    Solar Charger & Appliances with Max Voltage <= 14V

    Hi All, So I've got a sweet solar setup installed in my trailer with proper controller and a pair of Trojan T105s. Love it. Problem: neither my Propex furnace nor my Maxxfan like seeing high voltage (over 15V for the furnace and 13.5V for the fan) but the Trojan's want to bulk at 14.82V and...

    Overlanding pop up camper

    I see the shower power inlet is on the side. Did you install the battery bank in the main box?

    Cell Booster

    How did the booster work out? I'm about to get one for my offroad trailer, so we can work from more remote places. I seem to often find sweet campsites with a weak signal, so I'm hoping to improve that. Need to decide on Wilson vs Surecall, next. Then, do I mount the antenna so it's angled...

    Combining Somewhat Dissimilar [12v] Panels in Parallel

    I only use PWM controllers, so that's perfect advice. And I didn't really understand that point, so thank you for the explanation. The above makes sense to me. My suitcase units have no controller, I only use controllers permanently installed in my vehicles. I don't understand why one would...

    Combining Somewhat Dissimilar [12v] Panels in Parallel

    Very good points. So maybe I run EITHER the roof panel OR the portables, depending on conditions. Thanks for your reply. How close do they need to be, in reality, to run in parallel?

    Combining Somewhat Dissimilar [12v] Panels in Parallel

    Hi All, I'm not quite clear on this piece, so I'd like to get your collective input. I have a pair of 100W Renogy "suitcase" panels that I run in parallel or separately depending on my requirements and the vehicle combination I'm using. The specifications for these units are as follows...

    Has anyone heard whether Darche awnings are in stock in North America? Or whether 23zero's Peregrine product is the same?

    School me on towing a small trailer off-highway?

    It has brakes and I'm 95% through installing a Redarc Tow-Pro Elite in the truck. Thanks!

    School me on towing a small trailer off-highway?

    Yup, I'm using the factory pintle on my 'cruiser. :) People tried to convince me to go to a multi-axis coupler, but I want to try this out for a while and see if I like it. So much simpler…

    School me on towing a small trailer off-highway?

    I've only ever towed a 20' command post behind a Tundra. I am receiving a 2500 lb teardrop this weekend, with Timbren axleless suspension and am going to tow it behind my HDJ81. I assume that towing on-highway is nothing onerous, but I can't seem to find a nice writeup of tips for towing...

    Connectors and crimpers

    You need the correct terminals for the ire gauge. The “extension cord” I made for my portable solar setup is 10 awg, as an example.
