Wow. I applaud the ingenuity. I don't get the price vs. weight. If the thing is really carbon fiber and justifies the price, how did it come in >100lbs heavier than the biggest James Baroud tent? Solar is not lightweight I suppose.
I will be watching how this evolves with interest...
Count my family in as happy with JB. We did have a quality problem on the first tent we received from them - good customer service and they immediately replaced the tent, and it's been awesome for 2.5 years since.
So according to the Q&A on Amazon for the BC-35, the camera has a “flip” setting - but I don’t see that in the bc-35 manual online. If this is the case, problem solved!
REI now has the gps units, and I just received a 20% off coupon - so should be able to get this thing for $140 off. However...
I'm very interested in your findings. My understanding is their camera that works with it is intended for backwards-facing video, so if you try to use it forward-facing it will be mirror-image to what is really in front of you. Early reviews said that there was no way to flip the video to...
Really wish they’d sort out being able to use the camera as front-facing instead of rear-only... that would be enough to push me over the $700 edge to buy one of these things.
I run the trim rings when not on a trip. I take them off for a trip, as it is tedious to take all the retaining bolts out in inclement weather in the dirt, and easy to lose a fastner to the environment. I had to buy extra hardware from AEV because of the stupid plastic washers.
I also take...
Is the lower power setting still too bright to use in traffic at night? Are you running 2 of the same beam pattern?
Considering a pair these lights to mount on my 18 PW’s ARB bumper.
I bought a Grand Raid in 2018, and after a month I had a warranty issue. I received excellent customer service to remedy the problem, which ultimately included a replacement tent. The second tent has worked flawlessly for 14 months, and my family really enjoys using it.
There's always room for a PW build thread... and I'm completely jealous of your 360 cameras, I'd settle just for one in the front of my '18... I guess I'll have to get creative!
We have the big Baroud currently, but with my little guy growing it's getting pretty tight for the 3 of us - especially given wifey is a side-sleeper, 3-pillow-minimum kind of gal. I love how fast it sets up and goes down, but I think we're at the point either next year or the year after we...
I have the 2.0m awning with tunnel, and a Grand Raid XXL tent. Also the room enclosure. Overall, my family has been happy with this setup.
We have had a few “learnings” along the way:
Several times we’ve had the awning poles stuck in deployed position and couldn’t get them collapsed. This...
I have those trim rings too, but I’ve taken to leaving them off most of the time for two reasons:
1) if you have a flat on the trail, it sucks to take all those little screws out, and you’ll definitely lose one or at least one of their plastic washers
2) if you happen to have any shop change...
