The above is to say that while some issue or standing damage to the charger could have been the source of the actual heat generation, cars are built to anticipate this on both the AC and DC side and monitor individual temps to prevent this. So I still don’t blame the charger.

No warranty. Its been a high of 70 here in MD and it's garage kept and only driven 3 or 4 days of the week. Not sure how heat messed it up but the leather/vinyl is definitely separated from the trim piece.

...cell temperature. Frunk and trunk open/close (with a confirm tap), on a second page of actions. Battery preconditioning, seat and steering wheel heat, max defrost and max A/C. AC charging current limit. Later, if there's interest: other Garmin models, multi-vehicle accounts, and a watch face...

...understand their description, but my sense was that since the refrigerant was quite low (37% of normal volume), it wasn’t carrying enough heat into the heat pump compressor to have the compressor kick on. Hence, the system was basically blowing ambient air. When the car was in motion, it...

I do expect a fair bit of power to be lost as heat during charging. But I can't say that I have any idea what would be a normal percentage, not for EVs in general, nor for the Gravity specifically. It would be interesting to see others report data for Gravity charging efficiency, but I...

I can confirm, my 2024 Sapphire has both, the new chip and the new heat pump.

With home assistant you can wake the car and set a temp based on outside temp and how soon you will be ready to go. Full disclosure I have not written this code but I’m seeing all the parts there, and even more if you want to write python.

You can manually turn on your car and have it heat/cool to a temperature you set. I am not aware that it can be scheduled for a specific tine on a daily basis.

...reality. All I really want out of it most of the time is dehumidification and fresh air, so the lower set point for me makes it less likely the heat will come on for no reason. Bring a lantern or clip-on light for the cabin. The interior lights turn off when the car goes to sleep, and they're...

Regen recovers 60% - 80% of kinetic energy that would otherwise be wasted as heat. In the real world, empirical evidence shows ~20% range gain with regen.

...after I installed the WPF. This is for the Air, unknown if they will offer one for the Gravity. Installation was easy enough. Didn't need a heat gun to soften the film to lay flat. I do wonder if there might have been too much soap in the slip solution and it contributed to the increased...

That’s a frustrating experience, especially when a small windshield crack turns into weeks of delays and complicated repairs. Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s a good reminder for Lucid owners to research repair options and insurance requirements in advance. Hopefully, the third shop gets...

If that’s the pump I think it is then it must be fixed or you could get stranded. What I’m kind of noticing is that if a pump heats something there’s a good chance it might cool something else. If it’s the one I had replaced it defrosted the front window and provided heat to the interior. It...

What is CCCv2? Since it can be bought from Lucid; does that exclude total loss cars? I am pretty torn between trying to buy a used one from used car dealers and buying one from auction that I fix myself / with my friends shop. I'm not one to sell cars so residual value doesn't mean much to me...

...Not to say that 2022 is bad choice, but you will be on your own without a warranty. The 2024s had some minor improvements, and the 2025s add a heat pump and an updated processor, which could save you the $1,000 upgrade cost. The heat pump only matters for heating in cold climate settings. I...

I asked Lucid technician to adjust the frunk after the car has been heat soaked for an hour or two. Now its 99% good even after 120F heat soak.

As far as I know ccu yes. Heat pump is 2025 model year. I have a May 2024 Pure

Thanks. Will try that and respond. I am putting in a Forgate P300-12T powerd sub. It fit almost perfect in the lower deck of the trunk, with the lid closing with no issues. Had it in my last car and it made a huge difference. Once done, I will send pics.
