charge

My wife and I just came back from a trip from Louisiana to Sacramento California. We took I-40 through Dallas there and I-10 back. A few of observations. - Apple Maps for EV routing sucks. - There are plenty of charging stations but some are in areas that may not be all that safe. Some...

I took my 2024 Mach E Premium on its first road trip this weekend. Upon returning home, I plugged it into my L2 home charger, a Ford Charge Station Pro with 60A breaker, and received a "Charge Fault" with the red light on the exterior charging indicator for the first time (I've had it for 3...

I bought the 2024 91kw rear wheel at the end of December, and I charged it to 100% last night for the first time. I am plugged into a 240 outlet. The Ford Pass app shows that the new range at 100% is 283 miles. The dealer highlighted on the window sticker for me the 320-mile max range. Why...

Just love the car. Spent a lot of time youtubing videos on it before leasing it. Currently using the 120v 15a outlet for charging as generally I don't use the car everyday and my daily trips may only be 39 miles r/t. I also have access to the dryer outlet and bought a splitter cable that works...

Monday, I did a short trip to test DCFC for my new MME Rally. (I know this is old hat for most here, but it might be interesting to some.) First test was a local Tesla Supercharger with Magic Dock. I had just seen a YT video using a Magic Dock without needing the Tesla app. This test was to...

I purchased the Ford Connected Charge Station from my dealership when I bought the Mach E. Everything I have read, including the documentation with the product says the charging cord is 20 feet long. Mine is actually 14.5 feet long. Has anyone else noticed this? I contacted Ford - they are not...

I just picked up my 2023 Mach e premium extended range awd and I’m loving it. But I am concerned because 2 times the battery has dropped considerably out of nowhere. The first time it happened my battery was at 68% when I pulled into my church. Less than 2 hours later I get in my Mach e to go...

Whelp! Now we can add this to the reason that EA and others got help to build chargers and used Zero dollars of that money to build new chargers....... https://www.politico.com/news/2023/12/05/congress-ev-chargers-billions-00129996

I’ve searched recent threads and did not come across a similar situation. I frequently use a ChargePoint station while at work. Plugged in as normal. When leaving work ChargePoint station has registered time but has 0 estimated added miles. Check FordPass and has a charging error message...

Hi all, I know that for battery it is usually better to charge at 80% most of time except for long distance (weekend/vacation). As my MME have a 99 Kw range but only 88 usable, I wonder if I can go to 85 or 90% of charge at home without prematurely reduce the battery life. So I start this topic...

Hello all I have a level 2 Juicebox charger at home on capable of charging upto 32 amps. To preserve battery health is it better to trickle charge at 6 or 12 amps overnight when possible keep charging at 32 amps? Thoughts?

Hi, I took delivery of my MME last week. I already had a charger installed in my garage. But I have no WiFi access/connection in my garage. Do I need it to monitor charging or anything else? Thanks

Here's one of the worst trip report experiences you can ever have. I dropped my car off April 13 to the body shop at 38%. Today is May 25 (42 days) and the car has gone from 38 % charge to 34 % charge. This is an average of roughly 1% per 10 days. Another thing I've learned is that body shops...
