There is no "wasted" energy by charging to 100%

If you use the "120v" plug end but give it 240v it provides 240v at 12a.

Similar to Android Auto there are apps like water, Spotify, etc. Personally I would like a good data display app with direct integration into the sensors. Having something to display 5, 10, 15 minute efficiency averages, heater power usage, etc would be nice

See a couple posts down by @GoodSam https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/bad-battery-module.24376/

I believe it is 5% only over 80%. When setting the max charge percent make sure to watch until the progress bar at the top stops moving.

You can also buy the ford controller (and module) and add it if you want the fully integrated factory system. About $250 iirc and then it integrates with the center screen and you trailer settings. IMO anything above a few thousand pounds should be using a brake controller. A quick google says...

Reddit has a consolidated thread on this. Looks like the left engine completely separated from the airplane during takeoff.

Pack batteries should have internal balancing so over time the cells will balance even if not charging to 100%. I don't know the specific details for the Lightning but on other systems I have seen the balancing current is quite low. Maybe this is one of those tech things Brian @Ford Motor...

Thats right. They moved the brake controller to max tow. I dont think hill descent control has anything to do with towing though.

I think its pretty safe to say that most of us dont have our trucks at home for 24 hours a day

Finally putting together a few things i wanted to have. The bronco hood handles/hooks have always appealed to me, so I designed a similar concept for the lightning. These are made out of Carbon Fiber infused ASA. I also wanted a slightly different design for the rear air diffusers. These...

I wouldn't think of it as keeping the battery cooler, it would think of it as more power to cool the battery if it gets too hot. Having monitored high speed charging i dont think the regular trucks are cooling limited there. And same with regular driving. Regular towing big wide trailers up...

What happens is the charger slows down massively as it balances the cells. In fact your comment about those last few electrons running around looking for spots is actually very correct. When its near full many of the cells are charged full, so now its charging just the cells that are lower...

I have mapped a few dozen trips just to test efficiency, time, and speed. In the end more speed equals arriving there sooner, even up to about 90mph. Yes, you do charge more, and you do use more energy, however you still get there sooner. Op, Tire pressure does not make much difference at all...

Fwiw I have BLIS and cross traffic alert/assist.

I can grab my FORSCAN files if needed, I have this feature on my 23. edit: Attached, rename extension from txt to abt. Two files, one is the very first from late 2024 when I first received FORSCAN, no changes made. The later one is my most recent backup.

I live in Ohio so 100f in the summer is on the high end and 0f in the winter is on the low end. Not unusual for 30f mornings and 70f days. Winters here are not as cold as when I lived in Minnesota, but it does get cold and cold enough for windshield issues. Fwiw I know WXman lives south of me...

I'll look into it again, its been a while. I see what you are saying so I'll have to go back and do it again.

I understand what you are saying eith regard to speed but I don't think it is a good metric here due to the immense variation in efficiencies that can happen. We have a general sense of how efficiency and speed related but it does have immense variation. Specifically weight, temp, weather, and...

Well. Thats my point. Mine works fine and I have enough OCD to get upset at those things
