Thats true, although my FFE is garaged and during this time of year it maintains about 58* throughout the night....so its unlikely the TMS is having to do that much work.
I just realized I have a pretty accurate way to gauge this too. I use a system from PowerhouseDynamics that attaches to each breaker on my main panel and measures current, voltage, etc at 1Hz. My EVSE (JuiceBox Basic) also has a dedicated circuit, and the PHD system understands how to deal...
I always read these posts with fascination.
I live in Oakland, CA.
When I went to my local dealer (San Leandro Ford), for the entire month that I spent looking, they had at least 4 FFEs on the lot at any given time, one in each color.
I wandered onto the lot on a Saturday and drove away 90...
The Bosch is fairly popular, and gets decent reviews.
I will say that the JuiceBox Premium can be purchased fully assembled for about the same price as that Bosch with a longer cord and wifi capability :).
Can't go wrong either way.
I live in Oakland, CA.
Paid $300 for addition of new breakers and outlet near existing panel for 50A RV outlet.
Paid $350 for JuiceBox EVSE that I assembled myself in 90 minutes.
Total: $650.

What happens when you get that low. The lowest I've been to is 10mi remaining and the car bonged and turned the battery icon orange.
When it hits 0 does the car stop, or is there some reserve left, etc?
A lot. Everything you can see on the first page when you login to https://phev.myfordmobile.com/ is in the result of the query....
Battery state of charge, distance to empty, odometer (both in km), go times, etc....
Here's a simpler formatted list of the data:
BATTERYDISPLAYTYPE: BEV...
I wanted a way to graph some of my data from the PHEV site in a different way than ford does it (and I want to track odometer too, because I'm on a lease)...
Here's a Python snippet to do so...its pretty easy:

Hi Everyone,
Came out to my car this morning about 1 minute after go time, and it was doing its normal whirring of the fans, etc.
However, it also had a bit of a squeal coming from under the hood...much like a fan belt.
Anyone heard this one before? I'd rather not take it in :(. The car is...
