thanks for letting me know. I'm still waiting to hear from Rivian if they're going to replace my Rivian portable charger, but in the meantime I'm seeing a bunch of new-in-box and used wallmount level 2 chargers that I'm considering installing (and then saving the portable charger for road...

I've got it. Truck is not even 2 years old

thanks for your thoughts! That fits with my impression of EVSEs, but did not really know. cheers

Hi all, on a separate thread "Solid red..." I have been posting about my troubles charging at home that started in the last month. I use the Rivian portable charger cable plugged into a NEMA 14-50 outlet. It appears to be a faulty Rivian portable charger cable, and I'm waiting to hear from...

All following this thread, it appears to be my portable charger. My friend's rivian portable charger works fine, while mine works intermittently. The electrician thought my system looks fine. Now waiting to hear from Rivian on whether they'll be sending a replacement or not. Cheers

Thanks for your suggestions. By the way, I am only able to charge on my friend's rivian portable charger since last night. Mine won't work, so it may simply be my portable charger.. It's like it's worn out from regular use since last fall when I got this system set up. Cheers

Thank you. Have asked an electrician with a similar set up at his house to pop by in the next day or two. I'll raise your ideas with him.

hi thanks, yes that is a 60A breaker for the 240v circuit. The wire to the 240v breaker is Teck 6/3. Thanks for your interest. I am able to charge again this morning on the 240v set at a low current (16A). We'll see how it goes, but I am planning on reaching out to an electrician today to get a...

yes thank you, I have played around with suspending the 'body', and I don't think this is my issue, but I will be mounting the 'body' on a screw

Thanks for your help... Today even charging off the 120v outlet stopped working. So I turned the power off, and I got to work opening things up and having a look. I checked neutral bars and no sharing of holes. I actually only have two circuits on the panel: the 120v and 240v circuits for...

thanks, will attempt to do all that

I also find it very difficult to lift up and close the tail gate. It's like there is some sort of dampened when you get it half closed

Thanks for the explanations. I found I could charge on the 240v plug at low current, but now not even at the lowest current. I have been charging on the 110v plug since yesterday. A couple days ago I tested a public level 2 charger, as well as a tesla DC charger, and all worked fine. Today I...

thanks for the idea, cheers

thanks for the idea, cheers

I have routinely tried to dial back current, though always after plugging in. I will see if I can do prior to plugging in, perhaps through the scheduling feature. Please explain your first suggestion of not plugging in vehicle until portable charger has completed its boot diag (diagnostic?)...

Have managed to charge all night on 110v. Today will test vehicle charging at a DC fast charger and a public AC level 2 charger. By the way, I have tried throttling down amps when charging my vehicle at home on 240v/ level 2.

I'm getting a charging error on my Rivian 2025 Large Pack R1T when trying to charge via my Rivian portable charger cable into an EV-rated NEMA 14-50 outlet powered by EG4 inverter and EG4 batteries (offgrid house). This is the second red charging light event in the last 2 weeks... A couple of...

Finally got videos done for my fall 2025 trip from Vancouver BC area to Thunder Bay ON and back with some observations, review, scenery, middle aged recreation, and good music interspersed. Will be posting further videos in the coming months on offgrid living and set up, living with and charging...

don't tell me I made a mistake buying Gen 1 :) k cheers, hopefully mine'll be sorted soon!
