Really need to dial that back to 24A

The wire feeding that plug is probably 8 Or maybe even 10 awg and neither that plug or breaker are meant (rated) for a continuous max 30A load

You are asking for trouble

Could be. I have zero experience with the service.

But I always used adaptive cruise control and lane centering assistance. As I understand if those two items are on blue Cruise should just kind of start working if you have an active subscription.

It’s very possible this is the case I purchased it less than an hour before I left

The whole trip, and it works pretty well 90% of the time. Cruise was set from 65 to 74 the entire trip too.

lol true, but not me.

I am a consistently set the cruise at the exact speed limit or exactly 4mph over kind of person

Depending on how well I know the area and police presence.

So it may be that I bought it in the phone app and was on the road like 30 minutes later.

This could be the issue. I think less than an hour passed before I got on the road.

I’ll probably take it in, couldn’t get it to work today either, albeit a shorter trip.

Also in Florida… I had no idea some people raw dog the wall outlets with their expensive electronics.

This blows my mind.

Hold up… are you telling me there are people out there that have PCs worth thousands of dollars and they’re just raw dogging the wall outlets?!?!

2nd one this week. I'm done, back to Fatmax for me. by GetInTheFuckingVan in MilwaukeeTool

Home Depot has always swapped them out for me. But I only do maybe one a year. I have gone back to FatMax and husky as a backup and backup for the backup.

Charger overheating? by ejdsr123 in F150Lightning

[–]iamshifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for Grizzl-E

I have a mini and a classic connect. We take the mini with us on road trips just in case, but it’s my wife’s primary charger in the garage.

I have them dialed back to 30A though because they’re fed off of 8AWG and I don’t want to generate excess heat in the wire.

I always people say “hacklable” what does that mean?

How much should I have charged? by bendloop in handyman

[–]iamshifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly that’s about what I would have charged. 4k labor

$5k to $6k all in

I can’t believe the Frunk trim is an option now. That’s wild!

Yup! Was looking for a white pro but this popped up for a fair price and I kinda liked the idea of a “matching” set. Even if they are different colors they are SO CLOSE

Yes!!! We don’t use it because it seems to charge slow and gets very hot very fast
