  1. Ford pro charger solenoid is clicking on and off every 10 seconds. Anyone have this happen?

    FWIW, this same thing happens using a Tesla Universal Wall Connector. Seemingly random. At least the solenoid is quieter than the FCSP.
  2. What ever happened to customer service

    Service continues to be the least satisfying aspect of ownership. I am on my second local dealership and in both instances, staff there seem to be skeptical of EVs to say the least. I have to imagine that this negative perspective on EVs affects how they treat EV customers and their vehicles...
  3. Ford pro charger solenoid is clicking on and off every 10 seconds. Anyone have this happen?

    I've had a similar experience. No rhyme or reason that I can tell. I've since switched to the Tesla Universal Wall Connector. I haven't noticed the issue since, but I think the Tesla's solenoid is quieter, so I may not notice if it it happens. Secondly, I'm pretty sure the vehicle causes it...
  4. Dear Ford, you've lost your mind

    Any chance comma.ai can work with a Lightning and give something closer to FSD?
  5. Home Assistant - Ford F150 Lightning Dashboard.

    Perfect. The discrepancy in the factor was because of rounding in the Ford App. Thank you!
  6. Home Assistant - Ford F150 Lightning Dashboard.

    Regarding tire pressure, the sensor data in Home Assistant indicates a value about 7x higher than the PSI indicated in the Ford Pass app. The factor is not consistent, ranging from 6.8-7.0x higher. How are you handling this?
  7. 40A home charging - Should I do it

    It's all about how far you drive in an average day and how much time you have to charge if you're under a Time Of Use rate regime.
  8. Home Assistant - Ford F150 Lightning Dashboard.

    Sounds right. I followed this video's instructions on adding the custom sensors config include file:

  11. FYI: Tesla Universal Wall Connector Now Shipping

    I installed my Tesla Universal Wall Connector yesterday but the included J1772 adapter does not work. The LED on the Tesla UWC is green when plugging into a non-Tesla vehicle. The Lightning instrument cluster shows that it is plugged in but "Charging station not detected." I tried with a Bolt...
  12. Level 2 from home.

    Just digging in deeper on the NEC/switch comment. Sorry for the tangent.
  13. Level 2 from home.

    Tesla's Wall Connector doesn't have a hardware switch. It is a software switch buried in the configuration screen when connected to the device via wifi. I'm curious how this meets NEC. Perhaps because the page isn't readily accessible by end users?
  14. Charging Lightning ER on 50A Circuit with L2 Charger

    100%. The 60amp breaker supports up to 4 AWG and same with the Tesla Universal Wall Connector. Hence, replacing the 2AWG.
  15. Charging Lightning ER on 50A Circuit with L2 Charger

    Hit me up if you want me FCSP. I already have my replacement Tesla universal wall connector ready to install.
  16. Charging Lightning ER on 50A Circuit with L2 Charger

    I'm using 2AWG on my FCSP. I'm swapping this out for 4 or 6 AWG for the Tesla Universal Connector. The reason for the switch isn't to "use the whole charge window." I'm switching because I prefer the Tesla charger since the FCSP doesn't reliably charge my Tesla and I don't need 80amps of charge...
  17. Charging Lightning ER on 50A Circuit with L2 Charger

    There's another 10% charging loss to factor in addition to what I had in my table?
  18. Charging Lightning ER on 50A Circuit with L2 Charger

    How I figure it: I would ensure you can recharge your daily driving needs within the cheapest time of use your utility provider has. I'm in San Diego where my cheapest charge period is midnight to 6a. This provides me 6 hours to charge each day. If I'm driving no more than 60 miles each...
  19. Tailgate won’t come down. Any suggestions
