    The method for the hole though was kind of involved and I was in the zone and forgot to document it. I found some PVC pipe that was almost the exact diameter of the airhead vent fan cowl piece, drilled a hole just big enough for the pipe to slide through in the roof, then coated the hole...

    Beautiful Banff in our OEV Summit and a hydronics dilemma

    I'd 100% isolate the circuits.. No questions asked.. If you get a leak or failure with an isolated heater circuit, you dont have heat.. not a huge deal or emergency If you have a leak or failure with a coolant circuit connected to the truck, you can potentially lose coolant and destroy your...

    Bumper sticks out about 8” behind the box My HPI rear box I just ordered will be 6” deep off the back and hold my recovery gear and such and still give me 2” to bumper and keep everything at 23’9”

    Well.. yeah, If you’re rear ended by the average sedan that’d be safe. But anything else and the camper takes the hit. I also wanted the bumper the furthest thing in the rear for trail duty too backing up and or down trails or turning around. Trees and rocks like to jump out at you... I...

    That rendering is awesome @mog Great work! Im hoping he adds a real rear bumper to protect the box in the event of a rear end collision, or backing into trees and whatever on the trail. Having just fiberglass the rearmost portion of your setup is no bueno for a host of reasons My overall...

    Small but huge update... Redid the guest side dinette in black and remade the bottom seat part to fold up to access the void that will be storage. The table size and shape are perfect, but i am going to redo it in 3/4 versus 1/2 and going to have it fixed, instead of using the Lagun system...

    That doesn’t make sense, for both financial or space savings reasons

    Yeah, that was one of the reason I chose life blue over the battle borns. They’ll accept higher charge rates

    Absolutely love it and it works exactly as advertised and confirmed with the Victron app that its putting out a true 60 amps to my camper. I'd absolutely consider the 120 version, and might actually still go with one if i end up adding a second battery. Only reason i didnt get the 120 at first...

    Nice! Yeah, so far i am super impressed! 1): It's all in my latest YouTube video. I routed it through the roof. My reasoning is, the futher away from where i am, the better. If its routed underneath, the odors could possibly build up. If routed to the side, i didnt want to catch any wiffs...

    Yeah, I’m thinking an extrusion on one side of the wall with 2 bolts holding that side and then a leg on the edge of it. Leaving ample unobstructed room under the table itself. It’s also valuable storage space for stuff while in transit

    Yes, that was actually my original plan, and the route i was going. But at 12" diameter, the base took up too much valuable foot room, and i know it would eventually drive me nuts

    Thanks! Thats actually the route i think i'm going to take also. The chances i'll ever actually need this as a bed are close to zero and a fixed table solves alot of issues and saves space.

    Yes, and thanks for the great detailed info! I appreciate it. I had these lights laying around from a previous project and wasnt sure they'd work for this, but it seems they work perfectly. I will most likely be changing the lenses to yellow, since i have those here in a box somewhere. I...
