    OK...finally time for the Inreach Explorer

    I have the InReach plan with unlimited tracking points and messages and it runs me 25 per month. We do a trip or two each month, so for me, having the ability to have automated tracking, text with family and the venerable SOS button available, I think it's hard to beat the InReach. Sent from...

    Alu-Cab Has Landed In The USA!

    I've had the shadow Awn on my 100 since April and have been on trails through Maine, NH, VT and Colorado. No issues. The cover seems up to job of taking pinstripes and no snags to mention.

    Where did you find the adapter? I've seen a couple that look like they'll work but then are off in some way. Most of the ones I have see are for refilling the green 1 pounders from a 20 point tank. A link would highly desired!

    Designing a complicated power infrastructure, seeking inputs on my inputs and ouputs

    The GFCI will likely not work correctly because a vehicle doesn't have a real ground. Even with a generator, we had to switch to arc-fault interrupters on some work vehicles because of this.

    2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek Build

    Any details on the maxtrax "adapter" you have mounted? I've been needing something similar on my rear swingout and have been thinking I'll need to fabricate it... This looks like the same concept. I'd be going vertically. Nice subi !

    EarthRoamer XV-JP "Northwest Edition"

    If only we had a suitable rig to mount those on! The tundra and dodge full-size are just too big for me! Not sure the Tacoma could handle that weight. The 70 series LC and the Patrols seem perfect, especially with the diesel torque for the power plant. That canopy is awesome!

    How important is it to "top off" my vehicle's starting battery (or deep cycle)?

    I might also add that it sucks Luna didn't include 12.8 in the display... Though I guess they figure >12.6 is 100%.

    How important is it to "top off" my vehicle's starting battery (or deep cycle)?

    I'd echo the experience here that in fact using a optima yellow top as a starting battery does in fact degrade it over the period of about 2 years. I can't get my primary to stay in the green of my Luna controller unless I've drained it and charged it from a shore-based charger. I routinely...

    Not yet, but I've not pressed in earnest yet. Been traveling and enjoying my kit! After a trip out west and back though, I am going to start on it... Needs more protection in the back of my rig.

    Deal on Lifepo4 aux power solution - Energy Bar 225

    I have a yellow top AGM and with a full load of groceries and moderate ambient in the truck, I can *just* make 24 hrs... And that battery is 85Ah. Can't see how you'd make it with only 18 Ah. This past weekend I camped for4 days and with 130watt of solar charging the battery during the day in...
