    Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    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...

    Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    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...

    Long term battery vampire drain test (47 days and going)

    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...

    Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    I'm jealous of you guys... 51 Euro cents per kwh here. So it's almost as much as US gas prices to operate my R1T!

    You should only lose about 3-4% per week based on my shipping mode tests, assuming you have the latest update.

    2023.14.0 Software Update NICE! New Gear Guard App w/ Drive Cam

    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.

    2023.14.0 Software Update NICE! New Gear Guard App w/ Drive Cam

    Supposedly, but has anyone here actually received the new app? I have iPhone and Android and have not gotten any Rivian app updates yet in either.

    2023.14.0 Software Update NICE! New Gear Guard App w/ Drive Cam

    Did you have to update your phone's Rivian app first? I checked my phone today but no app update. (Android)

    We need AirPlay, not CarPlay

    According to the latest Q&A with Wassym, there will be a way to stream to the big screen in the next update. Not sure about the details though..

    When will Rivian admit that avoiding AA/Carplay is not about providing "better" UX?

    Sounds like a great strategy by Apple. Why build their own car when they can slowly take over all the other cars in the world?

    Long term battery vampire drain test (47 days and going)

    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

    Shipping mode. And charge it up to 70 or 85 prior.

    Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    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...

    Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    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...

    I have an update as well!! See my other reply: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/dead-12v-batteries.13653/page-2#post-312725

    Dead 12v batteries

    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...

    Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    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...

    Dead 12v batteries

    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...
