Rivian Adventure Network - Centerville, Tx

Someone mentioned on Facebook that RAN is open to other brands. So I came here to experiment myself. NOPE! At least not!

It’s ok, as Madisonville and Huntsville EA stations are near by.

Are those Rivian chargers not operational? The red ones?

I tried. It said no to non-Rivian EV. But Rivian does mention eventually will open to public, right now it’s free to Rivian EV only. I suppose they have to figure out way to charge with mobile app and credit card on file of mobile app.
 
I recommend the PlugShare app. Charging stations are rated based on user experiences and feedback. I found this very helpful when planning my recent Midwest-Florida road trip.
