  1. Test Report: EG4 Chargeverter Works Well

    My understanding, which may be incorrect, is that two of the bed outlets are driven by the front inverter, and thus can be powered in addition to the 240v bed outlet which is driven by the rear inverter. Is that wrong?
  2. Are there any real bidirection chargers available?

    Interestingly this seems to be due to their attempts to build/sell/deploy a sort of complete all-in-one solution that is "fully integrated" with the truck and provides AC out the far end. I haven't heard anyone say that the electronics don't work - ie that electrons do not flow - but rather the...
  3. Are there any real bidirection chargers available?

    Can you please explain what the differences are?
  4. Are there any real bidirection chargers available?

    I heard about the Emporia V2X, then read about a number of other bidirection L2 chargers intended for home use. Are any of them, (ie I can buy one today) and capable of connecting to the Lightning other than the Ford one which apparently doesn't actually work? The Emporia V2X, although...
  5. Test Report: EG4 Chargeverter Works Well

    I have no financial connection to, and receive no benefit of any kind from, the products mentioned below. I recently leased a 2024 Flash with the intention of using it as an additional backup battery for my off-grid solar system. After reading the horror stories about HIS, I have avoided going...
  6. I have an outbuilding with no power installed. Can I install this, and have a 'standalone' off grid solution with ProPower 230v outlet? Thanks!

    Setting aside the question of code now, let's just talk about safety. But is that really true? His "house panel" is actually grounded. With a real ground rod. Yes, the distance (and thus impedance/resistance) from the outbuilding to the house ground rod creates some safety issues. But at...

    The thing that you mentioned at the very beginning, the bonding issue, is real. As best I can tell, and I would love to be corrected, you cannot bond neutral to ground in your outbuilding and then plug that into your truck. You will trip the ground fault circuitry in the truck. That means...
  8. Home Assistant - Ford F150 Lightning Dashboard.

    Ok, that (the error that I got) happens when instead of reading carefully, cutting the URL from the first line in the HA config dialog, and pasting that into your browser, you just navigate to fordpass.com and try to do the rest. If you do go to the URL provided by HA, as directed, then the...
  9. Home Assistant - Ford F150 Lightning Dashboard.

    So I followed the instructions, and my token URL doesn't start with fordapp:// it starts with https://www.account.ford.com/etc/... Anyone done this recently? Does this look familiar at all?
  10. Home Assistant - Ford F150 Lightning Dashboard.

    Anyone having any luck getting a new instance of the integration working on HA? Is anyone working on the integration? Last checkin appears to be 8 months ago...
