  1. Charging at Tesla charges

    They almost always neck you down once you reach 70%, in my experience. And then it becomes a level 2 charger basically. However, it can be dependent upon how busy the station is and its location too. Keep in mind Tesla's system is based on their cars "touring" and stopping more often for...
  2. Charging at Tesla charges

    I'm not sure if this is still pertinent information for this thread, but in January 2025 I took a 1500 mile trip from Seattle to Western BC in my loaded R1S with roof rack, 270 awning, aftermarket rock sliders, and a mess of skis. To be honest, I have NEVER had an issue using a Tesla super...
  3. Any updates on receiving the Tesla charging adapter?

    Received mine 2-3 wks ago, about 1-2 wks after they contacted me via app. Have used it at Tesla stations in Seattle and Burlington, WA area...worked like a charm. Incendently, sold an R1S to a Tesla owner while charging. He was on the fence and I let him pour over mine and ask questions and...
  4. "New" 12V Battery Jump Start process update from Rivian

    I just provided as “additional information for interested parties.” I do not endorse or suggest this is a viable method. In addition, I am vaguely familiar with the basic premise of YouTube videos and I would guess that the “comments section” for this video would have a slew a of both...
  5. "New" 12V Battery Jump Start process update from Rivian

    Hello all, I'm going to add a video link to this thread, that was made by the DCE gents who did that Optima branded Rivian battery remote charger trailer thingy (and test vehicle), and their rig finally experience the dead 12V syndrome. (Note: I have no affiliation with them, but found the...
  6. First magicdock Supercharger in AZ

    A nice additional tool in the charging quiver. Personally, for now, I think they are working out great, just not rolling out conversions fast enough. So far the ones that I ave used in WA state have never seen more than 20% Tesla occupancy while charging. You paying a premium…IMO park and...
  7. Sending address from app to Rivian nav?

    OK. So I’ve been struggling with this in a very specific element. And please note I’m not interested in rants about how Rivian should fix this, I’m just providing one possible work around. please also note that manually putting in an address into the nav art of the Rivian app (iPhone) works...
  8. Guys, I have a ? problem

    You could just constantly keep the frunk filled with ice (and beer) and then the cold air would transfer to the hood and viola...kitty go find new sleeping spot! :cool:
  9. Woohoo ? Supercharge Magicdock

    Thanks for confirming...I've put a Peninsula loop on my winter beach trip plans. With the Rivian chargers in Aberdeen, you can loop and do a little off-roading too boot!
  10. V4 Tesla Supercharger looks more user friendly + magic dock connector and display (spotted photos)

    I found it embedded into the Tesla app, when I signed up and loaded my car info, their map filtered, or showed you where you could currently charge with a "non Tesla vehicle".
  11. V4 Tesla Supercharger looks more user friendly + magic dock connector and display (spotted photos)

    If you have used the few current V3's (I'm assuming they are V3's) that are out there, then you can see that the plugs in those pictures appear to have the CCS adaptor also embedded, so I would say yes...they wouldn't go backwards, since they are opening these super chargers up to non-Tesla's...
  12. Hitch-mount Winch installed (with pics)

    Someone has to forge ahead on the trail when there is a new game to learn. I like that you are making a go at it. Here is a good link to wench related option, with R1S/R1T in mind. https://www.novawinch.com/news/evs-and-winches-rivian-and-more The overall weight of the wench should also be a...
