Speaking of DC-AC-DC... Why not run the fridge off AC when the invertor is running? Check the AC amps and see if that is possible. The ARB has an auto switch over that will make the AC priority when both AC and DC are powering the fridge. Might allow your G31 to get a better charge without a...

Mil-Spec as in the Maximum Gear Camelbak HAWG? Black?

Something to consider with the exchange a tank places is that they are only 3/4 filled, 15# in a 20# tank. They do this to keep the price down. If you need to swap an old expired tired tank they might be a good choice but if you are calculating burn rate/usage at a 20# tank size you might come...

My local mechanic told me years ago that they break quite often when we were talking one day. I went home and removed them from all my vehicles. I only run factory rims and nothing super special for tires so I wasn't worried about theft. I am also not in a city that may have wheel theft issues...

At first glance when I had seen it before it looked like a good idea. What concerns me is that RTTs are designed to be horizontal so that the cover sheds the rain. I suppose if you know the wx is going to be good and live in an arid area it would be fine. Living in the East I would be concerned...

I picked up the 60W on clearance sale at OK4WD. I have a 26W one too so I link them both in to the PLB 40. The Overland Solar Bugout 120 is around $600 or so, it's 120W. Nothing is cheap unfortunately. Build your collection up slowly over time, then you'll wonder why you have so much stuff...

I have a PowerFilm solar R-60. It comes with the cigar 12V socket that you can plug in to. Just plug the 12V cord in to that and you'll be fine. Works fine for me. https://www.powerfilmsolar.com/products/rollable-solar-panels/60-watt-rollable-solar-panel

I've been hoping for them to have the Truma also. The frost protection seems like a good option too. I haven't seen the FWC water heater in-depth but I wonder if they put a winterizing bypass in or do you need to fill the 6 gal heater with antifreeze to winterize it? The all in one unit seems to...

Nice looking set up. GLWS. If you don't sell before October there is the Roof Top Tent Rally @ James River State Park in VA. Might be able to get some interest there, it's about 3hrs from where you are.

Check out aluminet shade cloth. It's reflective and a mesh that lets air flow through it. Breathes better than a tarp.

Believe it or not the alu-cab.com website has finally been updated... Still looking for where they hid the full sized truck canopies and Khaya...Rin???

Been using the inReach Explorer+ for several years now and happy with it. The BT connection is great for maps and texting. The Explorer+ is a pain to text with until you try using gloves on the phone, then the Explorer is the way to go as it has old fashioned buttons... Customer service has been...

Solid APRS rugged handheld radio, Yaesu VX-8DR with the attached GPS unit. You will have to search around as it is no longer made unfortunately. Runner up would be the FT-2DR by Yaesu. Yes there is a screen but it is recessed a bit to protect it compared to the Kenwoods. Kenwoods are great but...

I still like the NL battery systems. The split charge and the PPP along with the remote monitor/controller. Dead starter battery? Just hit the connect button. I don't think anything is 100% reliable any more, BlueSea or NL or any other, but overall I have been happy with the NL products for what...

When it does the "heat disconnect" it will not join the batteries, the solenoid is most likely overheated. It works later fine. As for the 5 min disconnect, I am familiar with that from running the PPP. The aux battery has had more capacity than the main so the BMS does not see it as the Aux is...

I have an ARE CX with the OTR finish on it. Overall I like it better than the painted ones as I don't need to worry about dropping RTT spring bars or anything else on it. What I don't like is the lack of quality that ARE now has. My first one that I bought years ago was fine. The new one leaks...

I had the NL PPP in my 2009 Silverado and had no problems. In the Spring I ditched the truck and got a 2018 K3500. Installed the NL split charge with a spare group 48 under the hood. The GM has the fuel efficient power management BS that drops the alternator when the batter is charged like the...

I see there is more info on the often elusive Khaya camper. Living with Khaya has been posted and seems to be a bit different than what I had seen at Expo East last year. New additional fold down upstairs for the bed besides the main bed, electrics have moved to the other side compartment, some...
