I have not fully tested mine but when I choose closest charger, it too defaults to 10 miles. Meanwhile the closest is 2.

Some update also took out the reserve from the app...see my past post quote...

Has anyone played around with the "search" setting for the type of charger? Does this make a difference? For example from the app, but also can be done in the truck.

The changes. I can now edit the name of target charge location in the app.

And the pro power now shows the frunk/cabin and bed outlets as separates when off, instead of a single statement item. Also it shows what I have the reserve set at. Before that did not exist.

The problem really seems to be hit or miss as I used the feature last week and it seemed to work fine. But this week is a different story. BTW, though it shouldn't make any difference, the 12v battery was fully charged as I keep it on a battery maintainer when I'm not actually driving it.
I really need this feature to work!....I can't be running out there to reset everything every 30-60 mins.

All I can say for sure is that I have slept many nights with the PPOB powering my CPAP machine (which draws only a few watts) either by leaving the truck on (disable the powerdown), or using a short interval timer and 100 watt heater. Never had PPOB shut down on me. I have also regularly left PPOB on powering a battery charger / power supply that is powering some radio equipment.
This is on a 2024 Flash which always have had the ability to leave PPOB turned on with the truck turned off.

Have you had a light load on the bed outlets when PPOB has incorrectly shut down? I am wondering if software for the 24 version of Pro Power which has a light power load auto off feature may have been loaded.
