  1. 12 Volt Demons Caught Up With The Count

    I imagine The Count has much higher "vampire" drain than the rest of us. I second UnsungZero's comment. I recommend The Count start using a battery tender/desulfator now to increase the odds of surviving 32 days without a dead battery. I use a 2 amp version connected through my OBDII port and...
  2. How to get the Rivian app?

    I'm still seeing it in the Play Store. Here's a browser link Rivian App.
  3. Rivian Assistant Not Working - Not responding to commands after "Hey Rivian"

    Did you go through the initialization steps in Settings after installing? I had a similar issue until I read the instructions in the user manual.
  4. Rivian took over my Tesla Supercharging session and charged me more than double?

    You don't specifically say it in your post, so for clarification, did you press the "Start Charging" button in the Tesla app after selecting the station, and before plugging in? If not, then it defaults to Rivian control.
  5. Can’t send planned trip to car?

    For what it's worth, I tested sending a planned route from Google Maps, and this is still working. Of course you'll have to start over with your planning.
  6. Can’t send planned trip to car?

    I just tried this after verifying the car is awake and am getting the same error. This function has worked for me in the past so this is a new bug.
  7. Are There Alternatives to Rivian Level2 Charger?

    Here's a good place to start. EVSE review. I've been using a basic $320 Grizzl-e for 5 years and it's been an excellent, reliable charger. I got $150 of that purchase price back as a rebate from my electric utility. The charger is not internet connected, but Ive never needed that feature. The...
  8. Rivian supplied adapter for RAN NACS -> CCS1 check

    I have not yet been to a RAN with NACS plugs. Are the stalls marked so you can tell the type of plug as you pull in?
  9. KEY Fob Issues - Will Unlock / Lock but Not Open Truck or Hood - R1S Gen 1

    This is a long shot, but I've had the fob show up with a good battery in the keys page, but the battery was actually almost drained. You may try a battery replacement just to rule that out. I say this is a long shot because if the signal is strong enough for the doors, it should be for the frunk...
  10. Marathoning in our Dual Performance Max R1S: 360+mi Single Charge Range

    If "without stopping" means no stops charging or otherwise, a tip of my fedora to your bladder capacity. 😀
  11. lost small snake in seat back

    You might not get an answer until Monday, but what about contacting the National Zoo or local animal control for suggestions on luring out the snake? If anyone suggests releasing mice in the car, get another opinion. 🙂
  12. Rivian Roamer Plus and 12V Battery Health

    Thanks for the reply! I understand the issues with predictive analysis. Your concerns make sense.
  13. Rivian Roamer Plus and 12V Battery Health

    I am connecting through the OBDII port (2 amp trickle/desulfater) In a separate post from a few months ago I reported the significant reduction in vampire drain after the car was unused over 8 days. At least for me, this system works.
