  1. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Getting ready to release build 2026.03.24 which will be the last March release as I am taking off till next week. Fixed anything reported and made some improvements. For those who use ABRP, this build supports using the ABRP telemetry API. Just get your API token from the ABRP app, visit...
  2. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Got an ABRP telemetry key today, now looking for a special someone (or two) that uses both ABRP and Pankuzu to double check my work before a wider release. I only need a few at this stage so if you like to help, send me a DM so I know you are interested.

  4. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    I think this winter was an especially lousy one, you will likely see better results in future years.
  5. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    I have two Mach-Es in the mix so my fleet average is better but it was just a number picked for easy math. Also I wrote the app to know exactly how my Ford EVs perform. This was downhill, the return was 2.6 mi/kWh. Today, in freezing temps, the Lightning is averaging 1.9 mi/kWh over 4 trips:
  6. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    I hope I am wrong but seems like the production estimates might be high for Pittsburgh. Similar latitude to me in the NY Finder Lakes, similar weather too. Mine are ground mounted so perfect south direction and optimal pitch, roof determines these values and likely less than optimal. This Dec I...
  7. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    Not after you upgrade. Sanity check, 8000kWh times an estimated fleet average of 3 mi/kWh is 24,000 niles. That 8000kWh is measured at the panel, more like 7200kWh in the batteries after charging losses.
  8. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    Your utility tariff will matter here. My meter rolls backward when I export and forward when I draw from the grid. As long as I have kWh credits I don't pay for power drawn from the grid. Very sweet deal as I don't have to charge while the sun is shining. On the other hand if your utility...
  9. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    Well I have 25kWp of panels, no storage and produce roughly 26,000 kWh per year of energy with snow soiling, cloudy climate and shading. I break even with an all electric house, geothermal heat pump (7500kWh/yr), and a Lightning and two Mach-Es (8000kWh/yr). I think you are fine unless you add...
  10. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    Bad math here. He will produce ~15kWh per hour around solar noon, maybe north of 100kWh per day in the summer time.
  11. LightningROD - Self-hosted charging analytics

    Very easy to do, documented here. But L2 charging ties up a device for many hours which is why I added the ability to edit a charge and copy the duration, final SoC, and energy added from the Ford app. Now I can grab the start of the charge and log the time, location, charge type, odometer...
  12. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    I checked the TestFlight stats and all 57 installs are on iOS26. While I am always on the newest IOS the idea is that this should run on your old device that just stays in the vehicle so download and try it, you don’t need the scan tool to try it out.
  13. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    I doubt it, something I added but don’t use since I don’t have a phone holder in the vehicles. Maybe some sort of regression but there Is a Live Activities filter control for the log you can turn on and see if it is throwing any errors.
  14. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Sorry but OBDLink MX+ is required. Would love to hear if any has an OBDLink LX as it looks like it should work and is less expensive but it lacks support for the Ford MSCAN bus. I currently don’t pull any data from the MSCAN bus but you could miss out on future features requiring modules that...
  15. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Good luck with the splitter, two options for a live dashboard with Pankuzu. Trips and charges update so if open a trip in progress you can it’s details. The lock screen has a Live Activity that shows some basic info including your headwind/tailwind status. And it can sync to iCloud so you can...
  16. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Seems simple enough, I’ll add to the feature to-do list.
  17. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Traffic volume? The OBDII CAN buses have no traffic unless requested by the scan tool, so about 10 messages per second is what I typically see.
  18. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    I have run a Raspberry Pi4 with a CAN bus hat and the MX+ on a splitter but only in a CAN bus sniffing mode where the MX+ does all the heavy lifting and the PI4 just logged the bus traffic. If ABRP has an API to report SoC and have it update in the app then it can go on some sort of to-do list.
