Made a few more mods. Replaced our two 100ah Battle Born batteries with two 300ah FSK-300HP's. Also added a Victron Cerbo GX, a GX Touch 70 remote display and a couple Ruuvi Tag Pro's to monitor outdoor and refrigerator temps.

Truck engine at idle, ambient temperature around 85F, let it charge for about 45 minutes and saw no change in output.

Not bad :cool:

The stand-alone VE.Smart network has worked flawlessly for 4 years now via the Victron iPhone app. All of the chargers look at the battery status via the BMV-712 and charge accordingly. I've looked at adding a Cebro GX, but I can't really justify any need for one.

PKYS. I've had great experiences with them. https://shop.pkys.com/

Just upgraded from a 30A DC-DC charger to the new Victron Orion XS 50A. Ran 1/0 from the truck battery to a set of power posts about 3’ from the charger in the trailer, then 4 AWG to the charger (which is the largest size wire it will accept). It’s pretty impressive how much more compact and...

Decided to up my fire extinguisher game a little. Fabricated a bracket out of some scrap material for mounting a 2.5 lb Amerex under the driver's seat and mounted a second in the bed on the Built Right panel. The mount allows for full seat adjustment and is under enough that my feet don't hit...

I sure wish I would've kept my '01......

Wait....who you calling old? Get off my lawn!

They do and they cost approximately $60. They also have several complaints due to rusting very fast.

Since the tailgate and tail lights are a prime target for thieves (two replacement OEM tail lights are approximately $3,500), I decide to mess around in the shop today and do a few things today to hopefully at least piss a thief off and make them work a little extra........ Made a guard out of...

I really like them, gives lots of options for attachment.

Finally undid a mod that has been bothering me since the day I did it originally...... I wanted additional lights up front, so I purchased a KD Fabworks light pod mounting kit for the front which allowed me to install Diode Dynamics SSC3 Pro and SSC2 Pro LED pods below the factory LED fog...

Takes signal from the front door speakers and processes it for the woofer signal to prevent the factory bass roll off at higher volumes.

I still wanted a little more on the low end for the stereo, so I decided to change the sub and build a new enclosure. Decided on an 8" Kicker L7 4 ohm DVC sub, which matches up well with my Rockford Fosgate R2-250X1 amp running in a 2 ohm configuration. Used 3/4" Birch for the box and a...

Picked up the Kicker KeyLOC and new harness from Sounds Good Stereo yesterday, those guys do amazing work and are great to work with. Don took the time to explain the set up and it was very straight forward and simple to install. My stereo now sounds great and it's how it should have sounded...

I really like the on-board Noco's. I've had the previous 2A charger on my 2500HD, Titan XD and then on the 350 and it did fine. Realized it was a little undersized for the current battery size so I jumped up to the new 5A model. It's physically a little larger, but I prefer the display lights...

I originally went with a 8" Fosgate P3SD4-8, 4 ohm DVC sub and JL C1-690x 6x9's in the front doors. I sealed the factory sub box port, lined the exterior with sound deadener and filled the box with poly-fil. The results were definitely better sound from the door speakers, but the sub made the...

Switched out my old 2A on-board Noco charger with a new 5A model. This big empty engine bay and nowhere to mount accessories.....so I opted to use 3m double sided tape and mount it to the top of the battery. Since this truck sits in the garage a lot I like to keep a charger on the battery to...

I wanted to get a release for the rear driver's side seat back, but I refuse to pay $35 + shipping for BuiltRight's release (or even $17 for an Amazon special). Now why do I want back there considering there's very little storage space you ask? Well.....simply because Ford didn't want me back...
