I created a similar setup. But I also wanted to make sure the "investment" was not just for emergencies but also something that I could take advantage of daily and for other ad-hoc uses. I have the solar generator connected to some outdoor powered stuff that runs all day (e.g. fountain) and I...

No, as it’s a great way to cause mass confusion. I witnessed someone attempt to charge their Volvo at a RAN once. I politely explained it was for Rivian only. She gave me a not so pleasant look and tried another stall before giving up. I could only imagine her reaction if I said "it’s only for...

I've been playing with a similar idea in my head for a while. However, I was thinking the charge controller would be used to keep the Rivian battery charged vs the extra LifeP04. By keeping the Rivian 12v "topped off" via the solar you'd most likely improve vampire drain and reduce the risk of...

my advice would be to keep all limbs inside the vehicle when cutting off a ~7000 pound truck

I have about a dozen Sonos devices and had no clue what all the drama folks were referencing here. Just read about it and I'm so glad I decided to stay on "S1" and pick up a bunch of used legacy "S1" device off ebay at a fraction of the price. I thought no new update was going to be an issue...

Interesting idea... I suggest Rivian bails on in-house software all together and run Msft Windows! "

For typical daily driving use cases it will never make sense. Having the roof rank on will impact efficiency, so the stated gain in reality is a lot less. Realistically you won't have it deployed every day during peak sun, so the ROI would take many years. I think where this could be of high...

Great video. If the price holds, it's also the one I'm going with. I am signed up. I was a little skeptical about the bin design but seems to be pretty useful for everyday use cases. I'd love to get a diagram of the space as I am still worried there is a cost with the design over the flat plank...

In the FAQ it says "As long as the strings are within the 340-600V and maximum 20A range." My assumption is if the solar voltage happens to drop below 340 and/or below the pack voltage it stops charging.. If that’s the case, where does that energy go and are there situations where you are losing...

Do you have pictures? Either it was a Gen2, cameras were actually coming from the mirror, or the loaner had some unannounced and unreleased software to change the cameras (highly unlikely)

Bummer. The slide hitting the gear tunnel door on pull out seems to be a common problem with other manufacturers too as there are variations with each R1T. To solve it I've seen at least two manufacturers include spacers or shims to increase the height of the slide if needed. So, for sure a ding...

While you can't fully extend it with the console tray, it opens more than enough. I'm happy with how far it pulls out. Also, interesting choice not filling in the void in the front lip. As you can see the drawer ate the included pull cord and a folded $100 bill. Not a big deal for what I...

Use caution when manually testing various combinations of intero + bang in the address bar

Yep, I had already noted that it was the "base" price for the slide only (not a sale price). Also, I updated the original post to clarify that I meant that it's less "user-friendly" when it comes to tie downs (e.g. no T-Slot) as a base only side but is DIY friendly if you want to leverage the...

you're welcome

Confirmed on their site Also, Burbank is news to me... Anything that reduces the 4+ month wait time for an appointment in SoCal is good news!

Yeah good point. That's a major consideration and a couple inches is easily worth a few hundred dollars. Problem is, that information is not easily attenable. It would be great if manufactures published a diagram with dimensions similar to this (but obviously higher fidelity). It's a little bit...

I once ran a Philips super automatic expresso machine off my R1 during a power outage while my full-sized kitchen refrigerator, and my internet router was also plugged in. Was holding my breath until the last drop came out but worked fine! ☕
