    RedArc Manager 30 help

    Reach out to Redarc, they are really good at responding. If I remember correctly the original Redarc BMS30 was issued in the US under the Australian spec BMS30 and there were problems with low temperature issues, Redarc now has a specific North America version for the BMS30. I believe they were...

    Eco Flow Delta Compatibility

    The Integrated Inverter is for AC output only. There doesn't appear to be an easy way to simply add more battery capacity to your Delta 1300. While not adding capacity, you next best bet is to invest in maximum solar input, buy a generator to recharge you Delta, and to get power to it while...

    DC/DC Charger for both Tow Vehicle and Trailer

    Redarc makes a low powered dc/dc trailer charger I believe it's 12A, but hooks into the 7 pin trailering wire. I would suggest running two in that if you want to solar or shore charge your trailer when it's not connected to your tow vehicle the second dc/dc charger would make all of that easy.

    Colorado ZR2 Bison Build

    The RLD bolts into the bedrails, you'll have to drill six holes. I figure I can just replace the plastic rail caps if I take it off. If you have a diesel, Chevy makes an exhaust tip relocation kit: https://www.chevrolet.com/performance-parts/vehicle-upgrades/colorado/exhaust I have a diesel...

    Colorado ZR2 Bison Build

    I ended up going with the RLD Designs topper being that it's stainless steel in the fewest pieces and the highest dynamic weight. I ordered mine in Feb 2021 and didn't get it until Late August / Early September 2021. I've been very happy with it in terms of build quality and looks. I wouldn't...

    Fridge only or fridge/freezer?

    Freezer really comes into play on your use cases. For a long trip it allows freezing of food that would spoil/degrade in the fridge for the length of time. This is if you don't have access to grocery stores and the like. With summers bringing in 100+ degree weather, it's really nice to bring...

    Garmin InReach Messenger Expands Availability of Sat Coms?

    It seems to me that it's an answer to the Zoleo Satellite Communicator. Garmin's is a 100 dollars more and has a mini screen, smaller and lighter. The one plus I see with the Zoleo, is Zoleo allows you to suspend your service for $4.00 a month, which you can un-suspend immediately in the phone app.

    2023 GMC Canyon AT4X

    It's 61K for the Canyon AT4X First Edition, which includes a winch, safari bar, rock rails, and bed bars, my guess is 5K less for the standard Canyon AT4X

    New Bronco

    Congrats, I know it's been a long to coming, hoping it will be worth it to you. I'm a December 2020 reservation holder, so know I have a long wait ahead.

    Colorado ZR2 Bison Build

    I suggest also looking and asking at zr2zone and coloradofans as many of us there have your specific vehicle. I would suggest researching the static load limits (weight) and dynamic load limits on the topper you are looking for. Materials usually range from Fiberglass, Aluminum and Stainless...

    Schutt Industries - Xventure Owners

    My understanding with the older XV-2's is that the water tanks have a large baffle between them and the pump only pulls from one of them. I have the same issue with mine and was told the newer tanks have a smaller baffle.

    Fridge Location in Truck with open bed?

    The only fridge made for open bed is the ARB Elements 63qt. I mounted a Alu-Cab fridge tilt/slide and used the ARB Elements for over 3 years and it has served me well through dust, mud, and downpours of rain. This location on top of the decked drawers made a tilt necessary so I didn't...

    Thoughts on RLD design truck cap/canopy?

    I do still like it. If I was to reorder I wouldn't get the platform rack and the load bars that came with it. There is nothing standard about the platform and you can't mount things to the side of the rack (unless you craft custom holders). I'm taking them off and will install a Rhino Rack on...

    Let’s see your solar/fridge/slide out setup

    I mounted an Alu-Cab fridge slide that tilts onto my decked drawer system: The tilt function is essential for me in accessing the food, for one it doesn't require getting up on the tailgate and two when the rooftop tent is on the bed rack I don't have to scrunch opening and accessing the...

    New Bronco

    I'm blame Ford and the delay of getting all the reservation holders their vehicles for the downgrade of this topic into a political discussion.

    Garmin Tread Overland Edition - any users yet?

    That I understand, but considering it's only a "software" issue, when a customer has your previous product and has invested in the accessories and steps up to your new product that costs twice as much, it would be great customer service to have backwards compatibility with accessories you still...

    Garmin Tread Overland Edition - any users yet?

    Garmin did finally release cameras for the Tread Overland. Of course you have to buy new cameras, as the cameras that work with the Overlander, don't work with the Tread.
