  1. FYI: Tesla Supercharges will not work with Rivians until officially announced as compatible.

    This is the confirmation I’ve been waiting for. Thank you. If it was CAN traffic it would be easier to sniff. Power line communication is trickier. Soon enough, I suppose!
  2. Fort Myers [Electrify America] Charge Station Not Operational Yet

    Status Unknown is the case for all EA stations in Rivian’s nav. Their APIs do not communicate. I personally have not seen an EA station that is not yet commissioned but is shown in the nav. Possible that the site is being upgraded? I always check at least the EA app, if not also PlugShare to...
  3. Rivian Access to Tesla Superchargers Begins Spring 2024, According to Tesla

    Supposing you had an adapter from Ford, Lectron or A2Z, I wonder if the authorization process is such that you could trick the SC into charging your non Ford. I suspect the adapter hardware is identical to the MagicDock, which of course works with all CCS vehicles. Plug and Charge would not...
  4. Peregrine spotted in Newport Beach?!

    I like all the funky wraps. Imagine it would get old though as a daily. My loaner had Michigan plates, FWIW.
  5. EV Dave - ranting about Rivian's navigation/DC fast charging software

    If you cancel a trip while you are mid charge and then select your ultimate destination again, it will indicate that you need to drive to then "arrive" at the charger at which you are already charging. I've had this happen several times. Its a mild annoyance.
  6. Ford EVs won't have to use Tesla app to supercharge

    I wonder how seamless this will be. I think a major advantage for Tesla right now is the fact they own the entire ecosystem--no external APIs required. Hopefully they work out the kinks such that 3rd party session authentication is smooth and doesn't muddle the otherwise simple interaction with...
  7. V4 Magic Docks Activated in Atlanta GA, Columbia SC and Prattville AL

    Does anyone have visual proof that these are open? I’ve been watching the v4s commissioned in the Fall and have been waiting for Magic Dock activation. Sparks, NV is still showing unavailable on the Tesla app.
  8. Charging a Rivian from various outlets (tried 120v through the 14-50 mobile charger too)

    I see. Sounds like you travel in a similar style to me. I almost always have an assortment of SOOW cables, NEMA 14-50 receptacles, breakers and plugs. Can be very useful if you are willing to spend the time creating the adapter. I will be on the lookout for outlets on the base of light posts...
  9. Charging a Rivian from various outlets (tried 120v through the 14-50 mobile charger too)

    Interesting, thanks for the info. Was this an ad hoc cable you made specific to one visit to a particular hotel? Or have you found these types of sockets on lamp posts regularly?
  10. Ghetto method of powering the house with a Rivian

    If you do this, you need to install a generator input outlet, a dedicated Rivian backfeed breaker (two pole in your case with the shorted phases) and an interlock such that both the Rivian and grid cannot concurrently be connected to your load center. While this does work, there are rules that...
  11. My R1T won't accept a charge from RAN chargers

    Ya, this sounds like it is a bank issue, not a Rivian issue. Hi from SB, by the way!
  12. MILESTONES ARE COOL! 35k ARTNYBLUE!!! LET’sGO!!!

    I'm not even top 10 on ElectraFi leader board any longer. I have some driving to do to catch up!
