Does anybody know how many modules make up the battery pack of an extended range lightning? I know for a fact there are nine modules in the standard range

9 modules in both, the modules just contain different number of cells depending on SR vs ER

Thanks for the info. I was looking inside my battery pack with a service tech yesterday and he said I had an extended range because there were nine modules. I have a standard range so I was wondering if Ford was limiting with software or if the capacity of the modules were actually different

Fewer cells in the same size modules? From the Munro tear down I don't understand how that is possible? Can you help me understand?

They are certainly different packs with substantially different weights. They are not using software to limit your range.

Just to update this thread, we know now that the number of modules for a SR, standard range, is only 6; the ER has 9.
Sorry, i am wrong, SR has 9 small modules, ER has 1 small and 8 large; both have 96 "cells", however the each "cell" is made up of parallel cell pouches. The SR has 4 cell pouches in parallel, while the ER uses 5 cell pouches in parallel.

see this September, 2024 thread on counting up the cells in the modules:
