    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    I'm more thinking everything has an equal and opposite reaction. When the magnetic coil moves the cone, the opposite force is imparted to the rest of the speaker. A rigidly mounted speaker will not dampen the motion of the cone as much as a floating speaker. The more accurately the cone moves...

    LOL yea I ignored that comment I guess but I think you are right. Funny how ignorant I can be until I discover things for myself. It just sounds less blaring now for some reason.

    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    Very nice. Thanks for adding content. I don't believe the rattle is coming from the speaker rattling against the grill. I should have clarified that. The speaker has foam around it already and was tight to the grill. I believe the weight of the speaker hanging from the grill causes the grill to...

    Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    I have to say, after the last update my Vampire Drain has been super low. Every morning I get in the car and it is at the same percentage as leaving it the night before. I drive familiar loops and the percentage drop during those loops is consistent with the mileage and efficiency so I don't...

    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    Short update. Still no rattle from that location and I think the music sound is better. I'm wondering if the speaker mounted so loosely muddied the sound and having it firmly anchored allows the driver to reproduce sound better.

    Charging on a 3 prong 240 outlet

    ^ What he said. Don't use an RV adapter with an EV and don't use and EV adapter with an RV. They look the same from the outside but are wired different. These adapters aren't really UL certified. Generally no UL certified device will come with a plug that can over load a circuit. An adapter...

    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    You can see in my pix I previously tried putting foam in the connection points as well buy it just didn't have a chance keeping the movement at bay. Often there are a combination of solutions and slightly different for everyone to get things quiet. I did mine as an experiment mostly. Had I known...

    That's the sound I had too. The speaker is tightly mounted to the grill where it bumps out. It doesn't seem sufficient to carry the weight of the speaker and when off road, it's truly terrible.

    Thanks for the additional ideas and solutions. I was not able to locate a fuse in either panel that was labeled anything resembling SRS airbag. If anyone knows which or where, please post up. Meanwhile, the accelerometers will be elsewhere on the body near the front clip. Be very cautious of...

    Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    Enough is enough. I can't stand the rattle so I took things more apart than I had before, which amounted to pulling up the grill and inserting some foam here and there. Here's a DIY on how to remove the grill at the windshield and help the rattle. It helps if you have trim removal tools and I...

    Tesla FSD Full Self Driving & Rivian ?

    I doubt it's Rivian they are in talks with. Rivian has no reason to toss their system. It works well enough and Rivian and Tesla aren't the best buddies despite the NACS thing.

    1st charge

    Get it wired for #6 THHN unless you have a main panel smaller than 100A. Even then you might consider going for larger wire even if you have to dial back the charger due to your load calc. It's harder to rewire later if you want to swap panels, chargers or breakers. About half your panel size...

    Rivian R1S questions.

    Those Contis look sick! How have they been working out for efficiency and noise? You said elsewhere they were better than the 20s.
