Electrified Cybertruck body panels when charging?

[cyberbeasty]

Just saw this video. Can anyone confirm or is this just an issue with their truck?

It’s fake just for views, those guys are electricians because that fluke meter is about $500

This is just fake, you never seen the whole truck in the video at the same time. They are attaching lead to electrify the truck to get YouTube views, and trying to go viral.

This doesn't compute.

Since when can only electricians spend $500 on a Fluke meter?

Fake

…Every CyberTruck owner must be an Electrician

This is not fake. The charger had a hot line in its neutral.

fake, theres too many jump cuts and suspicious camera angles. But I'm sure the media will jump on this, they love this kinda stuff.

here is another sensational Instagram video of his, theres tons of them like using Cybertruck as a grain cart during harvest, etc… This is 1000% a scam and will be reported on I'm sure.

To the @op you really should be more thorough in researching stuff, if you fall for this you are just too gullible.

Can confirm. Not one, and have one. I don't know how to use it, but I have it in case of an issue to give readings over the phone for troubleshooting.

Of all the tens of thousands of cybertrucks already sold and out there, wouldn’t we have heard at least one report on this forum of someone saying hey, did you guys also get shocked when touching your car?

He had a video of bitcoin mining in the bed of the CT. I thought it was amusing. He really is a farmer, I do believe you can really pull a gravity wagon with a CT (or just about any suitable truck). We used pickup trucks to pull gravity wagons in the fields all the time. The electrical issue did track as "engagement farming" pun intended but shows what can happen if home based chargers are not hooked up correctly and safely. He really didn't do a good job of providing the cause of the situation, probably on purpose to engagement farm the post.

CT Engagement farming has a shelf life, the more CT's out there, the more people will skip over this stuff on social media. I predict in 12 months a lot of the current CT influencers will not have much of audiences anymore. When we all have the same stuff it's no longer drama.

Correct. It was not fake. Bad install on charger.

Yes its REAL, using the portable charger just plug into a ungrounded connection and the chasis becomes electrified (DC) proportional to the current being drawn.

I highly doubt that. Source or reason?
