I'd personally buy the Ford adapter, it's an improved version of the Lectron, and IMO worth the short wait, plus you can use your FordPass Rewards points to get a discount. https://www.ford.com/product/ford-fast-charging-adapter-nacs-p2999073032
How did you activate each session?
If you paid for the membership in the Tesla app, and then activated each session in the Tesla app, you would pay through the Tesla app and therefore receive your discount. If you didn't, you wouldn't.
Plug & Charge will not activate if the session has already been initiated prior to plugging in. The Supercharger will already be activated, and it will not ask the vehicle for the Plug & Charge payment credentials. Just activate first, then plug in, and it doesn't matter if P&C is on or off...
You do not need to disable Plug & Charge to get the paid discount you subscribed to. Just activate before you plug in. Disabling Plug & Charge also disables the Public Charging app, which I would not want to go without.
The Ford Home Integration System can do this, and is doing so in pilots with utilities around the country. The issue isn't the tech, it's the regulations and the utility policies.
If it was Option 1, then the dealer should have had you sign a acknowledgement form that you were taking the charger home with you, if not they should be using Option 2 and need to sign you up for the promo code email.
I'm not sure what you're describing. The dealer is on the hook to either...
There are two options to receive your complimentary charger with Power Promise:
Your dealer hands you a Charge Station Pro at delivery
Your dealer does not have inventory, so they submit a form to Ford to trigger a coupon code to be emailed to you, so you can place your own order for free at...
Complimentary orders ended on 9/30/24. You can sign up to be notified here: https://www.ford.com/product/ford-fast-charging-adapter-nacs-p2999073032 when adapters go on sale shortly. The Ford adapter is, IMO, worth waiting for.
Due to the nature of NACS where the same pins can carry AC or DC compared to J1772 and CCS, where separate pins carry AC and DC, any adapter that does both would have to connect the NACS power pins to both the AC and DC pins on the vehicle, which would be quite dangerous. Separate adapters are...
If you reserved your complimentary adapter from Ford, I'd just wait for that. If not, I'd put my name on the list for the Ford Fast Charging Adapter https://www.ford.com/product/ford-fast-charging-adapter-nacs-p2999073032
Home Backup Power works with all F-150 Lightnings, but requires the Ford Charge Station Pro home charger and the Home Integration System available through Sunrun. When those are installed together in your home, any F-150 Lightning can provide your home backup...
The Ford Fast Charging Adapter was co-developed by Ford and Lectron and it's improved vs. the Lectron Vortex design. It also includes an additional safety interlock vs the Vortex.
Adapter orders are shipping very quickly now. It won't be long now.
This mirrors my experience with V4 stalls, 3 times at one site in Madison, Wisconsin the exact same thing happened, each time I unplugged and moved the truck, only to have it repeat, and after I unplugged each time the stall itself went "Out of Order" in Tesla's app and "Unavailable" in...
Either way, be aware that encouraging disabling P&C does disable the Public Charging app as well, which some folks may value. I have not had an issue bypassing P&C when needed but I'm not saying others have or have not.
I would always recommend leaving Plug & Charge enabled, as disabling Plug & Charge prevents use of the Public Charging app on the touchscreen as well. Leave Plug & Charge enabled, but activate in the app first if you wish to bypass it.
I personally do not find the Tesla Membership to be worth...
