That’s a sound analysis. It might be a while—years, perhaps—before I reach a verdict. I’m still glad to be the lab rat.
The IBS settings I’ve changed with JScan appear to have no impact on how the truck charges the 12V battery; maybe they apply only to non-etorque vehicles. Or maybe I just...
First, a nitpick: AGM is a type of lead acid battery.
I put in a LiFePO4 starter battery in my truck a few months ago. Too soon to say whether I’d recommend it. I wouldn’t not recommend it so far, but longevity remains to be seen.
My reason for going lithium is to power my...
Who claimed for 10 days? Ford says up to 9.6kW, or “if you ration,” up to ten days. But you’re not going to get 10 days as 9.6kW continuously, nor did Ford imply you would.
That reminds me; it was time for me to renew. For those looking for the Account Upgrades link, it's under your username in the upper right (or just use the link I provided here).
I’m not a PR expert, but I do have one suggestion for the Greater Idaho movement: maybe don’t use a color scheme that resembles the Communist China flag.
Two people mentioned bedslides and Decked drawers. Here’s a product from a Dirtbox Overland that combines both ideas: two drawers, and two half width slides.
A much different beast, particularly price wise, than some of the options in this thread. Even more expensive than a bed slide or Decked...
Just in case anyone else was thinking, like I did, "Wait a minute, don't all 5th Gens have a locking tailgate? Wouldn't you need to unlock the truck to open the tailgate?"
Yes to the first, no to the second: At least if you have proximity unlock, you can walk up to the tailgate with key in hand...
That’s about why I’m wondering. I work from home, so I don’t drive my truck often. I’ve now replaced my 12V battery, but I’ve the SoC and voltage of the 48V as I commented in my other post.
I wonder if those numbers are normal, or because I don’t drive enough to keep the 48V charged.
Reviving an old thread. Has anyone else monitored their 48V battery using JScan or AlfaOBD?
I was surprised by two things JScan showed me: the state of charge was consistently below 60%, and the voltage was around 44 V.
Are these values normal? 60% SoC strikes me as low, but not worrisomely...
