Rivian wall charger

[El_Greco]

Hey all, just got my R1S a few days ago. First time using my wall charger it was putting out 11.5kw up to about 83%, then kicked down to 7kw the rest of the way to 100% (which I’ve read is to be expected).
But 2nd time using the charger (today), started at 18% battery and it’s only putting out 7kw.
Thoughts on that?

Can you return it still? I’d highly recommend

The wall connectors no matter what brand are very sensitive to your utility line voltage. For example mine was only able to output 9kw in the heat this week when line voltage was 219 volts. Normally runs between 10 and 11 kw when line voltage is at 229 level. Any chance of that occurring at your location ?

Actually, I got in with Rivian chat throug the app. Apparently, my car was set to only accept 30 amps. I was able to into the settings and bump it up to 48.
