    I think my battery isolator crapped out... suggestions?

    Yea diodes are the cheap way of doing things, blue sea auto with manual is def my vote. Not only does the diode have a chance to fail, but it eats up a percentage of your charging power when it splits the power if I remember right.

    1st Solar System Reality Check

    Ken are you really advising this guy to buy a MPPT charge controller for his 100w single battery solar setup? lol it would cost more than everything else combined. Check out handy bobs page for some true no BS solar info. In the end you just need to figure out how much power everything is going...

    I think my battery isolator crapped out... suggestions?

    my guess would be by just checking the volts and or amps after the isolater and before it. If its not passing the current then its prob gone bad. I just gave up on isolators and relays and just wired my batteries together, but i had the same batteries. I figured that way it won't drain one...

    Attempt on El Capitan, Yosemite

    Looks like an exciting climb. most ive done is maybe 3 or 4 pitch climbs, I cant imagine 30! :Wow1: They are retrievable, way to expensive to leave behind. The first guy places them as he climbs and the second buy removes them as he comes up behind. The second guy is top roping( roped from...

    Isolator or just straight parallel???

    Ive had an isolator and a manual disconnect. Now I have 2 yellow tops in parallel and I like it the best. They have never let me down. Fridge has a auto shut off and other loads would take forever to drain them. Parallel is much better for you since your running a winch, help spread the load on...

    Testing solar with multimeter

    Its hard to get a real test of the solar panel with only volts. The 19v open is perfect. Its all voltage and no amp since its not flowing. The charge controller test has to many variables for me. I would have to know the State of the batteries, low or fully charged if using charge controller. Im...

    T-Mobile free text and data worldwide

    World wide GSM is the common tech. For some reason verizon went with CDMA something no one in the world uses. So for basic coverage Tmobile should work great considering what were asking.

    Yaesu 857D install

    If your not planning on transmitting just get a scanner, It scans much faster over every freq and if dirt cheap. The 857 is crazy expensive and only really used by Ham's that are really into it. Not to mention its a very bulky unit.

    CB or FRS?

    Its funny how everyone acts like Ham is a tough test. Its been almost 10 years since I got my ham license. All the answers are free and readily available online. I started memorizing the questions Wednesday and passed my test sat. I basically read through all 300 questions and answers 2 times...

    Self jump starting

    Like Rando said, just leave it on for a little while. You can buy many different sizes of jumper cables. Smaller wires just mean you have to wait a few minutes for the juice to travel, then crank it. Your setup will work in a pinch just fine. Thats why I buy quality Jumpers. Walmart has some...
