Sample size of exactly 1 vehicle, but my other friend with a Rivian has a G2 Large+ and does not experience throttling, or has not as of today. He's in a garage, but that seems hardly impactful based on the anecdotes shared here.

Is this from an inside source? Very disappointed if so.

How warm was it where you live?

I noticed this this past week. 3 day trip where it sat at airport. Only "lost" 1%. I was surprised. However, my drive home saw me "billed" for the rest of it as I only averaged like 1 mi/kwh

From what I know and understand, I highly doubt it. Well not until your vampire drain pulls you below 40%.

Per the hot thread in this sub-forums, "The Preconditioning Myth" - I don't think any of that last statement is true, or at least with the definitive truth you speak. I have never seen my Emporia charger report power being pulled unless the car is below the trigger and charges up to meet it...

This is what I routinely see with my Emporia as well.

Fair enough. I'll retry with my own testing tonight.

Do you have any proof? I've never seen it on my Gen 1. The charger logs never wake up, unless its topping off the battery.

All of this has been a huge example of people inventing what they want to hear and then getting upset when it doesn't the work the way they invented in their head. I haven't done any scientific tests, but in having the truck for 8 months here's what I gather. 1) Charging warms the battery up...

Thanks for the replies folks, I suppose its "good" to see that it's occurring across all brands, as it does help point to something internally w/ the BMS on these G2s. On my G1 R1T, when I unplug after an L2 session to 100, my battery temp is always >70 regardless of outdoor temp. The fact...

Interesting observation here. Buddy above on the Tesla UWC limited amps to 36A via the scheduled charge feature in the app. When at 40A he has consistently seen the first drop off at 80%. When limited to 36A, the first severe drop didn't happen until 90%.

Imagine releasing a new generation of cars and not knowing how they would L2 chage while in the cold. Kidding aside, That's honestly a good point. My bud with this issue has a Tesla UWC. Wonder if that's common or if we have a solid example on another EVSE w/ just a J1772.

There shouldn't be - in essence. The EVSE will deliver 9.6 (40a) or 11 (48a) steady based on what the car will request. With that said, my G1 R1T does show a behavior where the first part of the charge is used to warm the battery; this is reflected in the "miles per hour" on the dash - it may...

Search is your friend, as most folks have stated—long thread already on this. But kudos for a well-summarized issue report, and it's interesting to see it's happening on your Large pack, as most examples have been on the TriMax. Since you're in NE, I assume it's been cold during these attempts.
