[R99]

Rivian has filed a patent that suggests that its batteries for fast-charging electric vehicle batteries at different voltages using a switch mechanism. The switch would allow for 800V charging on a 400V battery pack (or 900V on a 450V, etc)

If Rivian is able to pull this off it will speed up the charging process and make EVs less expensive.
