  1. Home Wall Charger

    It doesn't work that way. The EVSE tells the car what the maximum amperage available is. The car cannot try to pull 48 amps from a Grizzl-E set to max 40 amps.
  2. Home Wall Charger

    At 300 miles a month you will be 100% fine using the portable charger plugged into a regular outlet.
  3. Looks like Rivian cancelled an R2 customer pickup because the paint didn't match (Half Moon Grey bodywork vs El Cap fascia)

    "Tom! Get me the President on the phone. We're surrendering our position in Cuba."
  4. Looking for best and most cost effective garage charger

    Fine but limited and overpriced. The same thing costs like $200 on Amazon and the $300 Tesla has tons of available adapters.
  5. Looking for best and most cost effective garage charger

    You're not understanding. The EVSE and car have a whole handshake they have to do regarding supply amps, protocol, ac vs DC, etc. That's the incompatible part. Absolutely nothing to do with wifi or the Internet or smart features.
  6. Looking for best and most cost effective garage charger

    The problem is the protocol between the charger and the car, since the older Tesla chargers were made before NACS was really finalized. Nothing to do with smart features.
  7. Looking for best and most cost effective garage charger

    These are pretty tough to buy right now. Tesla is only selling to Tesla owners, and they're OOS most other places. Plus the price recently went up by like $85. Just get an Emporia. Easy to install, $379 refurbished directly from the manufacturer. The Lectron Nexus seems like a solid option at...
  8. Home Wall Charger

    The older Tesla chargers that were made before NACS was the standard are not compatible with Rivians.
  9. Home Wall Charger

    There's no ambiguity or anything here. The Tesla Wall Connector is compatible with all NACS vehicles. Throw a J1772 adapter on it and it will work fine with almost all EVs. The Tesla Universal Wall Connector is basically the regular Wall Connector with a built in J1772 adapter.
  10. Home Wall Charger

    It's the NACS version. It's not Tesla only.
  11. Next R2 Hardware Wishlist

    We have it in my wife's Ascent. It's great for two things: one, when I drive the car and don't want to move the mirror, or two, when the back is loaded up and the mirror is useless.
  12. R2 cargo area air flow for dogs

    My Crosstrek doesn't have rear vents at all. Shockingly, no one has died back there yet.
  13. R2 cargo area air flow for dogs

    A roof shade and ceramic tint on the back windows completely eliminates any potential problem.
  14. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats 📊

    I wonder if they verify the lease docs lol
  15. Next R2 Software Update (2026.24) is Big! Garage Door Opener, Pet Comfort Mode, Gear Guard, Launch Mode, WiFi Hotspot & More

    That's super weird. Registration should stay in the car. It's required to produce during a traffic stop, and if someone borrows your car they may be in a pickle if they can't find it. The registration should stay in the car, along with your proof of insurance which also has your address on it.
  16. Next R2 Hardware Wishlist

    1) Door handles with sensors so that it can unlock when you grab the handle, instead of unlocking when you happen to be near the car. My Subaru does this and it's perfect. 2) Air vents with manual controls. This does not need to be a touchscreen item. 3) A dedicated volume knob.
  17. Coast to coast race: Model Y vs R2 (ABRP simulation)

    Not at 80 mph. The Model Y is a much smaller, more aerodynamic vehicle. The tradeoff is that it has far less ground clearance and inteiror space than the R2. The R2 seems to make some efficiency gains in the battery and motor, but the Model Y makes up for it in aerodynamics at highway speed.
  18. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats 📊

    Website says 5.79% I think.
  19. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats 📊

    The small number of orders in New England, NY, and NJ is so weird to me.
