But there is no “free lunch”. Just optimized to reduce equipment size. We did similar liquid injection 30 years ago in chemical plants. With 15,000 bhp motor driven screw compressors. It works. The question always was how to simplify and keep capital costs down.

You can dial the FCSP down and use a lower amp circuit breaker with thinner wire. Be sure to use the lower amp breaker to eliminate potential for problems.

I have a 30 year old Craftsman combination lift and jack stand. Unfortunately, it’s only rated for 2 tons. But the Jack is integral with the lift and ratchets up as you raise the vehicle. A release on the lift handle locks the jack stand in place under the vehicle. Repeat for all 4 corners. I...

Drive it. Enjoy it. Charge it when you want to. Nothing lasts forever.

Made a large loop yesterday from Pittsburgh to MD & NoVa then home. Charged at EA Hagerstown and EA Bedford. No waiting, no problems except getting sandwiches at Sheetz took forever.

If you have doubts, walk away.

EA in Erie. Tell ABRP you’re leaving Cleveland w 60% SOC. Then plan.

From their website While the SOLIS cover is capable of charging any electric vehicle (EV), it's important to note that Worksport has not yet developed an adaptor to plug directly into your specific EV model. The process of connecting the SOLIS cover directly to an EV requires review and...

The 80 amp charger required 100 amp circuit breaker. But 80 amps is way more than needed. But you don’t know that at the time. Roads here in western PA are not conducive to good gas mileage. The hills are steep and winding. The 16.5 mpg is indicative of my driving style and road conditions. I...

My home charger was free from Ford and cost me $400 for a licensed electrician to install with 100 amp 240 breaker and wire. Grossly overkill. I could have gotten by with 60 amp circuit, lower power charger and installed myself. My 2015 F150 Lariat crew with ecoboost got 16.5 mpg. Local regular...

That’s one of the reasons (minor) I keep my supercharged ‘04 CTSV that gets 9 mpg putting out 575 bhp. But I don’t pass many gas stations with it. The perfect has always been the biggest enemy of the good.

Thank you for contacting Ford Motor Company. We are happy to provide information on your part. The part number XXXXXXXXX is compatible with your 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning Lariat. It is also the right weight rating for this vehicle. If you have any additional questions, our Ford Parts team is...

I use ICE F150 wheels for my winter tires. The wheels have a model number stamped on the inner surface. I contacted Ford customer service about suitability for Lightning. I received an email that verified that they are acceptable. You should do the same.

Would need mighty small fingers. About toddler size if the toddler was aware enough to pull the lock button up. But two pulls of the inside handle should work.

Always check the Users Manual first

There should be Remote Controlled Circuit Breakers available from electrical supply houses near you. I don’t believe a unit rated 240 v 100 amp will be cheap. But will be available sooner than waiting for Siemens to reprogram FCSP.

My adapter (5961) arrived earlier this week. Finally had a chance to try it out. Could not use charger directly in front but charger to left was open and I used it. P&C worked well. I paid Tesla non-subscription rate as show on Tesla site. Ford charged by CC and sent an email. Ford Pass tracked...

Mine came by FedEx today. Order 5961 on Feb 29.

Talking of old stuff. Running FORTRAN from dual 8 inch floppy discs of 1.1 MB (yep MB) each to calculate PID tuning constants. Uphill. Both ways. In the snow.

“We shipped your adapter” email received. FedEx says Monday 6/17 before 8 pm.
