Engel dont have a low voltage disconnect so it'll run on any length of wire pretty much.. ARB's internal LVD throws a ******** fit and turns fridges off prematurely on any substantial length of cabling unless you grossly oversize the wiring. Ive got an ARB and a Englel, I wont be buying anymore...

USB-C is way popular, pretty much all my stuff is USB-C now days.. This is about the biggest and best you'll get right now, rumor has it they are working on a 100w version: https://www.usbgear.com/CG-PD60PPS.html Never seen a Carling Passthrough tho, sorry.. your not gonna find a high power...

just more design thoughts on water system, think I'mna do beer taps for the water faucets.. for starters, seems like the Colorado thing to do here right? seriously tho I can get nice bulkhead fittings for passing through any thickness, all stainless steel, protective dirt caps, growler fillers...

Love my D710G, but here in Colorado I dont really use 70cm all that much.. back country is pretty much all 2m, sure there's alot of 70cm stuff here in front range but I work that from home and not really much from the vehicle.. I'm usually either operating 2m on both sides for APRS and Local...

Looks like Dexter Torsions can be ordered w/5x5 Jeep Bolt Pattern: https://bendtrailers.com/dexter-10-3500lb-torflex-axle/ For the big tires you probably want the 45 down angle and the max 3in lift.

insulation is to keep heat out, mylar reflectix stops Infrared/Radiant heat transfer rather well, which is most direct sunlight or sitting in a vehicle.. its the same stuff and reason you put a window shade in when you park in the summer... but beyond that its insulation is rather minimal, its...

I like my Dexter Torsions, I was originally looking at a Timbren Silent Ride for an upgrade from a tandem leaf spring.. but I ended up getting a trailer fitted w/dexters and they been great.

FWIW, my 6yro AWD German 3L Turbo Diesel gets ~30mpg avg @ 75mph, ~24mpg in city w/AT's, and about ~15mpg avg towing my enclosed toy hauler (~6klb) through the mountains.. however, its been modified a lil bit. I'm not gonna be buying a turbo 4 for any towing needs anytime soon.. I like where...

We managed to get camping there no problemo during the eclipse w/no reservations thanks to the trailer, something unthinkable before w/a tent.. we rolled in late at night and the only place to stay was a $500/night Shallet.. so we pulled into a boat parking lot, crawled into the camper and slept...

YMMV, but here's my $200 Portable Swamp Cooler inside a >101F trailer, after just a couple mins of running.. using 238W total through the inverter and running entirely off solar power. This setup is kicking that portable AC's rear end.. the video verkstad posted said its wattage when hardwired...

Most Projectors are actually DC, they just got an AC/DC power brick.. I've been thinking about adding one to my trailer and a retracting screen since it'd be smaller/lighter and cheaper than a DC TV.. didnt have much problem finding one w/DC voltage when I was looking at em, heck you can even...

sounds about right, also add in length of any ground wiring you might have.. usually when I'm doing a grounding upgrade on a vehicle I run a strap directly from the battery to a starter bolt, and then another strap from a bolt on the accessory frame to the chassis, but there's more than one...

ah your plumbing it back in to a hot tap, yeah that is kinda an issue if you got potable and non potable water coming outta the same spigot... I suppose its fine but might put a label/sticker on something warning/reminding you that the hot side is undrinkable.

If your going to use a DC-DC charger back in the trailer you don't gotta go to 1/0 first of all, whatever supports the max load of the DC charger at those lengths is fine.. if you dont use a DC charger you petty much have to use ridiculous sized wiring despite the rather small loads because ANY...

double check, some of those mini bathroom/shower faucets those might not be potable like a kitchen sink faucet.. I'm doing an external faucet right now, that will supply to a LP On Demand hot water heater as well as our main water supply.. I'm having to resort to stainless steel brewing taps...

There are none, but you dont need potable hot water anyhow.. if your cooking with it, it dont needa be hot.. and if your drinking hot tea/coffee, get a Kettle or something.. Hot Water is mostly for doing the dishes and taking showers. Also be weary if your using outdoor faucets/hookups, most of...

I had Rangers take empty rubbermaids out of the back of my Jeep while I was backpacking and threatened to cite me when I went and picked em up, because there was no way to prove they never had food stored in em even though they were just our dry boxes for all our bedding sitting in basecamp.. I...

I almost bought a Forest River, backed off when I started researching em and looking at em closely.. then I found an IntechRV Flyer and its like night/day difference in quality..

Made these two screens for the Propex heater, Stainless Steel #10 Wire Mesh, with two stainless steel washers pop-riveted together after using a C-Clamp to press em together.. this should stop any road debris, wasps, and most importantly my son from shoving rocks in here.. yes, I found a bunch...

This company was about the only good thing I found after going to all the RV/Boating shows here trying to find what I was looking for: https://www.flycraftusa.com/ The frame you could store on the roof and use it kinda like a roofrack to attach more stuff onto mebe.. it meets most of my...
