Since the HV battery has two 400V sections that can be configured in a serial or parallel configuration, have the tear downs confirmed if there is one or two BMS's? There could be two BMS's implemented on a single large board so it might be hard to confirm such.
I have not seen any review of the Cybertruck that showed the flip up on the rear of the tailgate to stop 8 ft lumber/sheetrock/plywood from sliding out the back. Did that not make it to production like the midgate fold down at the front of the bed? Hopefully the tailgate is beefy enough to...
Check to see if the AC power outlets in the bed can be activated/supply power while charging from solar or any AC source. I believe a previous firmware enabled the AC truck outlets to be used while DC Supercharging. It would be nice to use the truck battery as a power source/buffer while AC...
The power usage screen should have an entry for power used communicating with the mothership (downloading firmware, uploading driving video, etc). If you have a slow internet connection the vehicle could be awake for some time. To verify parked power usage turn off Bluetooth on all phones with...
He did not specify if this applies to DC charging or AC charging or both? Seems if you were actively DC charging the onboard outlets should be able to deliver up to approx 9.6Kw (maybe someone could verify this). Maybe his statement applies if you were AC charging which makes some sense.
Tesla should add another entry to the power usage screen that estimates the energy used while parked AND communicating with the Tesla mother ship. I assume Tesla is gathering video in the background while Cybertruck owners are driving for FSD purposes? It is my understanding that video data...
Unless something has changed with Tesla vehicles, the vehicle should not wake up to keep the traction battery at an optimal temperature plugged in or not. It is not even clear if the vehicle would cool/warm the battery if the ambient/battery temps were above 120F or below -20F. Maintaining the...
Cybertruck reveal was on Nov 21st 2019
Reserved on Nov 23rd 2019
Reservation Number RN112908xxx
Updated reservation on June 7th 2020 to add FSD to lock in price of $8000? I believe the price at the reveal was 7K?
According to the spreadsheet, I am about 180K? in line for the Cybertruck...
If they did the opposite and mistakenly installed the hinges designed for the rear doors on the front, would they open 90 degrees or would something get damaged?
If you answer the survey and tell Tesla you already have a Powerwall (any version) and the older version 3 Wall Connector installed you get a $700 voucher. I thought Power Share required the newly released Universal Wall Connector? Do you at least have the option to choose the new Universal...
Just curious, I thought the max output via the truck's NAC port was around 11.2kW? That would require wiring to handle approx 48A continuous which would be a 60A circuit?
Did Tesla ship the Universal Wall Connector to you or did they require that it be shipped to the installing electrician? When I ordered my Wall Connector from the Tesla store about four years back, they shipped it directly to me. Looks like you can order the UWC from Best Buy and have it...
I believe it depends on what Tesla was charging for FSD when you put your $100 down to get in the queue. If I remember correctly it was 7K when I put my $100 down but I did NOT indicate I wanted FSD at that time. About a month later, after talking with a hiking buddy, the FSD cost had...
Why did you purchase a Universal Wall Connector with the measly $700 Tesla offered you? I believe all FS Cybertrucks include that item as part of the additional $20K cost. Hopefully Tesla does not require the Universal Wall Connector be shipped to a certified electrician like they do the V3...
I will answer both posts. Yes the Model 3 has an LFP battery so that is why the max charge rate is about 175kW and the battery size is about 60kWh. I am aware the Cybertruck will travel half as far or less on a kW of energy. It's not that the cost per mile does not matter, it is the time to...
Still took 40+ minutes to reach 80% SOC! Our 2023 Model 3, which has a max charge rate of around 170KW, adds miles faster than a CT charging at a 350kW pedastal.
Since MSRP is used to calculate the lions share of registration fees for several years, I would greatly appreciate it if someone who has taken delivery and registered their Dual motor FWD Cybertruck post the MSRP shown on the top of the registration form. I am weighing whether to pull the...
