@itskyleconner Sometimes I miss my honda clarity… but I don’t miss it sounding like a 2 stroke lawnmower driving around town when the battery drained all the way 😂

Hey @ElectrifyAm why are you charging me an idle fee when I’m still pulling over 100kW?? 😂

Since I painted this, you should support the best team

@itskyleconner Curious.. do you have any details on what specifically about the DIN 70121 spec they don't follow? Got any PLC pcap traces you can share?

[Kyle Conner @itskyleconner]

This is better

A huge shoutout to @sparkcharge for sending us this mobile DCFC trailer (powered by a giant battery) to support our events this week!

Unintentional range test in the Cadillac Vistiq last night inspired by @itskyleconner. 97%->0%, 107.2kWh used… died on the side of the road 1 mile from my destination. Car’s stated range is quite accurate, but no buffer. Thanks @sparkcharge for coming to rescue me!

@itskyleconner I had the b node die on my APE a few months ago… they had to replace the whole unit. Any helpful DTCs in service mode?

[Adam Urban @aimfulwandering]

@wholemars Bambu is the most user friendly. I would recommend going enclosed and getting the P1S or X1C combo with the AMS. Or the new flagship H2D combo (skip the laser).

The elegoo Centauri Carbon is a solid enclosed budget option too if $ is a concern, though it does have a few issues.

[Adam Urban @aimfulwandering]

Any soy sauce experts out there? Are these the same? Or are they completely different?

[Adam Urban @aimfulwandering]

They support PLC communication with the charger and the ISO15118-2/20 and DIN 70121 protocols… they have pretty advanced BMS’ and liquid cooling, and communicate power limits to the charger in real time as the spec requires… it’s not rocket science, though I must say PLC was a terrible choice. Charging sessions would be way more reliable if they just used CAN like Tesla originally did (and like CHAdeMO / GB/T do)

[Adam Urban @aimfulwandering]

@techAU @Suprinity @BoschAustralia I doubt it’s what is happening here, though I will say I have personally done this (plugged into public DCFCs to charge things that aren’t the vehicle, in a petrol vehicle)

[Adam Urban @aimfulwandering]

@chuckcook @matthew_driver We definitely don’t know yet, but if things go how I expect them to, version 1 will be a hand soldered prototype and version two will indeed be a custom PCBA (probably in a small plastic case).

[Adam Urban @aimfulwandering]

@ImprintedPrints @AndrewFinegan @Tesla @Model3Owners @TeslaModelY @TesLatino @AnythingTesla @blueskykites @wholemars It may, though I have not yet torn down a highland screen to confirm. I don’t suppose you have a spare?? 😂

[Adam Urban @aimfulwandering]

@itskyleconner You’re in Boston @itskyleconner? Come say hi to us @sparkcharge !

@01Ananto For the HDMI output solution you still do! The one pictured here is for going the other direction, to send and HDMI source to your tesla display

@portal02 No, this device is to go the other way; eg to put video on your built in display.
