  1. Compared to the R2, what makes the Scout a compelling alternative?

    There is FREE L3 charging at Rasor Road through July 31. A bit warm right now but maybe worth a free trip. Could check out the hot spring down Zzyzx Road. https://powerstation.network/location/rasor-rd

  2. 12 Volt Demons Caught Up With The Count

    Seems like something changed. Anything in the update notes?

  3. Future of R1S?

    Click on the Dual-Max Silver and see what happens.

  4. 12 Volt Demons Caught Up With The Count

    I don't think the two just run in parallel. Do they? I thought one was for a separate system like maybe braking during a power failure. I understand the single battery vehicles have a capacitor to provide that emergency power.

  5. Using the Rivian portable charger with a generator

    No. Need a Neutral Ground bond. Bonding to the waterline or better direct to the home ground rod would be for if the generator was permanently installed as part of the home electric system. The primary home panel has a Neutral Ground bond.

  6. Are There Alternatives to Rivian Level2 Charger?

    Either is compatible with V2H connected to your Cybertruck. No other vehicles are compatible. Also need a gateway or Powerwall to make it work. https://www.tesla.com/powershare#install

  7. Are There Alternatives to Rivian Level2 Charger?

    So one wall Connector comes with an adapter. Still same unit and will charge all vehicles.

  8. 12 Volt Demons Caught Up With The Count

    I believe this is when Rivian increased the 12v charging voltage and was a bit high for Lithium. High voltage will trigger the lithium battery internal BMS to stop the charge. Vehicle is not expecting this and must cause an issue and fault message.

  9. Using the Rivian portable charger with a generator

    HD does not sell a bonding plug that I can find. Others that do are $10-$15 Some scrap #16 wire is fine. or a half watt 100k ohm resister will also work for most items.

  10. 12 Volt Demons Caught Up With The Count

    Maybe the battery is losing voltage too fast while at rest indicating the start of an internal short and needs replacement.

  11. Using the Rivian portable charger with a generator

    Does the bonding plug connect Neutral and Ground internally? Screw position looks like it was opened. As shown the Neutral is on the left and Ground on the bottom.

  12. Are There Alternatives to Rivian Level2 Charger?

    The Wall Connector is designed to be permanently mounted and will work with all vehicles. The Universal is designed for portable use although some use it everyday at home. I recommend the Wall Connector. Portable would be for an existing frequent destination where there is only an outlet...

  13. Rivians have poor quality?

    What is service? Mine just runs. Far better than the last three EVs I drove. Nothing against Tesla, I have not owned one to compare. I am trying to assume generation two has been improved and the report is mostly first generation.

  14. WTF Order Date Changed

    No screen shot? No email? Sorry did not happen. :cool:

  15. RJ on high $ collision repairs: "should never happen"

    Service mode battery reset starts about 5:20
