Installed an Emporia EVSE unit almost 2 years ago. Length of run can be a consideration, but 6 AWG was what came out of information from NEC. When the Emporia arrived, it also stated that 6 AWG should be installed (implied even for shorter runs). This was for 40 amp charging on a 50 amp...

Another factor in cold weather (more apparent below about 20F) that I have noticed and tried to measure is an effective decrease in available battery capacity by at least several kWh. Preconditioning helps, but on longer drives I still notice it. I am sure there is a DC fast charger along the...

Thank you for the update; that is good information. Leaning a bit more in that direction...

I have been researching tires that would make good "all arounders", realizing that is not really a thing, especially for icy conditions. The tire to be replaced is an Arroyo Eco Pro H/T which has worn half of its tread depth (currently about 5/32 from 11/32) in 17,000 miles (they were cheap...

It might be worth computing [edit for clarity] (the "mi/kWh) efficiency: miles driven per month and divide by the reported Emporia kWh sent to get miles/kWh and then compare to what the dashboard efficiency is for the month (again, assuming that number is correct...). May try this comparison...

Interesting... I do not (yet) have an OBD scanner, but comparing charge logs between what the Ford Pass app has said was "received" and what the Emporia EVSE app reports as "sent" to the battery, charging losses of around 7% were being indicated. I haven't monitored this lately, but in my...

I have been a forum reader here since late 2021, and the knowledge and enthusiasm that is shared really helps make the ownership experience even better! (...and the pre-ownership waiting experience before being able to get the truck more tantalizing, lol!).

It appears that the Tesla chargers (V3 and up) will not all be available for Ford users at once, but rather have a staggered activation (for days or weeks?). Source: Out of Spec Reviews video posted today ().

Thank you, that clears it up!

This morning I logged onto the Ford website in an attempt to reserve the NACS adapter (didn't succeed due to heavy volume). While logged into my account, I navigated to the page shown below which designates a "charge level". It says 91%; I don't know if I have yet ever had the truck at a 90%...

Great to see these data presented. Very helpful for summer travel; the numbers appear to be similar to those expected during warm weather and drier roads (also, the publication date leans this direction!). Have been (piecemeal) trying to gather data from the truck at different temperature...

Well-said. I really prefer having the numbers and had a much better feel for real-time energy consumption on that vehicle (which, ironically, had an almost identical EPA range of ~239 miles as the SR Lightning). Ditto on having a 'high', 'middle', and 'low' estimate for the guesstimated...

If making a wish, it would be for a real-time battery usage display; i.e. the kilowatts being used (or replenished). My first generation Bolt had this, which was great for computing scenarios in my head and not feeling so reliant on the GOM. It also functioned to show me the charge rate in the...
