    Use ODB2 to Power Auxiliary Lights?

    I haven't seen anything about this on the Reddit sub, and I'm subscribed to all notifications. Is there a sub other than https://www.reddit.com/r/Rivian ?

    Are you a Rivian Club Member?

    Shockingly, Heylo appears to be a clone of Whatsapp, just slightly worse. The only real difference is the background color.

    Are you a Rivian Club Member?

    BTW, for anyone who is not a member and wants a discount on Overland Expo, just use this link and say you're a member. They have no way to check. https://overlandexpo.regfox.com/2025-overland-expo-west?registrants.source=RivianClubWPC Nearly all club discounts are fake.

    Are you a Rivian Club Member?

    Ours too. Membership not required. Curing the Whatsapp problem is one step. Wonder if they still censor based on exposing Rivian's problems?

    Rivian should offer the option to replace all carpet with all-weather material.

    LOL, turning an $80k luxury truck into a rubber matted 1965 base F100.

    Are you a Rivian Club Member?

    I was given a free membership and will let it lapse. I have seen zero benefit. Most of the discounts are available in many other ways, not exclusive to RCA. None of the events I've attended were exclusive to RCA, just all around Rivian or EV events. Their discussion "forum" is run on...

    Use ODB2 to Power Auxiliary Lights?

    The SAE spec for the OBD port is six amps. 96 watts of LED lighting is a HUGE amount! Crazy. I can't believe it uses that much. As reference, a generic household LED bulb is 9-11w. This is ten of those? WTF! There's nothing intrinsically wrong with using the OBD port for power, many safe...

    Comma AI/OpenPilot Update -- Watch it in Action on Gen1 Rivian (Video)

    It uses super strong magnets to keep it stable, and the arrangement is very impressive. No play or movement in any direction. The Chun mount seemed too light and shaky in the videos.

    GOAT Fabrication Rail Sliders *sneak peak*

    I have no idea what you're saying in response to what I said. The large rails would have saved your doors. The small ones maybe. The small ones on other vehicles show a lot of damage and have not been sufficient to save damage, so I got the larger ones.

    Comma AI/OpenPilot Update -- Watch it in Action on Gen1 Rivian (Video)

    Discord sucks hot sweaty balls. I just got my Janka CNC mount, it's really solid and well made. Completely happy. https://janquick.com/products/cross-glide-mag-mount-for-openpilot-comma3-3x-cnc-precision-type-c-wiring-harness-high-performance-materials?variant=41266500894823

    Starlink for Overlanding Connectivity

    Right, that's where the phone is at least 99% as good since you have power and protection. And my phone had far better battery than my last inReach because it was the marine unit with GPS, which chewed battery like crazy.

    Starlink for Overlanding Connectivity

    Exactly. I'm confident that I am covered when I have an iPhone on a boat or in a truck/Jeep. I am very slightly less covered if I'm on a motorcycle (some chance of breakage). I'm not as covered if I am out hunting, although I mitigate it with a hard case and spare battery. Add Starlink to...

    Starlink for Overlanding Connectivity

    This is why I got rid of inReach. This is awesome and has gotten even better now that you can also use the Starlink service directly on the phone. Makes the dedicated devices mostly obsolete.

    We all know how safe our R1* are in the real world. Now for the dark question....

    You can't say that here. Musk haters are gonna be on your ass soon.

    Starlink for Overlanding Connectivity

    I used to own an inReach and a SPOT; they have their place. I used them for motorcycle, Jeep and boat, adventures in the middle of nowhere. It has very low convenience due to limitations, but a pretty good safety factor for emergencies. Starlink is a whole different thing. If I can continue...

    Has anyone mounted an iPad on the front passenger side dash area?

    Yeah, that one, or the many like it. The twisting pressure on that small slot will be immense on every bump. I'm not sure what the better solution is for a really solid mount. For temp usage I would really be looking at the suction cups. Ugly but effective. Don't rule out a side window...

    Has anyone mounted an iPad on the front passenger side dash area?

    I've done a lot of mounts in a lot of cars for a lot of things, and no way would I hang an iPad on that mount above unless it had a third point of support. Meaning that the lower part is at least just pressed away from the dash, so there's no cantilever pressure.
