That is a pretty good one. I couldnt figure out the inverter output, it just gave amps, nice to see what its steady and surge outputs are...

I thought I had a specs sheet for Tune campers, that I could calculate the bed size for like 20 trucks. Unfortunately when I looked at the specs, they would be guesses, as they give different camper dimensions. Darn.

Tacoma short bed is 5ft. Long bed is 73.5", just over 6 ft. Width of other trucks may be different. It is the dimensions that are the issue. Never seen a comprehensive list of all truck bed widths and lengths. You could visit a bunch of websites and make one... That would be a great...

Hehe... you'll notice I carefully ppsted in the Mapping and Navigation forum, as OB is a mapping tool! Dat's my story and I'm sticking with it!

Anyone else notice this?

Oupes mega2 added as a good one.

Perfect for me! I pulled the rail caps off yesterday, 2021 Tacoma, and was staring at all the holes wondering how to seal it.

@Mules that really is a nice build. Really professional looking.

Yah, at first I felt bad for the advertiser and edited my post... now I just check here everyday to see the funny. Minimum wage for someone working 8 hr days, 5 days a week, is $38k in Denver! If asking for on call, phone support from home, Sat work, this basically equals minimum wage! Same...

Nice. Hey, wjere are the best pics of your tent popped up, in this 67pg thread? I'm feeling I might like yours better than TRCM one...

While camping, at least on 5 day trips or so where you have fridge space for it, the intent here to save energy use is to have PRECOOKED meals, so you are just warming them up. You could actually cook SV, but not as much savings... and its not like you're resupplying fresh meat on a trip and...

Thx. Dang, 240A is huge! Tacoma with tow package or off road only has 130A!

For overland truck food prep, maximizing the efficiency of our electric energy use for cooking a meal can be important. This is a method I've been experimenting with to efficiently boil water, then use it for hot drinks, heating precooked vacuum sealed meals "sous vide" style in a 1 gallon...

Wow, what a great resource! Thanks!

Doh, I've been following this build, didnt see he posted the interior! Thx

Oh this is smart. But one thing, what about the air intake for combustion? If taking from inside the truck, instead of outside, it will then suck cold air in through gaps to replace combustion air. Normally you vent BOTH intake and exhaust outside. They make and sell a 2 hole piece to install.

Mules, the inline power fuse will blow if 10A too. That fuse is supposed to be a 15A fuse. The heater demands 120 to 130w on glowplug startup. That is 10 to 11 amps. Fuse is supposed to be 125% of the load, then round up. My vevor actually came with an inline fuse supplied, and it is indeed...

Recent test of diesel heater CO emissions vs car, etc. Clickbait title, but very positive outcome. HOWEVER, messing with the mixture richness, reducing combustion air flow, has an immediate increase of CO. Yes you can run these on kerosene, sometimes-- you need diesel for its self lubrication...

I was going to buy one. The unbelievably bad customer service to order one, and dealer lack of knowledge or interest, stopped me. Half the products are not visible on their terrible DCU website, and the ones you want for iverlanding are the ones missing. You want the vertical sides, radius...
