The apparent lower running of costs of EVs coming from fewer moving parts would suggest running 24/7 would work better than ICE vehicles. Battery swaps would allow that. Container locks and one big plug would seem simple enough on something truck sized at least. In through the radiator grill to...

That sounded appealing but reading their website the SMS option seems to just be to send an "I'm ok" message to a predetermined person as part of an occasional test, not actually converse via text?

Heresy!! Banana all day long. What three words does make it difficult to determine a compass bearing from My Fat Ass to Your Beer Fridge. EU Garmins and guides from what i've seen use WGS84 but others as options in the devices.

I was looking into an Inreach but read that you are restricted to one message every maybe fifteen minutes roughly speaking? Maybe not officially but that is what the system actually allows so it doesn't get overwhelmed. So one sent every now and again and it's a good thing. Try to converse in an...

Years ago I drove an electric Crown forklift with a big heavy lead acid battery. You could get about six or seven hours out of it, then left on charge until my next shift sixteen hours later. If one of them didn't get charged for some reason there was a spare battery sitting on a kind of pump...

I have I think five pairs of the Fjallraven trousers that were about £200 each thinking they would last. Currently at about four years old and the two most worn pairs have worn through the "megatough" G1000 and been patched. The others are going the same way, knees mostly. But these are zip off...

FYI The Separett has the bucket on a kind of turntable. There's a simple mechanism that lifts and rotates the bucket maybe a thirtieth of a revolution each time it gets sat on for distribution purposes :)

Separett loos don't have stirrers at all. I think wether the compost process starts or not is a moot point. The seperation of solid from liquid, plus solids on an organic moisture absorbing base to spread that moisture out and allow it to evaporate (sometimes helped by an extractor fan possibly)...

Hiya! I've seen a seats only Mog bus towing a big trailer with bunks in Japanese style minimalist living accommodation for paying travellers. Or random pic as a different idea from Pirate 4x4

The slight floor drop in Sitecs build may be enough to briefly hop in if needed without a ladder? Or just a small folding step like caravans (cough) use? I did want a custom tank to fill the available space and with built in steps but ended up with a new take off plain 450 litre one. The custom...

Just to add a little to Sitecs wise comments, our old camper had a ladder that was light enough to sit on the floor inside the door to quickly and easily reach in, get, set up and climb in even when someone was parked up tight to us which they often did. We could also easily reach out from...

Deals this week on items called a solar generator by the manufacturer made me have another look. Some of the smaller ones will only accept one 100W panel. Bigger ones like 1500Wh could take 500W of solar but have quite small recharging current allowable from the mains which removes one of the...

On some charging controllers you can pick how many amps you want to charge a lithium bank with. So if your campsite only guarantees 5amps, or you go with a 1000W genny etc you dial down or up how much of what's available you use.

There's also Gaslow for refillable gas bottles. That's fine if staying in the EU and where you can refill. My gas locker can take two 12 ish kg bottles, one of which may well end up being refillable the other local if required or just external storage in that half if not. But for cooking only...

snipped I put two drains in the shower tray on opposing corners :)

With a different name I didn't notice sorry. It's also called a Fire Stryker I believe.

Hi Joe I quite agree the system in that Mog camper was not installed correctly even though the engine section was. That doesn't affect the advice given to me since regarding my own current build by an Eberspacher engineer which I am personally following. I don't dispute you have had zero...

Has anyone seen or tried the Fire Safety Stick? It doesn't look like it weighs so not much of a projectile but emits for up to 100 seconds depending on model. No servicing, no shelf life. Andrew St Pierre White recommended on his channel but no experience myself. For instance-...

A Separett toilet has swappable containers to give more volume. Very good lids. Will the shower drain and plumbing go straight down through the floor? Or will the tray be elevated to allow pipes to go underneath? How will you fix the toilet down to the wet shower tray (if that's what you meant?)...

One with beer in?
