    CVT Mt. Shasta RTT (extended with annex)

    Our family is growing and would like to get back into the ground tent game. Up for sale is our green Mt Shasta RTT (extended) with annex included. This was purchased from CVT and has been used roughly 30 nights. We loved this tent and it has treated us well in varying weather events from extreme...

    Correct sized charge controller?

    All great advice. I know that a 100W panel isn't going to keep (2) 100ah batteries completely charged, but this would only be to shore up my house battery as all of my (extra) accessories currently off of that battery. I oversized my batteries when building my system so I wouldn't have to go...

    Correct sized charge controller?

    I've been running my dual battery setup for almost a year at this point. The setup includes (2) 100 amp hour deep cycle group 31 batteries Blue sea ACR Blue sea fuse block with 100amp breaker Currently running my ARB50 fridge 24/7 and the setup hasn't skipped a beat. If I leave town for a...

    Critique my solar setup plan?

    There are hundreds of ways to get the job done. I recently built my system and it performed flawlessly on my 9 day tour around Lake Superior. I run an ARB 50 fridge set at 31*, and charged all my camera batteries, phone, go pro...etc from my house battery the entire trip. I decided to go with...

    What GA wire to bed of truck

    I won't be running any sort of major power out of the fuse block. Charging cell phones, camera batteries, low Watt LED camp lights, and my ARB50 fridge are all that I foresee at this point. Trying to keep my build pretty simple and not add items just for the sake of adding items as I've seen...

    What GA wire to bed of truck

    Went with a 100 amp resetable cooper breaker seen here: https://powerwerx.com/resettable-circuit-breaker-cooper-bussmann 10GA is probably overkill for what I'll be running... you have a recommendation on a more appropriate size GA to run?

    What GA wire to bed of truck

    Decided on a game plan: 2 new AGM deep cycle batteries (one as starter, one as house) Batteries will be isolated through a blue sea 500 amp ML ACR with in cab switch (not sure when I will get around to installing the switch) House battery will be connected to a 12 circuit fuse block with 100amp...

    What GA wire to bed of truck

    About ready to get my dual battery set up installed and I've come to a point where I am not sure if there is an advantage one way or another. I will be running my auxiliary fuse block (blue sea 12 circuit) off my house battery. That connection will be made by running 2GA between the two with a...

    Routing power cable to bed of truck

    Ah! Totally forgot about the drainage holes as they are under my bed mat. Took a look at lunch and that will most likely be the option I go with. Just need to drill it out slightly and should work.

    Routing power cable to bed of truck

    After a bit of research on the forum I feel as though I have a general idea of what I want to do when it comes to a dual battery system. The question I have is how do people normally get their power cables in the bed of their truck? I have a 2016 Tacoma with a shell on top and there doesn't...
