  1. NHTSA recalls Lectron NACS Adapter

    I got so sick of waiting for Lectron to actually ship I cancelled my order, the next day I had my refund, the day after that Ford shipped my free adapter. I consider myself the luckiest man alive.
  2. Tesla fires whole Supercharger team [Update: Musk says supercharger growth will continue]

    I have used it twice before in Wilmington. I need to test it again to make sure something isn't wrong with it now. The most frustrating part is there is absolutely no way to know where the issue is since superchargers don't give you any kind of information.
  3. Tesla fires whole Supercharger team [Update: Musk says supercharger growth will continue]

    OBX Mall is the only V3 there is another in Kitty Hawk or Kill Devil Hills but it is V2, so we can't use it.
  4. Update: F-150 Lightning Fast Charging Tesla Adapters Start Shipping TODAY Per Ford!

    With delays has there been any speculation of a quality issue? Anyone seen a teardown video to see exactly what is inside. I assume not much other than wires but I would like to see without taking mine apart.
  5. Tesla fires whole Supercharger team [Update: Musk says supercharger growth will continue]

    I was on the NC Outer Banks Sunday. Only DCFC is Tesla, since I had my adapter I decided to take the Lightning. I tried 6 different stalls, plug and charge, activating with Fordpass, activating with Tesla. Nothing would work. I had to drive an pray to a recently opened Freewire charger in...
  6. Comma AI self driver assistant

    I've had the Comma 3x the whole time I've had my Lightning and have been using Comma for years at this point. With the Lightning you do get errors when everything is connected but the unit is not booted up. It really is just an annoyance more than anything else.
  7. I got it 🙌 [A2Z adapter], have you?

    I have no doubt that it will. I just sent Lectron an email requesting a refund noting that the delays and dishonesty were unacceptable. I'm number 213 from Ford so at this point I will just wait.
  8. Ford to Offer Complimentary Tesla Supercharger Adapter to Eligible Lightning Owners (1/31/24 Update)

    I ordered the Lectron. I'm not cancelling it unless I have the Ford one in hand. Obviously, I will take the free one as well.
  9. TESLA Adapters for our Lightnings - Coming When?

    I pre-ordered the Lectron a while ago. Some risk but what is $200 between friends?
  10. TESLA Adapters for our Lightnings - Coming When?

    Sure, they listed it but they don't yet know how long it will be or how much power it will handle. I hope they make something practical but something that can handle 400amps and also roll up to put under your back seat doesn't seem realistic.
  11. TESLA Adapters for our Lightnings - Coming When?

    Very very unlikely we see any kind of extension. The chargers push around 400 amps so they either have to have massive cables or actively cooled cables.
  12. TESLA Adapters for our Lightnings - Coming When?

    Tesla doesn't NEED to work with any other manufacturer to open up Supercharger access. Tesla V3 and V4 Superchargers already support CCS so a simple software change and physical adapter means any car that could activate the charger could charge. What sort of behind the scenes agreements they...
  13. Ford Software Requests for 2024

    Speaking of that how about a freaking charge limit. Not a one time charge limit, not a location based charge limit, a charge limit. You want me to only charge to 90% unless I need more immediately but make it impossible to set the truck to do that. 0 out of 10, bad setup. Edit: I replied to the...
  14. Just took a 450 intersate road trip in a standard range lightning. Never again

    What were temps like? I can easily do 450 miles on 2 stops on I-95 if it is above freezing. Usually run around 70mph. This is assuming the stops are spaced well which they usually aren't and I usually don't get the speed I'm supposed to when I stop to charge. I think this is why Tesla chargers...
  15. NACS to CCS adapters to ship in January

    I know that Tesla has been only putting Magic Docks where they get government incentives that require CCS. I'm not aware of them getting anything for opening up stations for use with your own adapter. I believe that the federal government is in the process of changing the rules so that CCS isn't...
  16. 2023 F150 Lightning Standard Range charging curve

    Seems like if I plug in at 60% SOC or below I can always get about 22 or 23% in 10 minutes. 170-175kw as long as the truck and charger are both having a good day.
  17. Density of Lightnings in your area...

    Relatively small town on eastern NC. Never saw a Lightning in town until the day I bought one. I swear someone else a few blocks away got one the same day. Made me happy and sad at the same time.
  18. Lariat $7500 Retail Incentive, Is it gone?

    I wouldn't buy a truck for $7,500 more than someone paid yesterday. So if that is how you feel you have to walk away.
