    Critique my solar charger/battery monitor setup?

    I see what you’re saying. I think the labels don’t correspond correctly because they are the little double breakers rather than the bigger singles the label is designed for.

    Critique my solar charger/battery monitor setup?

    I’m not sure I have the capacity entered into my Victron 712 correctly. From my googling: “The BMV will always interpret the capacity that you have entered as a 20h discharge capacity -“ I have 2 6v golf cart batteries, each one says 20hr discharge capacity is 215ah. My total ah’s are 215. Do...

    Also if anyone has any idea what the “Gen” breaker could be for, I can’t figure it out.

    Critique my solar charger/battery monitor setup?

    like so many others our summer plans were severely affected. I hadn’t paid much attention to the solar output lately. I for some reason assumed that with the trailer being plugged in that the factory converter was doing most of the battery charging. Guess I was wrong. The loads on the batteries...

    Change your security lug nuts.

    Those things are also a problem for your mechanic who has to dig through all your garbage and try to find the key to do your brake job. I think I eventually acquired a few but you’ll never have them all.

    Mobil 1 offers two oil filters for my 09 Edge

    I worked at jiffy lube 20 years ago and can tell you that sometimes it’s just the length of the filter that’s different. I remember the Chevy s10 trucks were goofy like that. According to the vin check on the computer some trucks should get the small “car” size oil filter and some should get the...

    Guess who's back!?! Atl-atl's K5 Blazer + Four Wheel Camper "The Crawlin Cabin" documentation thread!

    My grandpa used to pull his with his old diesel rabbit for summer long out of state road construction work.

    Spare tire smaller than the tires on the truck?

    I’d try to fit a 37 or close to it. If you’re on a road trip and have to drive around on a 32” while looking for a 37” is gonna ruin your plans.

    Inexpensive battery banks, any out there?

    I’ve had two golf cart batteries in my travel trailer for the last three years. Got them at batteries plus. They live an easy life and I’ve never had to add water to them. I could if I needed to. Not all batteries are “refillable”. If you go with golf cart batteries make sure you get 6v not 8v...
