the crappy DCFC network is no longer a threat.
Just amazing! Can't wait to get yelled at by a Tesla fanboy for hogging two charging stalls!
