  1. Is the Rivian Adventure Network open to Lightnings yet?

    New Rivian stations just opened in Astoria Oregon. Plugged in this afternoon to test. No problems. Max rate 120kw
  2. Electrical system drain Service required message

    Data is from the battery itself - I don’t have an external sensor. The battery has a Bluetooth enabled BMS that sends out the current readings.
  3. Electrical system drain Service required message

    Thanks for that - did not know that Will turn off automatic updates and just have the dealer do the updates at the 10K service interval. Appreciate the info!
  4. Electrical system drain Service required message

    The battery reports power draw. It goes > 10A. Battery drops to < 50% SOC after about 3 hours of this. Don’t believe the battery is causing the draw on the battery. Perhaps I don’t understand the physics here. I would lean toward there something wrong with the truck that causes it to start...
  5. Electrical system drain Service required message

    That is when I get the message as well. Plugged in, but not charging. When charging, the BMS keeps the battery topped off (positive current into battery). When done charging, it will start drawing from the battery (negative current) for a time and most times goes to zero or there about. Then...

    Updates are set for 1A. I try not to be awake at that time. Thanks for the reminder! Will be acutely aware of that moving forward
  7. Electrical system drain Service required message

    A weekly occurrence for me. I solved it by installing an Ohmmu battery and turning off the battery when I walk away from the truck. It has a Bluetooth connection for that. I don’t have any accessories plugged in at all.

  9. Frunk Problem and Incessant Beeping

    Today: Friday 13th…. Frunk Tamper alarm started going off around midnight - truck was parked and plugged in. I was fast asleep and did not see it until I got up for work about 3A. By that time battery was low enough that it shut itself off (Ommu). Did not know it had that capability. But...
  10. Home charging using 220v

    Teslas get about 2x the miles per KW than the F150. So your charging rate is the same between the Tesla and the Lightening. Your Tesla is gaining range at 2x the rate of the Lightning
  11. Cost for public charging: Tesla v. Electrify

    Some Tesla sites on the same I5 exit have different rates. Exit 88 in Rochester WA - new stations are $0.42, older stations are $0.38.
  12. 2023 battery updates discovered in service manual

    I’m interested in this manual. The web site lists the F150 but does not call out the Lightning specifically. Or am I missing it? it does call out the Mach e specifically.
  13. Ford Pro Charge Rates… Really.

    Math for this: 220V * 80A = 17,600 watts some efficiency lost in the conversion and mine says it is charging at 17.1 KW so let’s go with that. if you get 2 mile per KW (that’s close and makes the math easy), it is 17.1 * 2 = 34.2 miles per hour. if your charging a MME, it is limited by the...
  14. Would You Buy A Lightning Again?

    Definitely. Would have bought a second Lightning for the wife but she wanted a MME instead. Best vehicle I have owned. Not my first rodeo either. Turn 65 this year…

    Best vehicle I have ever owned hands down
