    Boreas Campers EOS12

    I’m tempted to re-route the zamp port to the charge controller. Looks pretty straightforward, but wondering if the factory doesn’t do this for a specific reason?

    Boreas Campers EOS12

    We also go with parking in the shade in the summer, we have two 100w portable solar panels but haven’t been out long enough to need them yet. No rivets, sort of in the R&D phase right now, planning on using for light items. I didn’t want to rivet, I can see one of my kids grabbing and pulling...

    Skinny Guy Campers Armor

    Cool. Seems like a good one to keep an eye on. Looking forward to seeing a walkthrough and final MSRP. I checked out one of their truck bed campers in person, it was very well made

    Skinny Guy Campers Armor

    If this rolls off the line for $45k seems like it could be a competitive option . Guessing it will be another Chinese import but who knows https://skinnyguycampers.com/armor-15b/

    Do your brakes fully lock up?

    for those of you interested, I ended up troubleshooting, found voltage at the brakes was good and just decided to swap out the brake assemblies instead of trying to troubleshoot the magnets, etc. One side had been over greased, and there was some grease on the pads, but after swapping out the...

    Do your brakes fully lock up?

    The DMV wants me to drag the trailer with the brakes on and see the tires not roll at all, before they will give me a rebuilt title. Not sure how much sense that makes but it is the government after all.

    Do your brakes fully lock up?

    Thanks, good idea to try maxing out the gain. I agree, ideally, they will lock up. planning on troubleshooting, have a multi meter on order to arrive tomorrow. I was just curious if I am pursuing an unachievable goal with lock up. Pretty sure if it was sitting on those typical small tires...

    Do your brakes fully lock up?

    Well, either. I believe the emergency brake cable basically maxes out what the brake controller module would activate. So either/both.

    Do your brakes fully lock up?

    In the process of retitling my new to me trailer. The DMV wants me to pull the emergency brake cable on the trailer, and then drag it, skidding the tires. The brakes are definitely engaging but the tires don’t completely lock up. I’m wondering if it is because these large grippy off-road...

    Arkto Campers-Shakedown, Update

    Yeah if you can pick one up for $25k even if you have to drop 10 into it you’re still ahead. Or that 42k like new approach… honestly I was in the same boat regarding price. Have to make some compromises if you’re not going to pay top dollar

    Arkto Campers-Shakedown, Update

    I think his canyon would tow the D13 without any issue. D15 would be pushing it. My Colorado diesel tows better than quite a few half tons I’ve driven or owned, as long as you don’t mind not going over 70 on the freeway or 65 up a pass.

    Post favorite pics of your rig and trailer

    After half a decade on the search for a trailer, came across this used EOS-12 at a price point I could handle! I think it might have been the prototype. First three nights in the books, have to say so far I’m ecstatic. It goes smoother than anything I’ve pulled this far, especially on...

    OBI Dweller Review and Discussion

    Sounds like you have plenty of experience with the 3-way fridges, so to each their own. Don’t have a dweller but have had both a 12 V and a 3 way and I like the 12 V because it gets really cold, is mechanically simpler, and works regardless of the climate. My propane fridge used to take forever...

    Any advice for buying a used trailer?

    Yep totally agree. Would not be buying a used Elkhart camper, they only have a few good years anyways. Had been checking out used Bigfoots but just got a line on a Boreas so hoping that works out. Camper seems to be in good shape, tested everything except the propane appliances (bottle was...
