It may be a fluke, few miles excessive kwh

plugged in just to let it keep warm on grid, what a reading. Never seen it before like this . its 17’ here in texas. we were almost winter full, just to pre heat and warm overnight

A day later I got the reading from elec provider, yea Sparkee used 45 kwh to just stay warm. I didnt notice any last year, so who knows what ford tweaked for the worse.

Same here, plugged in per the manual to keep warm in north Alabama. Have not driven since. First night it added 53KWH which made sense as that brought it up to 90%. Yesterday it said it added 63KWH to stay at 90% which I presumed was a cumulative or about 10 additional but last night, add 177 to get to 240.8 to stay at 90%, I sure hope not! It seems now to be going up at the rate of about 1kwh per minute. When i feel the cable, it is air temperature and the last blue chicklet isn’t flashing so I doubt it is pulling electricity at that rate.

Unplugged it, waited a minute and plugged back in and is no longer counting up and charge rate is no longer reflected.

Was it near or below freezing? If so the extra usage could be from heating the battery. I noticed mine would go into a preparing for drive mode and when it did it was drawing about 22 amps from the outlet the charger is plugged into. Otherwise the current draw was 600 ma. I am thinking as long as it is plugged in any power used is added to the charging total.

What do your charger’s software say?

The “Energy Added” data is known to be flawed. Some have seen huge numbers - hundreds of kWh.

Using the supplied EVSE until a charger with both plugs becomes available so, no help. Utility company website allows for hour by hour consumption but with the cold they are blocking that feature of the website.

Ok. What do you mean by both plugs?

Universal compatibility that easily transitions between NACS and J1772 connectors such as the Tesla universal promises. Thanks for asking as I now see they are available and I will go ahead and order one.
