I have to say it was free and I am not complaining about that and it’s a 48 Amp unit.
But the reporting, trending etc is very poor. I do not see why anyone would buy one of these for $500-$800. ChargePoint and others offer so much more information, cost calculation, scheduling, utility integration, hourly trending for equal or less money. I will say a Chargepoint installs so much easier, about 1/2 the time and has no obnoxious incorrect dip switches inside as well.
Will Ford provide more of this information and functionality for the folks that bought it? It should be /could be the gold standard for charging. The first PIC is all you get for reporting from the Ford. The rest are ChargePoint photos.
Is there anything I am missing? Another app? Another page of data on FordPass?
