Sigenergy Warning Risks of V2G/V2H/V2X: EV Hardware, Software and Warranty Limitations
Our Mustang Mach-E Powers an ENTIRE House! Bidirectional Charging from Sigenergy (V2X)
Video dated Mar 17, 2026 but I had not seen it published here and some new details were discussed or expanded upon:
Video queued to start of interview: just press play
Here is a link to a Shifting Gears article on how this issue unfolded and how Ford was blindsided by the letter:
White House whiplash: Stunned Ford execs learn of harsh Sean Duffy letter through media
I am only posting the actual timeline of the letter's release here. You can read the entire...
The technology you are referring to is CATL's M3P battery.
While it is frequently grouped or contracted alongside lithium iron phosphate (LFP) offerings due to its structural similarities, it is technically an advanced variation of lithium manganese iron phosphate (LMFP) chemistry.
Key...
That is the problem with NCM batteries used in the 25 Escape PHEV.
Note the line above: "Manufacturers often recommend limiting daily charging to 80% to protect long-term battery health.". Ford is just implemented what should have been done first: 100% charge showing to the customer is really...
As a follow up on alternate battery chemistries LMR (Manganese-Rich Lithium) batteries being used by Ford the date quoted is around 2030.
LMR (lithium manganese-rich) battery-powered production vehicles will launch in 2028, with pre-production kicking off slightly earlier.
Production and...
Those different battery chemistries are years down the road for actual production.
The Fathom is estimated to cost $38,000 or more if they had to switch to NCM batteries:
Video queued to discussion on ramifications (cost & delays) if Ford was banned from using LFP batteries:
You forgot to mention the missing truck bed on your examples :rolleyes:
Try putting 12+ bags of mulch (3cf) inside your Kia, Bolt or Leaf.
The Bolt and Leaf have already been out there for years and I have no interest in them at all.
I own a Maverick Hybrid and want to replace it with an...
Looks like Ford has a few fixes to address the problem (see above).
Hopefully those fixes will be done for the Fathom.
Since I live in Texas I probably won't see any issues but if a freeze does happens here and fogging does happen I will look at the Community Workarounds to help with the issue.

Locked in my price with a PURCHASE AGREEMENT today vs the PREVIEW ORDER - AVOID ADM fees.
Tim's video here states going back to dealer and get a "Signed Buyers Order" to protect yourself from bad dealers who are marking up custom orders when they arrive:
So it looks like Ai slop that has the "approximately 450 volts DC" in the Google Search and the 2022-2023 Maverick Hybrid HV Battery Removal Guide (PDF).
Take a look at this article on the Mach-E Forum:
2025 Mach-E Heat Pump Technical Info
Note this:
Since the Fathom is going to Zonal architecture with 5 Zones and No CAN Bus (uses Ethernet instead) I wonder if the Heat Pump system was redesigned (skunkworks) from the ground up for the Fathom...
I have to remember that again.
Until I replaced the 12v battery with an H5 AGM battery I couldn't do remote start because of deep sleep happening constantly over the last 3-4 months.
Now I have to rewire my brain to remember to do the remote start a few minutes before I leave the restaurant.
That's good to know. Thanks for the update.
My Hybrid Maverick gets baked sitting here in Texas.
After lunch even with reflective sun screens covering the front windshield the inside temperature measured around 120 degrees near the bottom of the front console (temp gauge plugged into the 12v...
The AC Compressor in the Maverick Hybrid is 450 volts (same as battery pack voltage)
I expect the Heat Pump Compressor in the Fathom will also run at the battery pack voltage around 400 volts converted to three phase AC voltage.
Current price for a new Ford Maverick Hybrid AC compressor...
