I returned a Tesla 3 loaner because it tried to kill me five times in ten days. My Lightning's blue cruse seems way more safe because it never yanked the steering wheel out of my hands when the computer disagrees or gets confused.

Yes, Im trying to avoid a lawsuit at all cost.

********************* 02/09/24 UPDATE (36 days from incident) ******************* THANK YOU, EVERYONE; your replies with ideas and recommendations are very much appreciated. In summary, it appears there are three options to move forward: Just to recap, the vehicle the Ford dealership damaged...

Do you know how to go about a full replacement ? USAA wants to fix it now. Should I hold off with repairs?

I took my Lightning F-150 Lightning (Platinum) to the local Ford dealership for a 20k-mile service. This service called for a tire rotation and cabinet air filter swap. Five days later, I got a call. The service adviser told me my truck sustained body damage. During a "quality assurance test...

I’m sure Ford analysts know the fiscal relationship between sales volume and unit pricing. The more you make, the cheaper the per unit production cost. With $ mind, this is Ford sending a loud message to preserve the status quo of high pricing of EVs due to high transition cost, limited...

You might actually have an over voltage issue. Often times line voltage during full sun radiation at your residences main can exceed 250 volts. This is due to impedance dynamics from your power line, local transformer and neighbors sharing the same transformer tap. If your level two charger...

To mitigate the issue of your A/C motors overdrawing during startup (inrush current during magnetic field buildup) you can install soft starters. https://enphase.com/store/accessories/accessories-storage/soft-starters Putting these on your A/C motors will also extend the service life overall...

You could potentially parallel L1 of the front inverter with L1 or L2 of the rear inverter as long as you bond the neutrals. The rear inverter puts out a single split phase (180 degree offset sinus wave), the forward inverter only has L1. Again, your gonna first need to ensure both inverters...

Run two Duramax ih9000’s in parallel and you can charge a full 40 amps with a 75 % load on the generators… Works great.

There is a high probability the charger is defective due to the addressed quality concerns by other in this threat. Or: The charger de-rates itself by lowering the charge current if the line voltage drops. In a/c theory, resistance is called impedance. When EV chargers detect dropping or...

If you know what you are doing you could explore the option of paralleling the two inverters. This would only work if they work “in step” with one another. You would have to measure if they are in step or not.

No issue pulling 40 amps running in parallel on gasoline. Having the ability to de-rate your charge current is great because it gives you flexibility and redundancy. If for example, a generator goes down or you’re pulling power from a 50amp camp ground outlet backed by a 30 am breaker your not...

The ih9000 is already bonded.

This is one of the few if not the only portable-sized and fully adjustable Level 2 charger. This one lets you adjust the charge current from 6-40 amps in 1amp increments. This is important so that you can match the impedance of your generator to an about 75% power load when charging the truck.

the best I found: two in parallel Duromax ih9000. they run on gasoline or propane and I moded them to also run on low pressure natural gas.

Heat pumps rely on ambient heat. They do not work well at ambient temperatures below 35 degrees Fahrenheit. If the ambient temperature is below freezing, running a heat pump is not going to keep you warm.

This could absolutely never happen to a non-electric vehicle! You’re right, definitely return it!

Parallel two inverter generators to charge at 40 amps. Video shows combination of a non parallel capable inverter generator with a parallel capable inverter generator. Both are running on Propane.
