I’ve had this Speedaire unit for awhile and it’s never had any issues but recently I’ve though about buying a newer unit to save weight and space. I use it mainly to air down the tires on my Sprinter. I don’t know any of the technical specs other than its 1/2hp 110V. It looks to be fairly well...
Anyone who travels across state lines with a firearm should have current copy of this book. It literally covers EVERYTHING you need to now and it’s all separated by state for quick reference...
We’re looking for a foldable/inflatable recreational boating option that we can either carry inside our Sprinter van or up on the roof. We’d prefer something with minimal set up time as this would be used at the spur of the moment or if we plan to visit a lake for the afternoon. So far I’ve...
Yep, street pressure. I forgot my air compressor. We usually winter camp so this is our first year out in the summer. I even had the wrong shovel with me from the winter (flat) I’m slowly getting things together. I ordered maxtrax already. New tires and suspension work in about 4 weeks. Swapped...
You can’t tell from the pictures but there was a decent sized rock next to the inside of the rear tire that sat about 6” above ground and I couldn’t get the chains to connect with it there. The other tire was buried in the mud so I said the hell with it and just dig out what I could outside of...
This happened 2 weeks ago. I went down into a campsite to have a look at things. I intended just to circle the campfire and head back out all without stopping. Soon as I got down there about halfway around the campfire I started to spin and come to a dead stop so I backed up and put my nose...
I need something to give me a tug if I find myself stuck in some light mud. My van is 2wd and weighs around 9k pounds. I don’t do anything crazy off-road, mostly forest roads and deserts out west.
I’m a pretty good driver and most of the time i can avoid situations but every now and then...
I have a 170”wb extended body Sprinter Van with a roof rack. I’m looking to add lights from Baja Designs but I’m having trouble figuring out which models to go with. I need flood lights for area work around the van. I’d light to hit a switch and have the entire area around my van lit up like...
I have a pretty simple water system that consists of a tank, short line, pump and then a Ecotemp shower. I dump bleach in with a tank of water and drive around a bit. Afterwards I run the shower to clean it out and then pump out the tank and refill with fresh water.
I have a RC 40” X5 curved bar on my van an i love it. i bought it off of their scratch/dent ebay store. the guy i spoke with said that everything sold there is basically a return thats been inspected and nothing gets sold that isnt factory fresh. my bar looked 100% off the assembly line.
i...
Weboost is great if there’s an existing single, even if very faint and you don’t want to pay a monthly bill for the mobile hotspot. When we’re not on the road we generally go to one of the local forests here in Pa and our Weboost works where as our cellphones never had a chance.
Ideally...
Good point about introducing a new way to fail. I’ll definitely be thinking this all over as I finish up gathering information.
I plan on solar in the future. Right now im set up for it via a Redarc BC/DC Charger.
i though about switching the relay but then what if the relay goes bad or something? we spend the majority of our times out of cell phone range so combining both batteries with a physical switch would be more reliable. Circuit wizards says 2awg is good to go.
i have a 2013 Mercedes Sprinter van with a factory installed auxiliary battery package (starter battery + auxiliary battery). the way it sits now, the auxiliary battery connects to the alternator and the starter battery whenever the engine to is running to charge, and then disconnects whenever...
