The only way you can have less drain is shipping mode. It will use about 0.9 kWh/day. I also have an R1T and M3LR and see the same results as you. I have 12v battery monitors hooked up to all the 12v batteries and have done extensive drain testing. GG will not double the usage, surprisingly...
If all the advertising is true, most of the residential electricity here is wind generated. Which boggles my mind why it is so expensive!! I guess they are selling the setup/build costs. Or using Ukraine as an excuse to bleed the public dry... I pay American prices for gasoline fortunately for...
Unfortunately I was not around for the reconnect, the shipper did it for me before I arrived. I assume there were no errors because they didn't tell me there were any. They followed my procedure exactly, which was:
1. Reconnect the HV contact switch plug (fireman's loop)
2. Reconnect the 12V...
Just checked and my iPhone is at 1.13.0 but android at 1.10.0. I was afraid of this, I have an S8 and it probably doesn't support the latest version... Thank you.
It was completely disconnected. The 12v batteries were disconnected at the negative terminals, and the HV contact switch was unplugged. So it was completely powered off during shipping. It only took ~19 days to ship but didn't lose any charge since it was manually disconnected
Thinking about it more, I think it would be difficult to achieve this for three reasons:
1. You'd have to time it so that you started charging both batteries at the same time and same voltage
2. You'd have to charge when the vehicle is not already charging the 12v's, i.e. after a 12V "charge...
I'm absolutely certain that if you kept the 12v's at 13v, the Rivian would be tricked into thinking they were full and would never switch on the inverter to charge them. It would still switch on if it sensed the PAAK nearby though. But if you were leaving it at home and going on a trip, you...
Final update! Shipping mode is about 2x better than normal drain. According to the trip meter (if it can be trusted), with calculating how many times it charged per day, each charge takes about 800 Wh (+/- 30). So if you are in shipping mode, you will lose around 800 Wh/day, and in non shipping...
Ok Step 1 of "turning off shipping mode" is bogus. When you arrive, put the vehicle in park? It is already in Park when in shipping mode!
Edit: I just checked on my truck today. It was in shipping mode for 120 hours, and it charged the 12v batteries once every day for 2 hours and 40 minutes...
Wish I could tell you but I don't have a clue! But I will try: I suppose if voltage dropped quickly after recharging rather than a steady linear decline, and also if the battery needs to be recharged very often, or the voltage drops below 12.3V. It seems to start charging when it reaches 12.3v...
