    Crazy Thought: Using high-end Lithium Bicycle Batteries for your "camping" power supply?

    Yes, quite a bit more money than a vehicular AGM. However, I like the idea that it is multi functional. We mostly camp/travel solo and are not pulling the Jeep behind Casa so much anymore. I always bring a Mt.bike along to do a "little exploring" around our camps. But in the case of us getting...

    Crazy Thought: Using high-end Lithium Bicycle Batteries for your "camping" power supply?

    I'm talking "small rig" camping... Charge 2 at a time while driving and use one in the afternoon after making camp for exploring on your Ebike, then the other for camp once it gets dark. Here is the one on my prototype bike: 60V 20ah (with a DC/DC transformer or inverter should supply enough...

    Volvo C304 TGB13 6x6 "BreadBox" Poptop Van Thing

    OM605 with a mechanical pump??? Did Menken sell you the pump? I have an OM602 DE2.9LA in my Jeep Scrambler and with the help of a really good pump house made my Bosch CE pump mechanical. Runs much better on the high sulfur Mexican diesel.

    The Oshkosh P-19 (Project Dingo)

    I sure will! And wish you the best of luck! You know this forum is about people building up their rigs and going exploring in them... Not broken somewhere (hopefully not really remote like I've experienced in my youth) and waiting for some "vintage" exotic large $x$ part to be "found" in some...

    The Oshkosh P-19 (Project Dingo)

    First off, Please forgive my negativity... Before you start your truck project I think you should go "ReFi" your house and get right around $100K in cash, then stop by the local liquor store and get a large bottle of tequila & 12 pac of Pacificos, then head home. Once at home, set the beach...

    Pultrusions - where to buy?

    THAT IS BIG DOG! Just like you and your father have been since you have moved over to North America! People that are too cheap to buy it for what you are willing to sell it for are just... Too cheap!

    Pultrusions - where to buy?

    Those are manufactures! I'd wouldn't be surprised at all that they ignore you. I dealt with them on an industrial design project that potentially would have used 1000's of linear feet. Just the test prototypes took several hundred feet and ended up being a flop because my clients could not "wrap...

    https://www.strongwell.com/ https://www.tencom.com/?gclid=CMHgiK-5yc4CFYFofgodXTYDwg https://fiberr.com.tr/en/grp-profiles/ Regardless of where you get it, be sure to have a shop vacuum set up to your saw, drill press, mill so that the "chips" are immediately sucked away AND where a heavy...

    LMTV 4x4 expo build

    Just a thought... You may be better off financially to just find a dissatisfied owner/ builder of a Stewart & Stevenson that has gone through the process and is willing to "get out from under it" for less money than you can complete your box for. Sorry to "bum your high" but LMTV's make...

    I Just Built my First Ebike.

    750 watts is the legal max in the USA and I believe 500 max for Europe! We are talking about 11X times that here! Of course these components ARE INTENDED FOR OFF-ROAD USE ONLY in Baja California, Mexico AND NOT during the months that the Blue Whales are breeding! ;)

    I Just Built my First Ebike.

    5500 watts! I'm going to the local bike shop tomorrow and ordering a pair of new Continental tires "wide, but more gravel".

    1998 Mercedes Benz Actros 2040 4x4 Expedition Rig - Anyone else

    Gosh, I hope you are right! My big camper Casa Azul has been "non-op" for the last couple of years and I have received "love" letters from DMV basically telling me there is no way in hell Casa will ever be registered in the state again... So I am on your team, however I'll bet you a crisp...
