Need recommendations for a new charge controller/dc battery charger. Right now my current setup is a deep cycle battery charging from the alternator through a relay when the engine is on, then switches over to 100W solar using a Renogy 10A charge controller. This has been working fine for a...

Having trouble getting your RTT on top of the car by yourself? Then look no further. Made of the finest 2x4’s and carpet money can buy. I actually picked this up from another member on here a while ago and it worked perfectly for the times I needed to get the tent on by myself. The only...

This may be a basic question but I did a quick search of this forum but couldn't seem to find the answer. Can I run a solar controller off the main battery/alternator with a solar panel and have it charge my aux battery? Not at the same time, but if they were wired in with a switch is that...

Not mine, but a friend sent me this "For Sale. 99 Forester. Auto. 164k miles. Lifted. Well maintained. Runs Great. No Leaks. Just passed smog." I don't know much else about it, except wheels and tires are brand new, might be a Rallitek lift, and interior and exterior or immaculate...

That wants to show it off to a stranger? Preferably in the SGV/Pasadena/LA area. Or if you know of any stores that carry it or better yet, rents them. Iv'e always wanted a car top camper since i was a kid reading the old Popular Mechanics books, and lately the urge to buy a RTT has been...

Has anyone done an infrared conversion on their camera? If so, was it worth the cost, and what filter did you choose? How does it affect your style of shooting, i.e what types of scenes and or conditions are suitable for IR as opposed vs normal photograhpy. Thinking about converting my old...

This may be a dumb question, but how well do GPS's work in foreign countries? Is there a limitation to using them over there? I have an older Garmin GPS and am planning on taking it on a trip to China. Since I'll be in one of the small, non touristy areas where language is definitely going to...
