Unlock additional horsepower on Standard battery through Forescan?

[iam7foot1]

I'm wondering if it's possible to unlock the additional extended battery horsepower on the standard range Lightning through FORScan since it's clearly just a software setting.

My understanding was that it's not software limited but hardware limited; the smaller battery on the SR has a lower peak power output than the larger battery.

FORScan. Not like foreskin...

And no, you can't do that.

Annunciation is key. Who's the 5th grader that came up with that ridiculous name!?

A Russian... FOR (for Ford) Scan for well, scan...

Maybe they should change it to Fivescan???

The less horsepower comes almost directly from the voltage decrease of the pack size difference of 100/131.

My impression is that the voltages are the same, but the smaller battery cannot supply as much current?

Yep as you can see in this video nominal voltage for the SR pack is
8modules*3.7V*5P11S + 1module*3.7V*5P8S = 355V
ER pack is:
11modules*3.7V*5P11S + 1module*3.7V*5P8S = 477V

Both are still 400V class EV batteries. Both still supply the same motor dives, the difference is more power (wattage/horesepower) can be extracted per the same conservative limitations on the ER battery. I'd venture to say the only difference in an ER and SR performance wise has all to do with the battery (BECM) You can't tell a SR BECM that it's an ER BECM via software, Literally 3 modules are missing

The voltage and current are lower on SR due to the number of cells in battery pack.
