Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

Thank you, my dude. I saw this and I was curious as to how low it actually went.

It will go down to 8 amps.

Curious why it matters? The truck will only pull as much as the EVSE says it can. So unless you're in the habit of something like plugging a 40A EVSE into a 30A socket, it shouldn't be an issue. And most of the smarter EVSEs allow you to specify the charging current limit. So if you had a 40A or 48A EVSE and wanted any vehicle to charge at no more than 16A, you could set that limit in the EVSE.

Err. They’re identical ?
Looks like the little shelf/ compartment at the back of the console(behind the latches) is about 2.25” X 7”.

So its a bit of an optical illusion, there is no shelf back there, just a humped trim piece that links to the rear vents, it has no depth to it and thus not really usable for storage.

aha, I get it now! Thanks for checking

I had to triple check this morning as well, as I was looking at my own photo and didn't quite believe it !

You can. There is a little keypad icon on the top left of the phone screen. Press it and a keypad opens.

I don't even see a phone screen on mine. I wonder if I need to re-pair my phone and see if that changes anything.

I'm sure it's under the overflow menu (the three dots). Mine was there even before phone pairing.

I'm still a little bit confused about charging and could use some insight.

If I have to use a 110 outlet soon after delivery (until I get 240 installed), do I have to adjust the amps or will the R1T do it automatically? If I have to adjust, what do I adjust it to? (12 or 15?)

This makes me wonder, does the indentation in the lid at the back go over something, or is there a space there when closed?

I did this and the truck did change the amperage, but it is best for you to check. I set it to 12 amps on a 15 amp 110v outlet.

A space for cords, similar to the front it seems.

space enough to store a phone cable under this indentation?(having abandoned the idea that a pair of singlssses would fit there ?)

Is there a camping / pet mode where the HVAC can be left running overnight? Bonus question: can it be left running while plugged into a charger?

Thanks!

It should default to a speed that is suitable for a typical 15A circuit breaker with no other loads running.

If it's a 15A breaker and you have other things plugged in on it (or lighting), you may want to reduce it a bit. If it's a 20A breaker and you have some small things plugged in, it should be fine.

Not yet, but seems like a highly requested feature. You can enable climate remotely via the app, but as soon as the pup moves to the front seat and triggers the occupant sensor, they get local control and the app gets locked out. Unclear how long app-enabled climate will run.
