  1. Removal of frunk tub (front trunk): DIY how-to & pics

    I guess my point is, you only would be taxing the batteries themselves if you were trying to run the Winch while the truck is not powered on. When the truck is on, you would instead be drawing from the DC-DC converter, just as the batteries themselves are. If you put the winch on its own circuit...
  2. Removal of frunk tub (front trunk): DIY how-to & pics

    Are you sure youā€™d need an additional battery? I suppose if you wanted to operate the winch while the HV system is offline, maybe, but when the truck is ā€œonā€ (aka, after youā€™ve pressed the brake pedal), it should be using the DC-DC converter to bear the load, no? Rivianā€˜s configuration is such...
  3. SE Michigan Owners?

    Iā€™m in Ann Arbor. Cars & Coffee is this Saturday 7:30AM @ Zingermanā€™s Roadhouse!
  4. Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    Parking garage. I was on the 5th of 6 floors on an inside aisle (The structure can hold more than 5000 cars)
  5. Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    Just a datapoint: Parked my R1T in the DTW Big Blue Deck for 8 days. Left it at 71% SOC, got home late last night at 61% SOC. About 1.25% loss per day parked.
  6. 2023.6.2 OTA Update Released to Public

    Two bucks more for a Spotify ā€œduoā€ account which is specifically designed to accommodate a couple like this!
  7. 12 volt frunk power outlet is back! > in my just-delivered 2023 R1T (mid 18000 VIN)

    For mine, the wiring just was not present within the space behind the light, leading all the way out through the port where the wire comes in. Iā€™m going to have to see if I can keep following the wire back, but that would involve removing the Frunk tub, I think.
  8. It's a hybrid now... R1T charged at 5.2kw with portable generator and charging adapter

    Odds are one would need a different EVSE to work with this setup. I suspect this setup will lead to disappointment.
  9. Rivian is going to have to make a fridge

    I think Iā€™ll probably end up with option 3: Get the 20 to have as the daily driver cooler and icemaker for the camping trip, and bring a cooler that I can keep continually filled with ice. Maybe. TBD.
  10. Rivian is going to have to make a fridge

    Thank you for checking! Iā€™m bummed that about an inch on one dimension is keeping me from a 50% increase in volume from the ICECO 20. Now to think some thoughts about how Iā€™d like to stage things in my car for my camping trip.
  11. Hope V2H Vehicle to House is a priority for Rivian

    Iā€™m really hoping that there will be a marketed version of a ā€œPortable Generatorā€ that works on the CCS V2X standard. Iā€™d envision it as an inverter on wheels with 120VAC and 240VAC outlets on it, that plugs right into your CCS port on a standards-compliant vehicle. This would allow for you to...
  12. Rivian is going to have to make a fridge

    Does the JP30 fit into the Gear Tunnel?
  13. Rivian updates website: Two 12v outlets now (none in frunk) for R1T

    I checked today. No wiring harness there. I felt inside and followed the wire to where it exits the tub housing and nothing. Looks like Iā€™d have to remove the Frunk tub to see whatā€™s available to me if I want to retrofit an outlet into that space.
  14. Rivian updates website: Two 12v outlets now (none in frunk) for R1T

    Gonna have to pop my light and see if my wiring is there. I have a 15xxx VIN.
  15. Things They Don't Tell You (But Should) About 8 Step Purchase Process ....

    I tried reasoning with my Guide about the insurance requirement, too. I told them that Michigan state law has a specific form that insurers will issue same day thatā€™s good for 30 days of coverage. Then, insurance providers have that full 30 days to issue a full certificate of coverage thatā€™s...
  16. Smart Watch as a Key?

    Iā€™m really hoping that Rivian adopts the Apple CarKey protocol, even if they can only do it for NFC if the truck doesnā€™t have ultra-wideband hardware inside. Having NFC would still give you the Rivian Wristband experience with the phone and Apple Watch. Given that Rivian is a member...
  17. Rivian ABRP integration working (if you're motivated šŸ™‚)

    Iā€™m not sure I understand what this does for me vs just using the ABRP app on my phone while Iā€™m in the car. Is this about having a more accurate state of charge while underway?
