It’s really unfit for purpose, Jim. We have off grid water and septic, and I run a business from home… Sigh.

It tries - the app thinks it's initiating, but it never completes.

No, it does go white, and then go off - but doesn't matter how many times I try to reset it, it doesn't work any more. It *was* working for about two months.

Yeah, it's slightly different. I never get to green lights on the truck :(

Well, mine is screwed again. I've been working with a contact at Ford to try and get ourselves working. It says "Getting ready to transfer Power" -then it shows the 0 of 9.8 kW on screen, and the truck makes lots of noises, but never actually locks the pins. The only thing I can think of is...

Nope… because… Got A Juice Box Charging Station? There's Hope - And We Have PROOF!

Couple of thoughts. 1) remove it. This is quick and you get the plug for the wiring system when you buy the truck. 2) you can always move the load back a bit. I carried a mower and a Vectrix over decent distances (in separate trips) I kept something over the tailgate bit in both cases could...

Ah yes, figures!

They've fixed the double email - that was an error. And you can't edit the email because CR is writing it.

An update! We've just finished a livestream with Nate from Juice-Rescue, and Stacey Higginbotham from Consumer Reports. You can see the livestream here: Consumer Reports has opened up a Google Form for interested parties who would like to co-sign the letter to the FTC on the matter...

Glad to be of help! Without divulging my actual address (because, hey, this is the internet and people aren't always that nice) - I'm in an area with absolutely abysmal cellphone reception (foothills of the Coast Range) so I usually manually check once or twice a month. I would *love* to know...

Yesterday, I did ANOTHER test of our HIS. Prior to this most recent round of updates, I had to park my Truck off to one side on some gravel next to our driveway, skewed at 45 degrees to our Chicken coop so that the HIS would actually talk to the truck. However, yesterday, I was able to plug...

That’s a stuck relay. The alarm is to warn you that the relay has failed in an unsafe position (it happens from time to time). 1) Unplug it (or turn the breaker off) 2)Perform “Percussive maintenance” on it. It usually works best for me with a closed fist bashed on the front part of the case...

Update: I’ve just tried our first HIS simulated power cut since we got the 6.14 update to our truck, a new FCSP with 2.112.91:2.149:1.32:1.53:0.62 software, and the newest inverter software (revision 1. if memory serves?) Currently pulling between 4 kW and 8.9 kW with no power variations...

Just got the 6.14 update, and recently got a new CSP (which I've got updated today with the latest software). Can't wait to do a simulated test ;) I can confirm that you can run the HIS AND pro Power onboard (at least, I've done that in the past)

Should be fixed now! I suck at Discord, but our mods have fixed it ;) I just tried it out, and it seems like it's not quite ready for prime time yet - I couldn't see any way to officially add our working JuiceBox to it - and had trouble registering.

For what it's worth, we're working on putting new hardware inside the old units - but I'm also open to people who have the brains to write new firmware to give us access to stock units. We've made a discord chat room as part of our Transport Evolved chat here: https://discord.gg/zMvjCNSn4H

Clearly we need to steal the infinity stone….

The hardware was great. The forced upgrade? Not so much. Either way, be careful about schadenfreude… it can bite you in the butt ;)

For what it's worth, we're working on swapping ours out with open-source innards. I've got the parts sitting on my desk, but need some spare time (and a little more money) to finish and get it ready for review.
