    Check Your Battleborn Positive Terminal!

    Their stock is basically worthless now vs during the pandemic. It's not just the problematic business model.

    Check Your Battleborn Positive Terminal!

    I don't have personal experience with BB or their products, however I'd been looking to make the switch to LiFePO4 batteries for some time and the dilemma was always centered around cost vs quality vs brand trust. I could never justify spending the money for BB or Dakota Lithium batteries but I...

    Check Your Battleborn Positive Terminal!

    One battery damaged at some point and exhibiting the issue, ok... Multiple batteries, many with no signs of damage (such as a slanted terminal, for whatever reason), all exhibiting the same problem? This isn't "user error." This is a bad design. Will added a pinned comment to the 2nd video...

    Off Grid Trailers

    For anyone that has to store their OGT outside (we went from a 3-car garage down to 2), this cover fits like a glove and is cheaper than what OGT was offering (not sure where their accessory shop went, perhaps they shut it down?) - https://kapscomoto.com/products/knox_2nd_gen_r_pod_cover

    Off Grid Trailers

    Not sure if you're set on Redarc, but I'm running the Victron 18A isolated DC-DC charger in mine - - and it's worked great.

    BFGoodrich KO3 coming soon!

    If you liked the A/T3W (I loved mine as well) then look at the A/T4W that just came out, lots of nice improvements over the A/T3W, IMO.

    Multi power in with 12VDC and 120VAC out

    They only work with expansion batteries they provide, no way to connect generic batteries or standard LiFePO4 batteries, unfortunately.

    Colorado slide in camper build

    The frame-bending issues, at least with the Colorado/Canyon, have been due to extremely hard hits while carrying or towing a load off-road. Sometimes it happens because someone isn't using common-sense and just sends it, other times it's just someone being caught out by a sudden whoop/dip...

    Multi power in with 12VDC and 120VAC out

    EcoFlow offers battery expansion options as does Jackery, they have portable power stations that can have multiple extra batteries connected to increase the total battery capacity by quite a bit.

    New CHEAP satellite messenger!

    I'm just watching that video right now and he touched on something already mentioned in this thread; No actual phone number assigned to the device or your account. The only way to have 2-way communication is via the Bullitt app, otherwise it's send-only. With both the Zoleo and inReach the...

    Overkill Campers

    I'm not suggesting the design is worthless, but I don't see it being valuable (worth a lot of money, enough to allow Overkill to satisfy their debts/commitments) either. I'm also not sure I'd want to be seen as a company that couldn't design something just as good or better than the product...

    Overkill Campers

    The design is only valuable if it's patented, IMO. If it's not patented then there's nothing stopping another company from copying it and/or improving it and selling products based on it. I don't know what Overkill's current financial liabilities are, but I suspect they are far in excess of...

    Overkill Campers

    Never heard of Moby1 and what I've read about Four Leaf Clover it's not surprising, seemed like another poorly-run business venture by someone that knew how to build trailers but had no idea how to run a business. My point is that well-run companies are able to traverse temporary issues much...

    Overkill Campers

    Amazing how none of the problems were their fault, from the defects and failure to properly address them, to taking money to pay for other peoples' builds, to the poor attitude of the owner(s) towards anyone that questioned their practices...simply amazing how every niche trailer company went...

    TetonX Hybrid

    He must lay on his side with his knees bent. Which is fine, but all depends on the person. I couldn't sleep on anything shorter than a proper queen, I've tried. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
