  1. 12V Battery Replacement Megathread

    No issues at all for me

  2. Why I’m leaving the Rivian Family After Owning / Leasing 3 R1Ts

    Have you seen his new pay package?

  3. R2 10-80% charge test (by State Of Charge)

    The car can always want less, and cap it at 500amps

  4. R2 10-80% charge test (by State Of Charge)

    400kw over 800V is 500amps. That’s within the adapter’s 500amp limit spec. If they want to be really careful, they could “de-rate” to 450amps for 360kw.

  5. Why I’m leaving the Rivian Family After Owning / Leasing 3 R1Ts

    The wrecker’s tires are massive to distribute the weight. There’s no way a consumer EV will have tires that big.

  6. Why I’m leaving the Rivian Family After Owning / Leasing 3 R1Ts

    I think heavy EVs and soft sand simply don’t go together, regardless of tires or tire pressure.

  7. R2 10-80% charge test (by State Of Charge)

    Yes, but my point is that with 800V, when charging at 240kw, a customer wouldn’t have to run the risk of going over the 500A limit, or frying their adapter, at all.

  8. R2 10-80% charge test (by State Of Charge)

    If the iX3 were charging at 240kw speed on a 800V connection, the battery pack would be considerably cooler than this. And, any adapter wouldn’t be running the risk of going over 500amps (or even close to burning a pin), since it would only be pulling 300 amps.

  9. R2 12V Battery Location - Photo

    I’ve swapped mine to the ohmmu sodium after I got a warning. Luckily, the RIDE menu was enough to clear out the error code. It seems enough people have gone with the ohmmu to know it works. It’s supposed to last 3x as long as the oem agm ones. So I’m hoping I don’t have to replace them again...

  10. L2 Adapter Included?

    Isn’t Nevada a CARB state? If so, the adapter and portable charger should be included for free

  11. R2 10-80% charge test (by State Of Charge)

    The battery pack is a lot more than just the cells. The copper or aluminum connections between all the cells make up a lot of heat too. If the heat can be dissipated easily, then Rivian should have done so from day one, and so should every EV battery pack manufacturer. But there is a limit based...

  12. 12V battery replacement AGAIN after ~1.5 years? Normal?

    Replacement by Rivian should come with a 2yr warranty

  14. Cost for 12v battery replacement nowadays

    Just one of the batteries. I connected it to the secondary (passenger) side one.

  15. Cost for 12v battery replacement nowadays

    Rivian refused to discount my batteries and wanted to charge full price of $800+. Even after I told them others were getting a discount to $500. It pissed me off. I got the sodium ohmmu batteries along with battery monitor. I replaced the 12V myself. The sodium batteries are supposed to last 3x...
