    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    I saw your rig on the instagram feed and had to check it out. A few questions: 1) Did you request the headliner in black or is that something Ursa Minor is just doing now? If so why? I didn't ask for it and was happily surprised by it. I think it looks really good! Maybe John has certain...

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    First off, a correction: I'm not the founder of American Adventurist, just a satisfied member! :sombrero: I answered most of your questions on that site, but will post up here, too, within the next few days. Have to head back to work now.

    Awnings and high winds?

    So Cal Teardrops has the "Scipio" Hannibal-type awning. I've ordered one for my J30.:sombrero: http://www.socalteardrops.com/options.php?cid=8&oid=71

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    Going with the idea of buy once, cry once, I went with the perimeter texture, both quarter rear windows, Thule rails only, So Cal Teardrops' Scipio awning and annex, 12 volt and USB ports upstairs, and the map pockets. The rails will be used to mount a Renogy 100w solar panel. I plan on going...

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    I believe the BunduAwn is between 10" and 12" tall when closed, which seems to me to be too bulky for a sleek setup like the J30.

    Looking for vehicle solar panel roof-mount ideas

    That is too cool! Do you know an ETA and approximate price point?

    sPOD and GenRight auxiliary fuel tank?

    I have a GenRight auxiliary fuel tank that uses a second OEM pump, controlled by, I'm told, a "double-throw, double-pole" switch. I'm thinking about getting an sPOD Source and wonder if I can use it to replace the switch. Has anyone done this? If not, could it work? It seems to me the switch...

    Renogy vs Grape Solar

    Thanks, Wicked, that's good to know. I'm not worried about the weight difference and will check out the durability differences before I decide.

    Awning for a J30 top

    That's a concern of mine, for sure. The J30 is nice and compact and I would prefer to keep it that way.

    Awning for a J30 top

    Saw the write-up on the BunduAwn on the main page and wondered if anyone has experience with this awning? It has quite a bit of coolness going on (no poles, lines, or stakes needed, huge coverage, etc.) and may take care of concerns about the Batwing/Foxwing-style awnings, but I don't see much...

    Renogy vs Grape Solar

    I'll be down that way in August and will want to talk things over with John. With luck, UMV's turn-around time will still be about 6 weeks. :sombrero:

    Renogy vs Grape Solar

    Ill be watching for your work, Dan. I'm hoping to order a J30 towards the end of August. At this time, I'm thinking of doing the same with aluminum strips, mounted to the rack, and leaving room for air beneath it. Something like this (likely only one 100w panel, though): Off topic (but what...

    Big custom camper sightings

    While the ER fan in the family slaved away at work today, others in the family came across this fine specimen at Carpinteria State Beach! Would've liked to have chatted with the owners, but alas, it wasn't meant to be.

    Renogy vs Grape Solar

    Not a done deal yet (hence the "if" in my last post), but looking more and more possible. I'd like to order by the end of the summer, if all goes right. :26_7_2:
