  1. Cost to fill up your Lightning?

    I have it GREAT for home charging here in Texas because we put in a big 15 kW ground mounted solar array 10 yrs ago to fully power our all electric home which paid for itself two years ago. When buying my 2022 Lightning I added another 7 kW to our array DIY for cheap so that we produce enough...
  2. Anyone getting Concerned that Ford is not in on EV for the long haul

    Texan here: bought my 1st generation 2022 Lightning for its bidirectional battery. Having Sunrun install the Home Integration System (HIS) six weeks later to integrate the truck battery into our all electric home & solar to hopefully be able to power everything if another winter storm Uri hits...
  3. ECG-24.2.4.10 Enhanced Stability

    I saw this on my app ~ 6 weeks ago, contacted my dealer and had it replaced the following week. "It could be a three day job", proved correct - zero cost (on all service/recall so far). They even picked-up, dropping off a free rental (f250 power stroke diesel), and delivering to my work door: a...
  4. Nation's First F-150 Lightning Vehicle-To-Home Grid Support Successful (Operated by Sunrun)

    i bought my 22 Lightning for it’s V2H capability using a Sunrun HIS, installed February ‘23. It worked perfectly until Feb ‘24 Ford Pass update which removed my Pro Charger from the truck disabling the HIS until early June allowed me to reconnect my Pro to the truck. It’s a three day process...
  5. Notice from Ford today..."New Ford Intelligent Backup Power experience"

    I purchased my 2022 Lightning specifically for its bidirectional battery to use the HIS for our all-electric, solar powered home when the TX grid drops. I had Sunrun install the HIS ($9k including hardware) 2 months after finding my Lariat SR at my local dealer. The system worked exactly as...

  7. Inability to add pre-existing PV array to the Ford Home Integration System

    Thanks, I have been following Enphase & the IQ8 for it's ability to act as both "sunlight backup", I'll look into it's EV support... and find an expert installer who listens to it's customer. Sunrun didn't listen to me
  8. Inability to add pre-existing PV array to the Ford Home Integration System

    I'm just digging into this but it seems micro inverter panels are incompatible & straight DC seems to be required. "Experts" at Sunrun & Ford must be aware of this and should have been honest and forthcoming. Why they didn't is confusing. Since this is new and emerging technology, I expect to...
  9. Inability to add pre-existing PV array to the Ford Home Integration System

    Thanks for some good news on this issue. Our 9 year old 15kw PV array uses 63 individual Enphase 210 microinverters on 240w panels (both manufactured in 2013) so that each panel's DC power is converted to AC at each panel to then join together into one feeder line/60 amp breaker to feed AC...

    All electric 3100 sq/ft N Texas homeowner here, on a well with two HVACs and a pool. We own a 15.2 kW ground mounted Solar Array (installed in 2014 - 63 panels with microprocessors which produces ~60% of our power). We have wanted battery back-up since the Feb '21 Texas freeze/near grid...
