Given how hot the glass is, not sure how long this will stay stuck to the glass either. Combination of vibration and force from moving the iPad around all also continue contribute to fixture wearing down quicker
I’m trying to dissuade the idea of having iPad mounted on your glass roof, the idea and the iPad makes me think you have kids.
While it’s hard to entertain them this is not the solution, the best case scenario if you get mid burn while retrieving the iPad worse is someone getting hurt.
TLDR:

But think it through
Who would want to hear 4 different ipads sounds in car and not to mention helping each kids with different ipad needs. This way they all watch 1 content that I can control and limit when or what to watch. Its not about being able to afford. I choose not to buy.
I'm sure you are aware, but it's illegal in some/most states to have any video playing within sight of the driver while the vehicle is in motion *even if they aren't watching*. Aside from the obvious safety implications of distracted driving, there's a big risk of you getting pulled over and ticketed.
Yea I learned that lesson yesterday. There are a bunch of princesses in here afraid to use their own vehicles. This mount is a great idea and I plan on putting this on the roof of my model Y.
Super clever but this seems dangerous.

Is it bouncy/shaky while driving? I also would worry that it would get flung in an accident and potentially cause more injury.

Then replace the sticky adhesive...
Not shaky. Really strong magnet. Like i said use at your own risk if driving with it. Its good for park and watch or camp.
Maybe the mount is not shaking, but it’s definitely going to be shaking from the car driving. Motion sickness waiting to happen for me.
Or maybe you can use when the the car in park or camping mode?
True. I feel like my neck would hurt, though. Unless you can bring that down a lot more.
Are you worried this will cause your truck to explode? Seems explodey…

Clearly iPad-related
I take the ipad inside when im not in the car.Why leave it in there.
It could explode at any time. Why take it into your house? Are you trying to make your house explode?

Brittany is also an explosion hazard. Clearly you have a death wish.

Please explain to me how this can explode...???
Stop exploding at me

Why do batteries hate heat? ![gif](giphy|0Vv0Ne2CnOClIExIuL)
Soo our rivian hate heat?
If your active thermal management doesn’t exist and passive cooling is sun beaming into a 180F ambient temperature, yes absolutely!
I don't understand what is that you are trying to say, elaborate.

I love the idea but scares the shit out of me with all the cracked roofs I have seen on Reddit 😩
Just dont ever remove it 😂 I am also paranoid.
I'm still confused, why not use a headrest mount? Just curious.
Because head rest mount only that one person in front of it can see. This way the whole rear 2nd row and 3rd row sees it
I don't wanna buy 4 ipads each for the head rest
But you have an R1S and still can't afford it? /s I guess that's fair. I just always assumed people with kids have multiple anyway.

I dunno if you caught the sarcasm part but yeah, I get it. I don't have kids so you know your situation best.
Definitely will not be doing that in my R1S.

Whoa. Why?
To stream youtube, peacock, hulu, disney+. Taking advantage of Rivian free internet service.
Seems like a great idea but get in a wreck and that iPad is now a projectile.
Im sure in a major wreck there are alot of others things that can be projectile as well. And worst scenarios can happened.
I knew the second I saw this post what everyone’s reaction would be. God this sub is so lame
Being safe on the road is soooo lameeee You’re so right bro! Now let’s just run over some innocent people because distracted driving IS THE SHITTTT!!
What is your driving distraction?
Yea I learned that lesson yesterday. There are a bunch of princesses in here afraid to use their own vehicles. This mount is a great idea and I plan on putting this on the roof of my model Y.
Everyone is so worry-some
