I had a GrizzlE charger before moving to Emporia. The GrizzlE was flat black and my install sat outside in direct Florida sun for about 5 hours a day. It would get smoking hot to the touch just sitting there.. I decide why not try to wrap it and bought a roll of Gloss White wrap on Amazon...
GM has a good handle on the domestic Li supply, for GM.. It is hard to try to find a good investment in Li domestically. I went on a personal research binge couple of years ago and came up dry as to dropping some penny stock money. Most of the Li mines on the startup side looked sketch at...
Manual windows allow the doors to be removed without fighting a janky wire harness and connector. The cost savings are not only in the windows and motors but also in the wiring to feed such. Of course we have to see what installing the electrics involves but my 2 cents.
I have solar on my sailboat as to not pay $40 a month for AC service at my slip. Boat has 200ah 12v lfp house battery and 12v lead acid start battery that is isolated from the lfp pack via a coupler so the old style DC alternate is not destroyed by the Lfp draw.
Have a 100watt flexibly...
The 12v on the wife's 21 died and the trickle charger attached to the "access" wires was not strong enough to pop the Frunk. Had to roll the Harley over and jump the MachE funk with its battery. Best part is I decided to take the opportunity to clean the jets on the Harley carb and put a...
I grind about 350 a week on my fleet vehicle and I cover an entire county not just one urban area. If a 30 amp charger was available at the location I park 150 miles would cover most days. Only on those rare stepping an fetching days would it be bothersome.
We have 2 MachE that have NCM batteries that 100% can shorten battery life, You can set the level of charge in the car via the center screen. This can be set location specific (ours are set to 90% at home 100% everywhere else) if we want to go over 90% at home we have to tell the car to do...
As long as it interfaces with Android Auto I will be good. If the pack turns out to be LFP charging to 100% daily would be fine and scheduling can be handled by the charger at to time of day.
Day to day the only connected function I use on my Ford is remote climate and juicing to 100 instead...
Great information.
On the drive motor, Ford sells them for $1600 with 281hp.

Also have an Elocker setup on the F150. Could be like AMC back in the day sourcing drive motors from the big 3.
Correct. My place has 200amp service and the previous owners had an sauna I use as a cedar closet. Just took that location on the panel. Sauna in Florida is going outside.
That is a judgement call.
I bought my first EV in February of 21 and bought the Ford 48amp charger and hard wired it myself for 48 amps. Damn thing worked for a week and bricked.
Known Software issue.
I returned it to for for a refund, put in the outlet and used the 24amp charger until my...
Like the look.
Could get one of these types of displays.

Question is will the Slate talk with your phone for Android auto.
Now Android route planning is just as bad as Ford with just awful stop...
