    120v Air Compressor on Inverter

    As the title suggests, has anyone had any experience with this in place of a traditional 12v on board air set up? My thought is a small compressor on 120v is cheap and then you can have an inverter and compressor for the price of the compressor. You could then also take it with you to a 120v...

    Filling Cooler Walls with Spray Foam

    I have heard of a few people trying this second hand but haven't actually talked to the person who did it. Anyone on here ever try this? I would like a Yeti cooler but won't spend $350 on a cooler. I know they work well but I'm sure I'll break it or it will get stolen before it pays for...
