  1. Supercharger Avg Power

    Nice - your V4 experience was at least 17% faster than what I experienced on V3. Tesla V3+adapter has a thermal issue slowing the charge substantially. (Folks highlighting their peak charging rate in this thread are missing the point). I started bringing my IR thermometer in the truck next to...
  2. Regeneration Question / Info + Apple Maps

    Small correction on the earlier numbers. I think the max power to the motors is 420 kW and 210 kW regen. Test it. From 70 mph, come to a complete stop with 1 pedal by taking your foot off the accelerator and watch your peak regen power. You don’t hit max regen power, 210 kW, or two major...
  3. Regeneration Question / Info + Apple Maps

    The top left of the power/energy circle represents the power to the motors, 100% = 440 kW in four major segments for the 131 kWh extended range battery when you floor it. Each major segment is 110 kW. The bottom left represents the regeneration, two major segments = 220 kW max regeneration on...
  4. Powertrain Malfunction/ Reduced Power

    Bring a ODB reader and clear the error. You can then DC charge normally below 80% and AC below 90%. Above this, charging may slow more than usual as the truck protects itself against overcharging the out of family errant voltage cell. If you don’t have an ODB reader, stop by an auto parts store...
  5. Factory 14-50 30 Amp Mobile Plug works with RV 50 Amp plug (at local RV resort)?

    Steamboat Lake State Park in Colorado isn’t allowing EV charging at electric sites. It’s not an advertised restriction before you book or anywhere in the campground. There is a sign in the outlet box to turn off your light to preserve the night sky. Nothing about EVs. But, the campground host...
  6. How much power does "camping mode" consume?

    Others have reported the truck consumes about 400W ON with AC outlets on. Your test mirrors those reports with larger error bars. You measured 365-509W depending on the fractional percent of the start and end. An accessory battery and inverter is much more efficient for small loads. And you...
  7. Supercharger Avg Power

    I used the Telluride supercharger in a parking garage. Used my adapter and the garage shade ensured direct sun wasn't a factor. But, it's still summer. Starting about 28% SOC, I got about 165 kW peak, but the average dropped to 107 kW by the time I got to 80%. The original Ford spec was to...
  8. Living in a Lightning

    That silly center console interrupts the flat floor for a double. Maybe the next EV-specific platform will get rid of unnecessary obstructions like this. If you use a 2'x4'x0.25" plywood platform seen in Figure 5, you can span the gap between the folded down seats and the console and fit an...

  10. What power source in Lightning is best for fridge?) .

    By better, I assume you mean the most efficient? The fridge uses 12V DC, probably about 50W cycling on and off averaging maybe 20W depending on ambient temperature. I've heard leaving the truck on with AC power inverters active uses 400W (plus any load). If you're talking about leaving the...

  12. Starlink Mini, Does it FIT under the sunroof privacy shade?

    If that were true, your cell phone wouldn't work being surrounded by glass and aluminum. Not in our F-150s. That said, Starlink uses 10.7-12.7 GHz for downlink and 12.75-13.25 GHz, 13.85-14.5 GHz for uplink. The higher Starlink frequency will see more loss than cell phones.
  13. Supercharger Avg Power

    Here's a session from the 250 kW Tesla charger in Rifle, CO 11% to three points yesterday evening. I'm only getting 75% of the average power @tommolog gets =(. He has a handy table graphic at the bottom of this page. He's charging 33% faster than me! It took me an extra 12 min to get to...
  14. Powertrain Malfunction/ Reduced Power

    Most likely. The dash warning says service vehicle soon - you can keep driving until as convenient as it is to give up your vehicle for weeks to a service department. You can clear the error code and continue on trips with DC fast charging if needed. If you have a module with voltage out of...
  15. EVSE and Floating Neutral Generator

    Shorting ground to neutral ("bonded neutral") did the trick for compatibility between the Ecoflow battery powered inverter and the F Mobile EVSE. Ran the ecoflow Delta Pro 3.6 kWh from 91% (3,276 Wh) to 0 in 2h22m with the Ford Mobile EVSE. Fordpass reports 2.8 kWh delivered for 83.5-87.5%...
  16. EVSE and Floating Neutral Generator

    This is 120V charging on the Ecoflow's NEMA 5-20R.
  17. EVSE and Floating Neutral Generator

    I'm color deficient... Here are photos after it stopped charging after delivering 400 Wh in 20 minutes. Plugged the Ford EVSE into the garage house power next it was still charging after delivering 800 Wh in 40 min.
  18. EVSE and Floating Neutral Generator

    I'm charging off of truck-roof solar through an Ecoflow Delta Pro with a floating neutral. The Ford Mobile EVSE charges initially, but stops after ~20 min after delivering 400 Wh. Curious the Amproad EVSE doesn't care about the floating neutral but the Ford EVSE cares... after 20 min. Seems...
  19. EVSE and Floating Neutral Generator

    Edit: Ford EVSE does not like Ecoflow Delta Pro's floating neutral. Amproad EVSE charges fine with it. I'm at 35k miles, and the Ford EVSE keeps illuminating the amber light shortly after plugging in. Ford pass reports a charging error. The Amproad EVSE works fine in the same conditions. Do...
  20. Module Energy Capacity

    I had module #3 replaced. I've just had the vehicle back a couple of days. After getting the repaired vehicle back, AC charging was slowing above 93% which was the identical symptom with a cell 30 mV out of balance pre repair. I've been charging to 100% and discharging (driving) to see if...
