  1. South Coast Ridge Road - Los Padres National Forest - California Central Coast

    Riding into the sunrise... This was just after leaving camp (https://maps.app.goo.gl/Jn5LPM2E6ep3xqFv9) Configuration for this trip was leaving the hitch mounted tire rack at home and store the spare flat in the back, strapped down, of course. Then lift it out for the night. Cook on the...
  2. Rivian NACS Adapter Case - a good option

    I use the one from the original (recalled) A2Z adapter :-)
  3. Optima Unplugged Powered By Clarios Presented By DCE @ February 1-2

    How fast can you charge? 10kW Enough to fill up overnight?
  4. Accessory Mode should turn on power on the trailer connector - Workarounds until they fix that

    It's a good idea. But I normally have a fridge and a buffer battery and I often run the outlets on timer, so it may not be ideal for my use case How would you route the wire out of the back gate? just squeeze it by the rubber seals?
  5. Charging Ecoflow Delta Pro Ultra with Rivian R1T outlet

    All of the below is at your own risk... If the Rivian shuts off the outlet the moment you plug in, use this between the Rivian and the load. Startup spikes are definitely a problem for Rivian. Cheap batteries (what you buy on Amazon) like Bluetti and Ecoflow may not be able to charge with...
  6. Mendocino National Forest Overnight R1S Camping (2h North of San Francisco)

    I use the Rigid Armor. I did a lot of research to go cheaper with a la carte setup with different parts, and eventually decided to just go with this. It's a mixed bag and I am not sure I like the hitch rack. It basically prevents easy access to the trunk and sub trunk - where sometimes my fridge...
  7. Mendocino National Forest Overnight R1S Camping (2h North of San Francisco)

    I think the stripes came off. Just dirt. I did wash the car but didn't investigate.
  8. Mendocino National Forest Overnight R1S Camping (2h North of San Francisco)

    Relatively close to the Bay Area, and convenient superchargers (Williams and Upper Lake). Some stats, for those who wonder You can get from the Bay Area to Williams (on I-5) with 90% or so battery. There you fill up to ~90% (we did 97%) at the Tesla NACS while you eat at Granzellas. It takes...
  9. Bluetti Portable Power Station - Is This The Deal It Seems To Be?

    Forgot to update: We did have a power outage a few weeks back and everything worked as plan. I even remembered to plug in the short term UPS for the networking cabinet into the Bluetti/Rivian. Power came back after about 4h, so I didn't get to the fridge, though.
  10. California 21" OEM wheel set (4) with recent OEM tires + and 1 full size spare. $1500 (SF Bay Area)

    4 x OEM 21" wheels with Scorpion Verde A/S 275 /55 R21 116H XL BSW RI. 4 wheels have OEM TPMS, are balanced, have some 10k miles including off-road, but tires are almost new (8/32). Aero wheel covers, too. These are the most efficient wheels for the Gen 1. Full set new from Rivian is 4k. Just a...
  11. Accessory Mode should turn on power on the trailer connector - Workarounds until they fix that

    2V is on the blinker pins... So you say if I put a resister (how much) between those pins (both, either? ) and ground, it will "detect" a trailer and give me signal on the parking light? The problem is I don't want the car to think there is a trailer and turn off features :-( I could probably...
  12. Tricking truck into thinking a trailer IS connected?

    I currently think the resistor needs to go between a blinker and ground, not the tail light. Is that what you did? The reason is that there are steady 2V on the blinker pins
  13. Accessory Mode should turn on power on the trailer connector - Workarounds until they fix that

    Well, it doesn't work for my Gen 1 R1S. I have 0V on that pin, no matter what I do. :-( Does it still work in rear accessory mode for your car? E.g. this post says it stopped working right around when the towing update came out. This one has the same issue. Which pin do you power the light...
