For those of you with Ultra's, can you charge the truck without being plugged into the house/ground?

I just got the main new update as well. Probably just a coincidence.

Gen1 R1T here. Same issues for a few days now.

Seeing similar results. Maybe a new app update that is causing more connections with the vehicle?

Noticed a huge bump in VD in the last 48 hrs or so even with a tender attached. Seems like there must have been some change in the app. Waking up all the time. Have disallowed Bluetooth on my phone for a while to see if it helps.

Any decent LFP battery should be able to hold a pretty good charge for a long time. 20-30% self discharge rate over a year's time is what one would probably expect in many situations.

Battery tender running at around 10 kWh's per month where vampire drain would have cost me 40-80 during the same time period.

Rivian's recommendation is for the OEM tires. Since this has a higher PSI max, you will want it much closer to the max than something in the 40's.

I think like 350-400W would be peak since they wrap a bit like you said. But that design also allows for a good 100+W during most daylight hours. Also has a spot to add more via a SAE connection on the side.

I assume he means he would be setting up more at camp. As far as your trailer...are they older panels? I feel like I've heard way more on smaller. Heck, I have 620W on my little Tab400.

Sounds like the OP understands the limitations of the solar and is just using it for a few miles here and there. As someone that trickle charges his Rivian off of a tiny bit of solar (partially from RV connected to an EcoFlow), I know firsthand that you can get a little usable range from solar...

That sounds like pretty good efficiency for headwinds with those speeds.

Yes, I've noticed ours as well will say well over 200 miles of range when it can barely do 150 if everything is perfect. And it has over 1000 miles of data on this trailer.

Many of the same reasons we also have a Tab 400 (as you can see in my picture). Really did hope it would be better on aerodynamics than it is considering there is no AC on the top and obviously has a tear drop-ish design. But overall we absolutely love the things. Amazing for late and early...

Thinking of buying several things off this list. Any changes since you posted this?
