A user is reporting over on the Facebook group that he's found out the magic settings to get the car to start in EcoPro mode. Copying here. Thanks should be directed to Brian Lewis on the Facebook group: CODING for ECO PRO default driving mode! Figured it out! After fiddling with all the...

Drove to the airport yesterday (80 mile round-trip), REx kicked in with a couple miles left. Came home, plugged in, no issue. About an hour into charging, unplugged, ran to grocery store, came home and plugged in again. Noticed an error message on my phone a couple of hours later. Charging...

It comes up repeatedly that the Facebook group is a great resource. There are also many poeple that won't use Facebook for valid reasons, primarily privacy concerns. In case anyone is on the fence, its completely possible to use Facebook solely for the i3 group without providing any personal...

I'm going to be installing an EVSE for my on-order i3. I have a 2 car garage with extra storage space all along the right wall, and the i3 will be the only plug-in. I can locate the EVSE anywhere in the garage, as its going to be a new circuit pulled directly from the breaker panel. The...

Been tracking my i3 since I placed an order a couple weeks back. Dealer had a slot for week 41 production and I reserved that one, hoping that the new KLE would be ready and the car will come with the new unit. Just saw that my status changed and car is now in the Production Begins state. The...

I've purchased an EVLink EVSE that was on sale via HomeDepot.com Its a "hardwire" unit. I have an unused dryer circuit that I'm going to tap into and run into my garage that I plan to use for the EVSE. I'm also planning to pigtail the EVSE so I can plug it in, the rationale being that if/when...
