I have not. I've verified it puts out power on both phases, but have not loaded it down anywhere near its rating. I will say this, having a gen head that is too big for your motor won't hurt anything. Worst case is the engine can't keep up. If that happens I'll just downsize the circuit...
Hahahaa not trying to sneak anything by you. I picked up a diesel water heater from an old GL auction and plan to use that to heat coolant. Coolant will be passed through a normal marine/rv electric water heater that has a heat exchanger loop and will also be passed through PEX tubing on the...
Progress has been slow because I've been waiting for parts to come in. I've got most of the tubing put up for the snow melt system and about half of the interior is framed. Current project is installing windows and a door. I'll do another video once I get the door in.
Not a bad setup. I'd definitely like to move to LIPOs if/when I can find a good deal on them. Integrating a BAPU into that setup, you'll have to monitor system voltage unless you rig up some type of automatic start. Their system also seems to be missing a way to charge the battery with shore...
Couple reasons:
First, More power. The stock alternator on the BAPU is 3.5kW. The gen head I put on is 6kW.
Second, it works better with my planned power system architecture. I plan to use a Schneider Electric inverter/charger to power the box using some spare Hawkers in a 24V configuration...
I've been lurking for a while, but I feel it's finally time to introduce myself and my project. I'm Trey and last year I purchased a M1085 with the intention of building it into an expedition rig. Most of the time this past year has been spent getting the vehicle legal and in road worth...
