Hello my dudes!
Today, we're also officially announcing an extensively overhauled charging pad replacement - The OpenSourceEV Ultimate MagSafe Charging Pad V2! This new version has a ton of quality-of-life updates on our V1 unit that make this arguably the best Rivian wireless charging pad replacement on the market.
This kit is designed to be a complete replacement for the stock charging pad for the Rivian R1S and R1T. Its goal is to beautiful, reliable, and easy as pie to install. It uses 'MagSafe' pads that magnetically attach to the back of the phone or case, if equipped.
One of the signature features of the kit is the large, open, easy to access storage area in the front. The design allows two MagSafe pads to 'float' above it yet stay solid in place. The storage area is quite large -- much larger than the stock setup, or other options in the market. It's nearly 1/2 liter in size at 168mm wide x 94 long x 30mm tall.
The kit is also designed to be modular, giving you options as to colors, how many charging pads that you can install, how you can power those pads, and even the charging pads themselves. It comes in the following configurations:
V2 of this product brings many quality-of-life upgrades to the Ultimate kit. They are:
)
Pricing for these starts at only $39.95 and maxes out at $99.95 for the complete, toolless kit that is a all-in-one replacement for the OEM wireless "charger". All orders over $50 ship for free domestically and for only $9.95 to Canada.
These are available today in two different colors. There is no pre-register nonsense and we're able to produce a ship a large amount of these per week. There are lots of additional details (including pictures for each kit) available on the product page here: https://opensourceev.com/products/ultimate-magsafe-charging-pad-v2
The open-source 3D model for our version of this item will be available soon on our Printables.com page.

The kit is also designed to be modular, giving you options as to colors, how many charging pads that you can install, how you can power those pads, and even the charging pads themselves. It comes in the following configurations:
- Complete - This is our signature product. It is a wholesale replacement of the OEM charger. It includes all of the 3D printed parts, two high quality MagSafe charging pads made JSAUX, and our PowerKit to use the OEM connector like the OEM charging pad does.
- BYO Pads - This version is the same as the Complete kit, but does not include the charging pads. Folks tend to go for this kit when they want to install Apple OEM MagSafe charging pads instead of the JSAUX setup that we include with the Complete kit. This includes all of the 3D printed parts, the power kit, and additionally includes two USB-A to USB-C adapters, because you'll likely need them.
- Power Free - This version includes all of the 3D printed parts and JSAUX pads, but does not include the Power Kit. This kit would be purchased when you want to use the two USB-C ports inside of the center console to power the charging pads. It also costs less.
- Basic - This version includes just the 3D printed parts. You can purchase this if you already have charging pads and just want to use the two USB-C ports inside of the center console to power the charging pads.
V2 of this product brings many quality-of-life upgrades to the Ultimate kit. They are:
- An updated 3D printed shelf to reduce the amount of plastic showing, especially toward the front of the vehicle / charging area. This additionally provides slightly easier access to the storage area.
- An additional 3D printed element has been added to the design which sits right beneath the liner. This new part of the shelf provides a flat area for the liner to lie on, making it fit significantly better. It is taped in place using high-quality automotive tape (not glue) to ensure easy servicing and repairability if needed.
- Revised dimensions to ensure the 3D printed shelf matches the contours of the wood or vegan leather on the outside of the charging pad, and to positively snap the entire kit into place / hold it extremely tight.
- A new mounting location for the optional Power Kit (included in some configurations) It slides into place and is held there by the barrel connector it plugs into the vehicle with. There is also a cutout to make inserting the barrel connector easy.
- Tiedown points have been added to the underside of the shelf. These are sized perfectly to use the twisty-ties of the JSAUX charging pads and allows you to easily coil up the excess cabling and keep it out of the way.
Pricing for these starts at only $39.95 and maxes out at $99.95 for the complete, toolless kit that is a all-in-one replacement for the OEM wireless "charger". All orders over $50 ship for free domestically and for only $9.95 to Canada.
