Not necessarily—the generator’s role would be to maintain, not charge. In theory, if there’s no load, it could charge the battery, but I’d guess it would take quite a while to do so and is it necessary.
If you know exactly how they work, then share it with the rest of us. Last I checked, Ford hadn’t made any specific announcements, so how can anyone be right or wrong?
If I said it’s going to be diesel and not gas, I’m neither right nor wrong since no announcement has been made. It’s an...
I think people are overthinking this concept, it's basically going to be the exact same lightning except you have an onboard generator which has the sole purpose of charging the batteries. I'm making the assumption(maybe stupidly) that's it's going to be based on the same concept at the...
You're never running off the engine; it's strictly a generator. Your always running off the batteries
The engine-driven generator does produce horsepower but that power is converted into electricity, not sent mechanically to the drivetrain. Your entire drive train is going to be very similar...
Based on the lackluster Lightning sales, how can anyone say this is a bad idea? I know everyone here loves their truck on this board, but Mach-E sales have outpaced the Lightning by a fairly wide margin, which means the market right now for an all-electric truck isn’t looking great.
I don’t...
It’s virtually impossible, as most carriers use US gateways when you’re roaming outside the country, so even if the app shows you in, say, Germany, your IP address will still be in the US. It might also use a combination of GPS, IP, and car location, and if all three don’t match, it could flag a...
There all legitimate, Ford heavily uses aws for cloud api I believe along with google
34.149.193.215 - vehicle.api.mps.ford.com - Cloud communication
34.58.221.20 - www.cloud-sync.ford.com - Sync updates

Not true at all, pedestrians are 35% more likely to get hit by an EV than ICE. All major countries have the same requirement this is not specific to the US.
It is 100% against the law for a consumer to modify any auto safety equipment.
Define unreliable? I use an iphone and there is a delay sometimes when opening the door, it can take up to say 20-30 seconds for the phone to get recognized but it has never failed to work.
Apple removed the functionality to use Ipad as a homekit hub. You have to go with either appletv or homepod. Apple only indicated that they changed there architecture but didn't indicate what actually changed(shocking I know).
If you have an older IOS on yout ipad you may still get some...
You can either say siri open garage door "A" or "B" or "ALL".
I like the functionality that the garage door comes up automatically in carplay as you approach the house I just wish it didn't chose the garage door for you or just have both pop up. This is a funciton of carplay not Meross...
I have the msg100 and yes it works with siri and carplay to an extent. There is no meross app that will show up in carplay. If you add it in homekit the garage door will pop up when you get close to your house however it will only pop up the last used garage door on the summary screen so if...
We use the Autel maxicharger. It works fine, it split's the load with both cars are connected. When one vehicle is fully charged it sends the full load to the other.
