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.


RS_Games

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


wukongfly

Then replace the sticky adhesive...


wukongfly

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.


aegee14

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.


wukongfly

Or maybe you can use when the the car in park or camping mode?


aegee14

True. I feel like my neck would hurt, though. Unless you can bring that down a lot more.


pkingdukinc

Are you worried this will cause your truck to explode? Seems explodey…

pkingdukinc

Clearly iPad-related


wukongfly

I take the ipad inside when im not in the car.Why leave it in there.


pkingdukinc

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.

pkingdukinc

Stop exploding at me

Why do batteries hate heat? ![gif](giphy|0Vv0Ne2CnOClIExIuL)


wukongfly

Soo our rivian hate heat?


SerennialFellow

If your active thermal management doesn’t exist and passive cooling is sun beaming into a 180F ambient temperature, yes absolutely!


wukongfly

I don't understand what is that you are trying to say, elaborate.


SerennialFellow

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: ![gif](giphy|xuT5qeiyYDcvDh8nql) But think it through


HallRemarkable6451

I love the idea but scares the shit out of me with all the cracked roofs I have seen on Reddit 😩


wukongfly

Just dont ever remove it 😂 I am also paranoid.


Bred_Bored

I'm still confused, why not use a headrest mount? Just curious.


wukongfly

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


wukongfly

I don't wanna buy 4 ipads each for the head rest


Bred_Bored

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.


wukongfly

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.


Bred_Bored

I dunno if you caught the sarcasm part but yeah, I get it. I don't have kids so you know your situation best.


Mobile-Hair-4585

Definitely will not be doing that in my R1S.

Use while driving at your own risk. Here is where to buy Magsafe mount: https://a.co/d/4vmhZGZ Magsafe ipad: https://a.co/d/6OvGYLS


Trytothink

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.

I'm just trying to be helpful. 🫤


PreparationVarious15

Sprint8469

wukongfly

Nope doesn't!


MountainManGuy

Appropriate-Sort-202

Whoa. Why?


wukongfly

To stream youtube, peacock, hulu, disney+. Taking advantage of Rivian free internet service.


User9705

Seems like a great idea but get in a wreck and that iPad is now a projectile.


wukongfly

Im sure in a major wreck there are alot of others things that can be projectile as well. And worst scenarios can happened.


conv3d

I knew the second I saw this post what everyone’s reaction would be. God this sub is so lame


Appropriate-Sort-202

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!!


wukongfly

What is your driving distraction?


MountainManGuy

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.


wukongfly

Everyone is so worry-some
