Rivian Camp speaker does not work

[Dasoss]

Dumb question but just came to me - does Gen 2 still have the charging "port" for a speaker? Like, behind the drawer?

Yep

I took mine out a while ago, but just put it back in today. The main panel is fading though.

I haven't used mine in maybe a year. Took it out and it worked perfectly.

Been using mine as Bluetooth speaker for my bedroom tv through Google tv.

I dont know if others have experienced this, but charging in the vehicle I found the best thing is to also check that the speaker is 'locked' in. You can control this from the settings on infotainment screen. When I was using it consistently during a construction project, I had same issue with it seeming to not charge while in vehicle. I think if it doesnt "lock", naturally it might not have the necessary connection to charge.

But also echo everyone else on here, charge outside of vehicle and have had to constantly forget and repair.

I plugged mine in and was able to lock it in from the console and I did hear a click. However, is there a way to tell when it’s charged or do you pull it out and look at the actual speaker panel on the device itself?

The only way to know it's charge is to hit the light button on the camp speaker itself. The different colors mean different charge levels.

"Check charge level: press the Lantern button x2 • Green = 75%+, Amber = 35% to 75%, Red = <34% "

Mine is back to thinking it's full charged (when plugged into a USB charger), but as soon as I unplug it, it shuts off, so it won't take a charge because it thinks it's fully charged, but is apparently dead. Cant seem to reset it to get it to take a charge again...very frustrating, and Rivian wants $400+ to look at it because the warranty is only 2 years, and my truck is a 23. I can go buy a JBL for half that, and I know it will work consistently without issue!

Seems to be working fine. I’m 75% charged at the moment and when I removed it from the dock, once paired, it connected to my phone.

There used to be a charge indicator showing the speaker battery % on the dock screen, but they removed it in a firmware update a couple years ago. I can't fathom why, but I still miss it.
