R1T 12v Bed Power, Some Wheels Going on Sale Soonish and... R2 Projects!

[Sojhinn]

Howdy all!

First up! With the help from some members here on the forums, and some nice wiring diagrams we have a nice simple wiring harness to add 12v power to the the bed of the R1T. This is limited to only 60 W (some small wires invoved), but should be plenty to power your fridges or small devices. Install video and purchasing found here:

Second...

We are going to be offering these wheels for a group buy Very SOON-ish. We will be doing these in R1 20" size (with the same offset as OEM), in both the gunmetal gray shown and satin black (I don't have an example of this yet, but will be getting it for my own R1T) AND we will offer the design in the R2 offset and 20" size as well.

If there's enough interest we will open the group buy ASAP. The wheels should be mounted onto the truck soon.

Third!

I am in the middle of designing several accessories for the R2. (I was lucky enough to get an early delivery). We are in the middle of designing and prototyping. But I hope to have final products in hand within 6 weeks.

Happy to talk about those accessories if others are interested!

$2500 including shipping is what we are hoping for. Need to confirm based on our group buy!

I'll be ordering that 12V bed mount after I get back from my summer camping trip.

One suggestion; put a link to that up in the GoFast forum as well. The GoFast interior lights draw about 40W IIRC (I'll verify on my camping trip) and come with a 12V plug that hangs right in that corner of the truck.

There's not a lot of Rivian GoFast's out there, but this is perfectly designed for those that exist.

The wheels look great!

Do they come with tires mounted. If so, specs?

No. We are selling the wheels alone. You will need to source TPMS or swap them from your OEM wheels and tires.


However the tires on the wheels are the Toyo Open country EV and I recommend them.

Our first customer with the wheels did us a solid and took some golden hour pics.

I like the 12v bed socket but am saddened it would not support my SUP pump.

This runs fine out of the gear tunnel 200w socket. Wondering why that was not tapped.

Oh well. At least would support our refrigerator without engaging the 1110v inverter.

Simplicity of the install is king. Also you can always turn on the inverter for those few moments. This is for the long drives so you don't need to run the inefficient inverter.

Yep.

Will order one as soon as we're back in the states. Nice job filling that gap in functionality.
