The one I got is product B08MQ7HMPY and the title is "HKY PD 100W 96W 90W 87W 70W 67W 61W USB C Laptop Car Charger DC 12V-24V Travel Adapter for 2022 2021 MacBook Pro 16"15"14",Mac Air 13",Surface Pro 9 8/Book 3 2,Lenovo Thankpad Yoga,Dell XPS Latitude". Gotta love search-optimized titles...
works for me; I haven't done a long-enough test with my MacBook Pro to see how long it would take to charge, but with a DeWalt USB-C-to-20V adapter plugged in, I was able to charge the DeWalt batteries faster than a 4A charger on an inverter (and anything faster than the 4A charger makes the...
From a technical standpoint, it also needs to be able to do FM and AM modes on appropriate bands, and you'd probably need to have a moderately complicated setup to have appropriate antennae—I've never seen an antenna tuned for CB, 2m and 70cm.
A CB wired to a CB antenna along with a dual-band...
Maybe I'm overlooking something, but wouldn't a brand-new truck without actual manufacturer's paperwork ring alarm bells?
As in, I'd find it odd to have a truck that otherwise seemed new previously titled in Georgia rather than coming with an MSO. I don't know if Arizona does things...
They also have drawer sets that can be accessible while in the middle of a stack. You give up the dust and weather sealing, but I'm a fan for tool storage. I haven't tried them in a camper / trailer / van setup, but I think the combination of sizes would work pretty well for a lot of uses. They...
This year's hunting seasons:

While I get the preference for dispersed camping, I'd suggest sticking to either well established dispersed sites or defined campgrounds if your trip overlaps with deer rifle...
If you're not stepping on a licensed frequency or otherwise being a **************, the chance of anything happening in terms of enforcement would seem to be close to zero. My guess is that the only place we could see enforcement is where either (a) someone is being a ************** or (b) the local Motorola...
One of the biggest benefits of a two-way device is being able to summon non-emergency help before an unfortunate situation turns into an emergent one. (or, more likely, in that middle stage where your stupidity has started nipping at **************** but hasn't sunk its teeth in just yet)
My personal...
My two cents: the monthly cost to have a basic tracking plan with an InReach is under $30/month, whereas last I looked, trying to have satellite voice comms will run you a lot more. The devices aren't cheap, but they're not terribly expensive, and it's nice insurance to have (particularly if you...
It's worth noting that in addition to restricting the frequencies in the settings with CHIRP, you can also program frequencies with duplex set to 'none' to avoid accidentally keying and transmitting on a frequency you're monitoring. I'd assume you can do so through the on-radio interface, too.
Hmm...does that mean that I need to hurry up and buy a radio if I want one that can monitor local public-safety frequencies as well as operate on ham frequencies?
Back when I was younger and dumber, I spent a lot of time wrenching on high-mileage New England cars and trucks with crappy tools. I would have saved hundreds of dollars and a fair bit of bloodshed had I just bought decent stuff to begin with (breaking a socket or wrench on a stubborn bolt...
Ah. So I was missing something. And that reminds me that I need to retorque those mounting bolts.
I'm 100% convinced my bumper is overbuilt; in hindsight, I wish I had managed to find a similar one in aluminum rather than plate steel. The mounting I'm less sure about.
Speaking of aftermarket bumpers, mine arrived with grade-five bolts for mounting, three or four on each side (mount positioned perpendicular to the bumper, so it would be a straight shear test if the bumper were pulled directly forward). I'd have to do the math again to be sure if it were three...
