  1. What is the best app for planning a road trip?

    This is a lot of toil. Go to PlugShare, cross reference with star charts, do the Hokey Pokey and get totally friggen fed up with EV’s. Save yourself the toil and extra expense for app subscriptions (looking at you ABRP). First for the least amount of toil with broken or non-existent chargers...
  2. It was worth the wait!

    I have a 23 Lariat in the Rapid Red color as well. It has been a fantastic looking and driving truck. BTW the pigment used to make the red is the same base pigment that is used in the brilliant Mazda red. I know one of the chemists who had the project to create this pigment. He always remarks...
  3. Ford Nav is better than ever!

    Having played with the newest version I can say from my limited access that it is the gold standard of EV routing. You can specify that you have a NACS connector and also put your preferred network in. The outcome is that you can have the truck route to Superchargers only (if you wish), and it...
  4. How to precondition the battery for fast charging when your complementary advanced navigation has expired and in motion?

    For those using Android Auto and Google Maps. In the latest Google Maps update, they broke mileage to next stop indicator in the IPC. They also broke preconditioning. If you see 0.0 for mileage to your next stop, then this is a bug. Report this to Google so they can get more eyes on the issue.
  5. My Lightning burned to the ground

    Just look at the previous post, post 66. That has links to where the OP stated they were running a Ohmmu battery and were having issues. The OP had an Ohmmu battery in their truck, and should NOT be blamed for what happened. Ohmmu states and many trust that their batteries are compatible with...
  6. My Lightning burned to the ground

    Right. I know. I have one of these and use it to maintain. I was replying to someone else who stated you can’t force charge these batteries. I guess can’t should have been changed to shouldn’t.
  7. My Lightning burned to the ground

    Tesla also moved to Li-Ion LVB in their Model Y and Model 3 I think starting with HW4 but maybe earlier. We had one in our 2023. It was no maintenance and the couple of years people had them, they were relatively problem free.
  8. My Lightning burned to the ground

    There may be method to the madness of going high then low voltage. This would help to desulfate the battery. Many chargers/minders have a repair mode that does just this. I would never do that to a LiFePO4 battery. I don’t trust their BMS to handle it. So Ford engineers who are actually really...
  9. My Lightning burned to the ground

    You can do this with a n.co genius charger. The Ohmmu batteries have a BMS that doesn’t register as needing charged by many trickle chargers with current sensing. So they implemented a force feature that will output charge regardless of readings from the battery. In order to charge an Ohmmu...
  10. My Lightning burned to the ground

    I just needed to replace my LVB and was considering one of these but canceled my order last week and got the OEM one from my dealer. Just charged it up, installed it, and reset BMS this morning. Reading this thread, I am so glad I didn’t go with OHMMU. Also I can rest a little easier knowing it...
  11. My Lightning burned to the ground

    Did you have anything out of the ordinary going on up front? Did you have a stock LVB or an aftermarket LiFePO4 one?
  12. My Lightning burned to the ground

    I have the same year, same trim, but different color, not that color matters. Any mods to the vehicle, like replacing the LVB with a LiFePO4 one from Ohmmu?
  13. Need accurate height measurement for 2025 Flash

    Something that may help if you test drive one to where you want to test the height; the antenna is meant to be a canary in a coal mine. It is slightly taller than the top. If it hits then you know the cab won’t fit.
  14. 25C69 Recall - Ford Recalls 2022-2026 F-150 Lightning Over Rollaway Risk

    I noticed I had module firmware available for SOBDMC a week ago and I completed that update via FDRS. I don’t show any new updates in PTS but I guess new month, I should check this morning. I wonder if I now have to have my dealer close the campaign in OASIS for me.
  15. Lightning Software Updates using FDRS

    I just checked PTS for my 23. No bueno. Back to waiting for Ford to integrate NACS superchargers into the factory nav. With the latest Google Maps breaking its integration with the IPS and preconditioning there is really no current solution for routing with preconditioning when using Tesla...
  16. Lightning Software Updates using FDRS

    Could this be the fabled APIM update that ads the NACS superchargers to the nav interface?
  17. PTS Payment for Subscription is Broken

    Looks like they realized today. The site has this now:
  18. Need a favor from 2024 or newer Canadian Lightning owner

    Helps greatly and is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much!
  19. Need a favor from 2024 or newer Canadian Lightning owner

    I will have to grab a pic. I never turn on the regular high beams since enabling the glare free (matrix) lighting. The pic is all I get. I believe if I manually turn on the high beams it shows a blue telltale above that line (also kind of out of place).
  20. Need a favor from 2024 or newer Canadian Lightning owner

    Odd request, but would anyone with a Canadian 2024 or 2025 mind taking a picture of the drivers display with your headlights set to glare free and on auto at night. In short I am trying to see the layout of the telltales for it. On my 2023 where I enabled glare free and updated the IPC firmware...
