    Roaming North America in a 17 foot camper - Newfoundland

    Excellent info and link, thanks guys! I did have a follow-up question, 18mpg with towing is awesome - What is your range on that truck on a full tank - 600 miles? I only have a best-case 300 mile range (14mpg mixed) and cannot carry jerry cans without making a rack or something, so just...

    Battery Monitoring budget alternative

    Thanks @john61ct. There is a provision to use up to a 600A external shunt. The large metal screw terminals are provided for that purpose. Here are the FCC teardown photos:

    Roaming North America in a 17 foot camper - Newfoundland

    Hey guys - Thank you very much for posting, great photos. We are planning to do the same route in mid-August. I had a few questions I hope you won't mind answering: - How's the weather and the bugs? Ride reports from last year suggest lots of black flies etc. - Can you camp pretty much...

    Battery Monitoring budget alternative

    I have been looking for a good way to monitor the single battery in my 100 series LC and after quick research on google, I came to the conclusion that getting a quality one that accurately shows SoC and amp-hours consumed is going to be more expensive than expected. Then I came across this small...

    For the record he got back to me the next day of my post above. I passed on it due to the high shipping cost. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

    We don't use it for drinking water, except maybe in an emergency we haven't had yet.

    Gas or propane what do you like better?

    I'm in the same boat, wanting to switch to a single fuel for cooking. We have used a $20 Asian-store butane burner over the past 3 years and like it for its convenience, but I've decided that its too bulky (for my setup) and not good enough in cold/high altitude. After some research I feel that...

    Meet the "Hitch Hotel"

    Hi Geremy, Thank you for chiming in. To which video are you referring when you say it puts to rest the questions discussed above, and you don't need to add any further details? The one on the Kickstarter page, or is there another one which shows all the due diligence you did before making the...

    Meet the "Hitch Hotel"

    The thing is, following just the tow vehicle's tongue weight rating is not going to be enough. Tongue weight is concentrated at the tow ball, which sits probably 2-3" behind the rear bumper. This hitch hotel monstrosity is 35" long, which means the CG is at least 17" from its front edge, and...

    Meet the "Hitch Hotel"

    Clueless hipsters backing this will be in for a rude shock when their Subaru's rear shock punches through the shock tower the first instant they hit a large sized pothole. 340lbs of weight on the hitch receiver? Hmmmm. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

    lightweight awning options?

    Yakima awning. If I'm not mistaken its half the weight of ARB and other similar awnings. https://www.rei.com/product/115108/yakima-slimshady-awning-shelter

    Any more feedback on the oztrail one? Its the only one with external pockets for odds and ends separate from the main compartment.

    WTB: DeLorme InReach (non-Garmin) Cradle/Mount

    If you look in the classifieds there's a guy selling mounts for the Baofeng radios. I re-bent the side ears to fit and drilled a couple of small holes in the backplate to retain the belt clip on the Inreach. It works like it was meant for it. Haven't really needed to power it since the battery...

    Cheap tricks and solutions - product modifications, DIY, or repurposed items- not on-sale items

    I use a ATV sprayer for running water. It's a 10 gallon integrated water system for about $100. I made a frame out of 6061-T6 aluminum that fits in place of the 40% split rear seat. The top is a plywood platform with tiedowns for our bags, which are Mountainsmith modular hauler cubes. I removed...
