Detour this weekend into letting you know the app is recording in the background so it now has support for Notifications and Live Activities. The optional notifications allow your Apple watch or phone has connected to the scan tool and when a trip or charge starts - no need to visually check...

I'll start a new thread with the TestFlight details as soon as it is accepted. Right now plowing thru the last of the 'must have' features like database trip seeding so those without an OBDLink MX+ can run the UI if they wish to give it a try.

If only I could find where the GOM is located on the CAN bus, I have so many ideas on incorporating it in some analysises.☹️ I searched every address in the IPC module but couldn’t find it there. Anyone? App is really for entertainment purposes only but filtering by location would let you...

Short video running thru the charges view:

Wow, this could chew up a lot bandwidth but in a nutshell SwiftData uses classes and can only be used in views, I went with this as it uses structs and can be used anywhere (no views when a trip is recorded with the app in the background). Plus it supports CloudKit so you can run the app on...

I know nothing about Android development but I will make the GitHub repo public once it is in TestFlight. What you are dealing with is a SwiftUI app written in Swift with a few third-party packages that support using SQLite as the underlying database.

I few winters back I wrote a pair of iPhone apps to log trips and charges and while they worked they had limitations. My 2025-2026 winter project has been to update these apps to a single app that does it all and have none of the problems. Feature Old New Applications 2 1 (iOS, iPadOS)...

Thanks for the fast replies, pre-2024 VIN are the single code W1E code but I'll run with the newer codes for 2024 onward. Use is just for a friendly label so it doesn't matter if I get them wrong.

I have some software for the Lightning and I wish to properly label the various trims from the VIN model identifier field which are the characters in the 5-7 VIN position. For example, my 2024 Flash has a VIN with "W3L" in these positions which makes it an XLT trim. Just wondering what other...

It is the FordPass API and probably isn’t too hard to calculate from the EtE PID (Energy to Empty), maybe Ford just applies a correction factor based on the mean monthly temperature to estimate the range.? And the trip efficiency in kWh/mi is just the delta EtE divided by the distance travelled...

it is an iOS phone companion app for the Lightning and Mach-E so these aren’t useful suggestions. The GOM can’t predict the future so over the longer term. It is less accurate since it doesn’t know if it’s going to be cold and raining tomorrow, or if you’re going to be doing more climbing than...

Back with one more question. I looked through both the spreadsheets and ForSCAN looking for the module address to read the GOM/DTE (distance to empty) and came up blank (expecting it to be in the IPC as it is displayed there). Anyone know if this exists, and it yes, how does one access it...

Thanks, I switched to trying the primary CAN bus and it now works (Mach-E uses the secondary CAN bus for the IPC).

Se decided to play with some custom software on the Lightning that previously was used on the Mach-E and all the DIDs (vehicle, HVB, charging)I read using UDS service 0x22 Read Data by Identifer are the same except the precision odometer. On the Mach-E the hires odometer is found in the IPC...

From what I understand I hear you need an advanced degree to sort out a Georgia Power electric bill. In most places it is complicated, with my service, the delivery fees are slightly greater than the supply fees so quoting the cost of the energy without including the cost of the delivery and...

I would avoid any SC with a line, since Teslas like to not park next to one another, a legacy of V2 SCs, even a half full site has no CCS charging spots. And I doubt you get any likes for taking a spot and waiting. You did right to move to the EA but someday that won’t be an option and you will...

My thought as well.

The advantage is now, there was no advantage when you had four fuses and a 30A alternator. You may wish to deny the facts but there real advantages and 48V architectures are coming. Your car or tractor once ran on a 6V system, 12V proved to be better handling bigger loads so it took over. But...

I have a fairly smart home and don’t know where there are any DC runs except maybe POE, you got me on that problem. And modems, computers, LEDs and other electronics can accept any input voltage, sometimes an AC wall plug, sometimes a DC wall adapter. My point is you have DC-DC converters on...

Not sure I would agree, unless you are running some old school filament bulbs there isn’t much that works directly off the 12V supply without some sort of DC-DC conversion. The benefits of 48V in wiring harness are not only cost and weight reductions, but also the resistive losses are reduced...
