This is more or less what I want to do. This guy used a jackery battery on his backseat.
What I want to try is find a similar battery that can fit under the rear seats in that cubby, then run 2 wires, one to battery tender on OBD, and one nema plug to the rear 120V so the rivian can charge the...
To actually answer OP, you need to charge it for awhile if it's dead before it can turn on normally. Also you need to use a high power charger. Rivian doesn't give exacts other than "use a laptop charger instead of a phone charger". I take that as in >=35W. Charge for a few hours, try again...
Front right, baby! Solves the Tesla problem, solves the European curbside charging they initially were solving by putting it on the right for R2/3. Also allows you to access trunk if you have pets back there, or want to rest on tailgate while charging.
Only downside is campgrounds when backed...
Also, ignore the EPA estimates. To get the 405miles in conserve mode, you'd need to hit 2.85mi/kWh which I'm sure no one has hit on a 400 mile round-trip.
To get your true estimate, take your average mi/kWh and multiply by 142 (your usable capacity). Maybe calculate that per drive mode. And...
Me neither but have seen some scary reports on Reddit post-update, including a bricked truck. So they may have slowed/paused roll out. I'm holding off until my road trip next week even if the notification does come.
OP - you don't want a auto-disengaging AP like the Duals. Probably my biggest annoyance with my DMP. I understand you want it to auto-disengage only at high speeds but I know I wouldn't. I would much rather engage Conserve mode myself. And have a fun AP mode for most of my non-road trip drives...
Funny, I actually really dislike the disconnecting motor on my Dual. I would much rather have all-purpose keep both motors engaged and have a Conserve mode I can manually opt-in to for road trips to disconnect it. I drive around in Snow mode most of the time now to keep the motor engaged.

Since this thread is still fairly active, people looking for chargers that fit that work on android, thought I'd chime in. I'm on a Pixel 7. There were conflicting reports in the amazon reviews whether the suggested JSAUX work on Pixels or not. Also there's a new "15W Prime" version of the...
