  1. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    In the next update the Speed and Efficiency items in the Trip details become buttons and clicking will open a map view that displays the trip path colored with the trip speed or with the regen segments of the trip. Short video walking thru these new features:
  2. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    I am pushing a new build with the two trip Live Activities that can be viewed on the Lock Screen or in CarPlay (you need to scroll thru the Live Activity stack to see each one). Still some work to be done on the 15-minute efficiency but I wanted to get it out there for comment. There is a lot...
  3. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    New build posted, no fancy graphs yet as I added support for Apple Push Notifications (APNs) which allow automatic starting of Live Activities in CarPlay and the lock screen without bringing Pankuzu to the foreground. Normally this requires the app to communicate with its server , non-existent...
  4. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Thanks, I'm happy you find it useful. Right now my head is into creating some interesting driving dashboards and exploring CarPlay. Normally I play with code in the winter months but I still tinker now that Apple gave me a CarPlay entitlement. But if you want to extract the data that has been...
  5. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Mach-Lee (in the Mach-E form) said: Rivan has this: So what sort of graph would the Lightning users like to see? Anyone that has observed the 5, 10, 15, and overall efficiency values know they can go negative if you start a trip with a downhill segment . My efficiencies are just the...
  6. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Just released a new build with CarPlay support but given the limitations of CarPlay templates it is a bit of a letdown for me. Sure there are some nice details about your current trip or charge but no charts or graphs of interesting vehicle data. All is not lost though. For those that have...
  7. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Will have a new build as soon as I can addd some data to the currently empty Trip tab. For now here is a short clip of Pankuzu running in the CarPlay simulator recording an AC Charge. Key points to see are: - scan tool is plugged in but not enabled - Settings tab opens the Scan Tool and enables...
  8. Upstate New Yorkers (Poughkeepsie north to Champlain), talk to me about efficiency, charging etc.

    Some upstate NY efficiency numbers for you, 72F climate control and still heating the steering wheel and seats as it has been a cold spring:
  9. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    A new rerelease is coming shortly, many changes coming and I don't want anyone to lose any trips or charges so please backup your database now and again before installing any new release. Now that I have a few months of collected trips and changes it is time start seeing some summaries. In the...
  10. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    So no crash reports, no screenshots, no feedback. Does anyone even use this software? Help me out here. I think it is time for a full screen trip dashboard with elements not available on the instrument panel. Like the lock screen Live Activity with its headwind indicator but bigger and better...
  11. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Getting ready to release build 2026.03.24 which will be the last March release as I am taking off till next week. Fixed anything reported and made some improvements. For those who use ABRP, this build supports using the ABRP telemetry API. Just get your API token from the ABRP app, visit...
  12. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Got an ABRP telemetry key today, now looking for a special someone (or two) that uses both ABRP and Pankuzu to double check my work before a wider release. I only need a few at this stage so if you like to help, send me a DM so I know you are interested.
  13. Pankuzu (Breadcrumbs): trip & charging data recording app for your F-150 Lightning

    Build 2026.03.15 goes live tonight, please review before installing it. Build 2026.03.15 Update ATTENTION 2026.03.3 USERS: Make a backup of your trips/charges before installing this build - Settings.Database, Backup - Install new build - Clear the database, Settings.Database, Clear Database -...
  14. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    I think this winter was an especially lousy one, you will likely see better results in future years.
  15. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    I have two Mach-Es in the mix so my fleet average is better but it was just a number picked for easy math. Also I wrote the app to know exactly how my Ford EVs perform. This was downhill, the return was 2.6 mi/kWh. Today, in freezing temps, the Lightning is averaging 1.9 mi/kWh over 4 trips:
  16. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    I hope I am wrong but seems like the production estimates might be high for Pittsburgh. Similar latitude to me in the NY Finder Lakes, similar weather too. Mine are ground mounted so perfect south direction and optimal pitch, roof determines these values and likely less than optimal. This Dec I...
  17. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    Not after you upgrade. Sanity check, 8000kWh times an estimated fleet average of 3 mi/kWh is 24,000 niles. That 8000kWh is measured at the panel, more like 7200kWh in the batteries after charging losses.
  18. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    Your utility tariff will matter here. My meter rolls backward when I export and forward when I draw from the grid. As long as I have kWh credits I don't pay for power drawn from the grid. Very sweet deal as I don't have to charge while the sun is shining. On the other hand if your utility...
  19. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    Well I have 25kWp of panels, no storage and produce roughly 26,000 kWh per year of energy with snow soiling, cloudy climate and shading. I break even with an all electric house, geothermal heat pump (7500kWh/yr), and a Lightning and two Mach-Es (8000kWh/yr). I think you are fine unless you add...
  20. Can my solar array support my future F150 Lighting driving habits?

    Bad math here. He will produce ~15kWh per hour around solar noon, maybe north of 100kWh per day in the summer time.
