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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
Assembly and installation are incredibly easy and can be done without any tools at all (a butter knife is not a tool :))

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.

Doesn’t really match the Rivian interior. Would look better in Model 3. But glad to see people trying to do something different.

I assume the "Ultimate Charging Power Kit V2" works with this ok? Will it be in stock soon? Printed and happliy used your orignal. design from long ago (posted a "make" on your printables upload), still in service, though it does come slightly loose occasionally, likely because my cable arrangement needs to be better. But a better fit is enticing.. I already have the charging pads, and a printer. Thks

I'm sorry - can you rephrase this? Works with what?

Generally, items that worked with the V1 are forward compatible with the V2.

If I download your new design, once uploaded (Thanks), I think I'd like to use the existing power supply rather than usb cables.

Your design is awesome but the print lines are killing me so I'm looking at printing this myself with minimal print lines.

Can I buy just the power adapter?

The design is amazing, I printed it and followed the instructions and all works great!
I would definitely bought it if I had no access to a 3d printer.

I hear you. One can totally make these with smaller lines to make them less apparent. It's just not feasible if you want to produce a decent amount of them.

The USB power kit is here - https://opensourceev.com/products/ultimate-charging-power-kit-v2
We even sell just the cable, here: https://opensourceev.com/products/power-kit-wiring

The design is amazing, I printed it and followed the instructions and all works great!

This right here makes me so incredibly happy. It's the reason why we post all of the designs publicly.

Are you using a large nozzle? Maybe the lines are inside so not a big deal... By the time I buy the pucks the power adapter I'm more expensive than just buying the kit from you.

When do you expect to have these in stock?

Rob received my kit but when I plugged in the power kit I get no power. I think I received a faulty power adapter or bad wiring (wiring had a slit in it). I have emailed twice with no response. Can you please help me out?

Installed your charging pad last weekend and I love it. It replaces the unusable Rivian pad instead of putting an aftermarket pad on top of the Rivian pad and occupies one of the USB-C outlet.

I got my 2.1 pad today, but the wiring harness is a different connector from my Gen 2 R1S.
I’m not sure if I should start cutting wires and splicing it(thereby cutting off the OEM connector in the process) or if OpenSource EV may have sent me a version with the wrong connector. I’ve reached out to them already but am posting here in case anyone else has the same issue. @RWerksman

This looks like a running revision by Rivian as someone we were just contacted by a second person on it. I just responded to your email and I'll be updating the product listing shortly.
