Seems overkill for the few times you'll use it. That said, it would be nice for camping as well, but I'd want something that goes up and away and lightweight.
almost all Lithium (lifepo4) batteries have an internal BMS, yes I'm aware that lead batteries don't have such a thing. If you are confused, google "how do lifepo4 starter batteries work".
AS I SAID; I DO NOT NEED IT EXPLAINED. I'm just looking for someone who's tried a LiFePo4 starter...
So, that's useless info, thanks.
Also 3 things; AGM batteries are Lead batteries, they just have a special mat to hold the electrolyte, the Powerboost actually has 2 of them, and drum roll... as I stated above, the BMS in the battery handles the voltage and charging curve differentials. All...
Has anyone tried the 12v lithium "starter" batteries in the powerboost? Mine is about 2 years old and has started having issues with sleep mode.
(Do not post info on lithium vs lead; I'm well aware of charge curve and voltage differences, these are allegedly managed by the "starter...
If you are looking for more function than color match, check out the Smartcap. It’s steel, way better spec’s than any fiberglass I’ve seen (Leer/ARE) and the white (commercial) version I think is still available for 5.5 beds.
Yep, love your setup; i do kinda the same thing but with a large percolator and electric warming trays (feeding more like 30-45 ppl). Like you; I’d like to see the black-out mode, a remote generator start (maybe a pop-up on your phone/app when you plug something in), but also red led’s in...
So just a guess, but I think there are multiple factors on how much it charges; like the battery temp and if it’s in park (driving around it should charge less as it needs headroom to store breaking energy)
It does seem strange to have on the sticker. Maybe they have to program something on the hybrids, but need to a way to make sure it isn’t charged to the customer???
The dealerships tears?… Seriously though; I can‘t say for certain but it looks like the aluminum is oxidizing and getting washed off. I’d get a Ford mechanic to look at it.
And also; be aware there seems to be a bug. If you have an alert that is popping up like “low washer fluid”, your engine will turn on and stay on, regardless of charge state or how little power is being used.
So, great info peeps, what I wish for is a “Camping” mode/profile. Generator on, headlights off, internal screens off, double honk off, AC/radio/etc off, and maybe an option for red LED’s vs the white zone. Also fire the idiot who put the antennas on the rear of the cab (Does anyone have a...
So I’m getting 2 different stories, FordPass help desk is telling my I can enable blue cruise and the dealership sez I don’t have the right parts. Can anyone tell from my vin?

Hi peeps, just to clear up some technology FUD; If your vehicle is taking days or “a month” to update via USB, you have some other problem that needs to be addressed. Either there is a badly run and/or connected canbus, bad memory, bad configuration, corrupt code, or some other issue. “Let...
