I've been using the Lectron with a Gen 3 Tesla HPWC since Sept '23. No issues. If I was in the market for a new wall connector I'd probably go with the Tesla Universal one, but this setup with the Lectron is serving me fine at the moment.
I read the instructions and spoke to an installer. Recommended setup is to put the 2nd Tesla HPWC on it's own 60-amp breaker and then let the Tesla software load-balance between the two chargers. Supposedly, they will not draw more than 60-amp (well, 48 I guess) whether it's from a single...
Took delivery of my R1S about 5 weeks ago and was crazy scared after reading about all the issues with panel gaps and reliability and stuff. I don't know if they are just building them better these days (VIN 20k), or just fixing them prior to delivery at the Service Center, but my R1S was just...
The problem with free DC fast charging (not just RAN) is that it encourages people who live near them to charge there often instead of at home because it's cheaper. This means less stations for people who really need them (road trippers and people in apartments or condos with no at-home option)...
Same problem here, wife is 95 lbs. Airbag argument aside, the Rivian should detect a person (of any size) in the passenger seat and enable HVAC controls.
Nice setup, thanks for the info. How is the load-balancing when both vehicles are plugged in and sharing the 48amps? Is it intelligent like it would be for plugging in 2 Teslas - where the HPWC's and the Teslas negotiate the amperage that each vehicle needs, based on state of charge etc...
Just picked up my R1S this past weekend (VIN 20,xxx) and I've got the GPS hunting/bounce etc. Vehicle is running 2023.34.0. Interested to see if it will be fixed by software or it's a service visit.
I gave up my June/July spot for regular delivery and instead picked out a vehicle in the shop in May hoping for sooner delivery. It was a 6 month old vehicle and didn't have the latest enhancements. I was unmatched and then had to wait to get placed back in the regular delivery queue. Now...
I picked an R1S Launch edition from the shop in June and then realized it was a very earlier build from January - VIN <200. No one could tell me why it wasn't sold, where it had been for the past 5 months or what was wrong with it, if anything. I got a fair amount of grief from the guide but...
Me too! Taking delivery Sep 23. I'm looking for ceramic coating. A lot of people recommend Tinterz. I have a quote request into them. https://tinterz.net/orlando-fl
I'm interested in other recommendations also.
Is that the old CompUSA store on Dale Mabry near the 275 ramp? Brings back memories of when I lived in Carrollwood. Hope Rivian lasts longer than CompUSA - or maybe they already have.
Still says "processing estimate". March 2021 pre-order, I live near a service center. Just a basic launch edition R1S, no underbody, no PPF, no max pack or tent or anything else to delay the order but still no love from Rivian.
