cold weather

  1. Cold Weather range is no joke

    Well starting to get the first dose of cold weather in the area (30 and below) and man, you guys aren't kidding. Went from 88% to 65% with pretty much normal driving. Not truly worried since I charge at home and commutes are small but just wasn't expecting it. Does the heat pump really make that...
  2. HVBJB in cold weather

    So, I just blew the 3rd HVBJB on my ‘21 GT in the past year. Almost a year to the day on the first one I did. (Four total, one before I owned it was not replaced with the revised part). Each time I popped it the weather was quite cold, I had pushed it to full power in Unbridled, and the battery...
  3. Coldest morning yet with Mach E

    Today was the coldest morning yet in Maine, with temperatures ranging from 30 to 35 degrees Fahrenheit. I pre-conditioned my battery this morning and charged it to 80%. My commute to work is just 20 miles long, and I usually take the back way because it’s more efficient in terms of...
  4. Cold Weather Mod: Front door window pocket draft mitigation

    I noticed that when it's really cold and driving on the highway last winter that there always seemed to be a icy cold draft dropping against the side of my face almost like it was coming from exactly where this little pocket gets formed by the front door windows when closed. If I covered this...

  6. How much power does Mach-E draw when plugged in but not charging?

    I have read recommendations to plug in the Mach-E every night, and now that it is cold out, the car displays a message saying it should be plugged in to protect the battery. How much power is that using every night? If it is even 2 kWh per night, that is Another 60 per month that should really...
  7. Preconditioning without a schedule?

    Temperatures are starting to drop here in NJ (it's 28℉ as I type this), so I'm starting to think about preconditioning my MME. I usually only charge my MME once a week and leave it unplugged the rest of the time. However, I've seen my GOM range start to drop with the cold weather and I also...
  8. Cold snowy drive

    Went on a 1200km road trip 20 deg Celsius on the way up and -1 snowy return 600km was almost all lanekeep and the other was all manual. What a difference that makes on the drive Oh and 15$ first 600km And 25$last 600km thanks snow. That's not including charging at my house and the free charging...
