Scheduled Charging more than 1 time period?

[Geralt919]

My electric company in NC has two daily ‘discount’ periods during the October to May time-of-use rate plan. I recall Rivian having some TOU rate plan integration, but can’t find it for the life of me in the app or in the vehicle. I’ve been using the Scheduled charging, but I have to manually change the time window each time. Am is missing some obvious way to have more than one scheduled charging period in a day?

Pretty sure you can’t.

Also I really don’t understand the programming choices made that led to “Daily” OR “Weekdays” as tabs. The dial is the same for both.

Why not allow 2 scheduled, weekday and weekend?

Also, I selected “Off-peak charging 9:00pm-4:00pm”, yet the app then below says,
“Start
Thursday
8:00am

Stop
Thursday
4:00pm.”

In the app, select "Energy", scroll down to the bottom.

Unless you’re just looking for the “Off-peak Charging” toggle. There’s 2 locations in the app. Not aware specifically of a split window off peak option. Let’s us know if you see it.

This only allows for a single schedule.

I was strictly responding to the part of your post that says "I recall Rivian having some TOU rate plan integration, but can’t find it for the life of me in the app or in the vehicle.". But, yeah, I'm pretty sure you can't have more than one, ATT.

I’m not 100% sure about this but I think when you have your location set correctly it knows the energy providers time of use ( in my case super off peak) and when I enable schedule from my app it defaults to midnight to 6 am. Not sure how it would do that if you were trying to use two off peak schedules. I have an off peak and super off peak but the only one ever in my schedule is the super off peak which is the lowest energy charge period. Once my car thought it was somewhere else and failed to start charging one night. I think I had to do an infortainment reset to get it back on track
