This is correct. Rivians are hardware capable of bidirectional charging, they’ll need a software update to implement it.

Does this happen to be a Chargepoint charger? Their power modules are 30kW, so that unit could be down to one functional power module.

I shaved off a few hours by always running the car down to the last couple miles and charging it to 100%.

This actually increased the amount of time spent charging. 10-60%, maybe 70% is the sweet spot on the EQB 300.

Here’s a plugshare report from the EV Range location in Kettleman City a couple hours ago (3pm-ish pacific time):

Life saver. There was a 15 + car line at the other station, with 4 chargers broken. This was available and I didn’t have to wait!

People do the strangest things for $15 of free electricity.

Stop and think about why this law was created in the first place. Local businesses don’t want to be shut out of an enormous customer base. This isn’t likely to change anytime soon.

More than offset by the lack of state and federal fuel taxes for most drivers.

The tax credit has a big impact. The Tesla price cuts have had a big impact.

Used vehicles have returned to a normal depreciation curve now that covid related supply issues have abated.

That’s probably 50-60% of total miles covered by electricity for many people.

Call them. It probably requires closing the account.

You’ll definitely get less range, plan on half or less. With a teardrop you’ll probably do a bit better.

Charging with a trailer is hit or miss. If you’re lucky enough to be able to be selective about chargers along your route, you can minimize dropping the trailer.

I’m a Midwest (Omaha) CCS EV driver. Both our vehicles are CCS EVs.

The Tesla Superchargers seem to be very reliable and super easy to initiate charging (simply plug in). Locations tend to have more plugs but tend to be mostly along interstates.

CCS charging is far more varied in locations, station size, ease of payment, and general reliability.

Along the interstates, CCS charging can be fairly similar to SC charging. Well spaced locations with 4-8 chargers thanks to EA. At EA locations for vehicles that support Plug&Charge, even payment can be handled similarly (simply plug in).

Away from the interstates is where things are different. Tesla typically doesn’t have as much of a presence, particularly in the less populated Midwest states. CCS charging might only be 1 50kW charger, but that’s better than nothing when you need to charge.

I usually check Plugshare for the chargers I’ll use on a trip to see if people are having issues. Reliability has been good for me. Payment can be varied, but I’m adaptable.

The big thing is that charging is improving.

I just ran an Ioniq 5 versus an ID.4 on a 12.5hr drive in ABRP: 1hr 57 min of charging for the Ioniq 5, 3hr 34min for the ID.4. That’s significant.

It’s likely because your assumptions aren’t accurate.

There’s nothing in the picture indicating the genset will be used by the Hummer EV.

Recently saw a charger whose fee structure was per kWh, but had a minimum per minute that would be billed. So people whose charge rate had dropped below some point were being charged more.
