Does hard start kit allow you to use eco idle? I have a Ryobi 2300 generator and a 6000btu ac it does not cool on eco idle but when I turn eco idle off it cools fine. Ended up plagiarizing your idea with home depot components to get to where I could cool tent since my AC is to big for your...

had to make adapter to get ac to cool tent correctly. Another member makes adapters but they wont fit the ac unit I have so I plagiarized his idea using components from home depot. 4" water heater flashing, 4" dryer vent, 4" Round irrigation drain cap, 12 ft solid corrugated drain line and good...

Thanks for the pic , was going to do something similar using Velcro or a template style adapter. please keep pics like this coming. work in progress. generator has blue tooth and AC has a remote. so sealing for efficiency is my last hurdle

Now that I have drain lines coming out of pan I am going to try placing it inside with vent going out side window. and drain lines exiting tent. will center ac over hinge inside tent. plan 2 is to mount on shelf outside window and use rainfly to seal around ac unit. need for it to get warm to...

Update drain pan has a rubber plug I used a barbed drip irrigation fitting to pierce it and attach 2ft drain lines for the condensation so tent wont get wet

I am out in So Cal so without AC the river and desert are pretty tough.so I bought a Ryobi 2300 watt generator and a GE 6000 btu window AC with remote.Questions I have are can I put AC in tent with exhaust coils of against side screen and just cover around it or does it have to be outside of...

A quick thanks to Kerry for making me aware of Kaboat. I now have a 396 Kaboat with the Sail kit and a 2.5 Suzuki four stroke I picked up for a thousand bucks lightly used. weighs like 40 lbs and is easy to move. I also have an 2016 outback but my back injury wont let me lift to roof of jeep...

I am a veteran of many Colorado river trips so I have lost an awning or two to monsoon winds. I would tie two sides to trailer and use two heavy fabric grocery bags full of dirt for weights on outside corners. I believe the tent attachment would minimize the parachute effect. The tent attachment...

I bought that mattress for my smittybuilt RTT to improve mattress comfort. There is a reason its ratings are high it is friggin awesome. I do roll mine up though so I don't know how it folds. But if you open valves 15 min prior to folding I cant see it being a problem. I wanted mine to use...

I was going to mount an arb 2500 awning to my trailered roof top tent but it would mount at 6 feet and I believe that is to low for the tent room that adds to it and I am looking to add additional space. I have a 10x10 straight leg EZ UP in trailer already. I saw a tent that attaches to it and...

Thank You very much for article answered all my remaining questions. And gave me my game plan run Coleman and but unleaded as a back up. Then clean stove and lantern after effectiveness wanes. I was born and grew up in San Diego moved north for better Fire Department job retiring soon and moving...

I bought a Qt. of Coleman fuel will fill and test. As I am writing this I realize a Qt. will fill both lantern and stove but I will have no spare fuel. DUH

I have not used white gas in over 40 years so I cant remember how long it lasts, I remember carrying can just not if I used it every trip

if lantern and stove were full before departing would the MSR cover 3 days of camping?
