  1. Mine did too. Looks like it was a bug that they just fixed. Joseph Elwell.
  2. My work has the Blink Network. They charge per hour. Unfortunately for Ford Fusion Energi owners that doesn't work out very well. That's because the Energi will take a maximum charge of 3.3KW. Our blink chargers used to get 30amps which provides 6+ KW charging. However they have been cut down to 25amps. Other vehicles can charge at a much faster rate, and when you're paying by the hour that makes a huge difference. Joseph Elwell.
  3. My "Home" also disappeared. All I have listed is default, on the website. When I go to "My Charge Locations" there are none listed in either Saved or Unsaved Locations. Which means I can't even recreate my Home profile. Joseph Elwell.
  4. Question: Does enabling NAV reduce your EV range? Background: I hadn't plugged in my NAV SD Card, because I didn't want NAV. Unfortunately the dealer only had models on the lot with NAV. I was thinking of selling the SD Card to try to recoup some of the cost of the NAV, but I checked ebay and found that the SD card is a mere fraction of the cost. Presumably the GPS and other(?) systems embedded in the vehicle are the bulk of the expense. I've been driving for a week or so without the SD card plugged in, the same commute over and over. The other day I plugged in the NAV's SD card and I get the impression the number of miles listed as remaining in EV mode has been subtly affected. Surely enabling the NAV has a drain on batteries. The touch screen is constantly showing the current street name on screen whether I've got a destination enabled or not. Those calculations/lookups are free. Does anyone have any data on NAV? Should I just leave the SD Card unplugged if I want to optimize my EV Range? My iPhone's Waze app has considerably better traffic and incident information and presumably better routing too - and I can charge that one at work for free. ;) Thanks, Joseph Elwell.
