Tri-Color badge installation - 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime XSE

[@19ladyfriend96]

Just got a RAV4 Prime a few weeks ago and I love the ideas I’m getting from you channel to add some personal touches!

[@EVDude]

Thanks for watching 😁

Thumbs up, I installed mine 2 weeks ago. I also installed yellow film over the fogs.

Hmmm….meh…coming from owning BMWs, it’s like putting the M badge on a non-M car…I guess it’s more of a question than a comment…I think it does look good and adds a little flair to the all black grill, but do TRD Toyota owners look down on those who add TRD logos, etc… to their non TRD Toyota? My last Toyota was a 1986 Corolla 5speed 4 door, so no TRD model available!!! LOL

Hi! Quick question, I have Onboard 3.3KW charger on my Prime. I was wondering if it would work on 240V outlet?

[@EVDude]

Yes it will. If you use a level 2 charger with 240V and 16A it'll be faster than 120V. Instead of 12 hours on 120V it'll be around 4.5 hours on 240V

[@paulbarrette2557]

What does the badge represent?

[@EVDude]

The tricolor (Yellow orange red) refers to the TRD (Toyota Racing Development) times. It used to be displayed on Toyota's racing trucks in the 80s O believe. Now there are different colors to match everyone's preferences.

Unfortunately my ‘22 XLE has a different grill so it’s going to be a little bit more work

Hi there. How to use the Plug AC120v on (rav4 prime), mine isn’t working. Can you give me some tips Thankyou in advance :)

[@EVDude]

It's really hard to help without knowing the symptoms. What doesn't work? When you plug it in nothing happens?

[@MykArd]

Urely guessing here, since I had problems charging mine at first. In my case, the circuit with the 120v outlet I was using also powered several other things. I could start charging, but the circuit breaker would trip within 5 minutes. I solved the problem by having an electrician install a new dedicated 20A , 120v circuit for a new outlet in my garage. At the same time, I got a new 50A, 240v circuit installed for level 2 charging (once I get a level 2 charger). There is one other option though with no expense. You can reduce the charge rate (amps) pulled by the car. I believe instructions for this adjustment can be found in the owner’s manual. It will mean longer charging times though.

Look good :-)

[@EVDude]

Thank you!

[@r4pluginsuomi191]

Looks good...maybe need some loctite on those nuts?

[@EVDude]

Great suggestion, thank you! I think I might do that 😁

[@r4pluginsuomi191]

@@EVDude make sure to use blue and not red!
