Thanks- I'm too Yep- went there yesterday and they had smaller 12v (50w, 100w, 150w) in stock and reasonably priced but mostly focus on home installation. Owners a gringo which helped since my Spanish is bad, she mentioned there is a marine place in La Paz that might have more of what I'm...

Ah, good idea with the spade terminal. So far I've wadded up some 16awg and shoved it in the terminal, it kinda made click and seems to stay in place- put some electrical tape over it to help. Wedged the other end into the f47 fuse under the hood. Neither fell out on a drive from El Pescadero to...

Currently traveling in Baja and didn't have time to real-life test my solar system before leaving, need to find a place that sells 12v panels in the 100-200w range and maybe someone that can help 'rig' something into the IGN port of a Renogy DCC30S- left that cable at home, didn't realize I have...

Currently traveling through Baja, didn't have time to do a shakedown of my solar system in the desert before going on this trip and just realized (1) I need a larger solar panel, and (2) I have a smart alternator which means my dc-dc charger doesn't put out power most of the time. Be nice to...

The purpose of the system is to use the vehicles alternator/start battery to charge a RV (house) battery inside a truck camper. It is basically a topper-style camper, not a slide in, and I was already planning on pulling a fused 4awg wire from the positive terminal of the start battery through...

Which battery do you mean by 'target' battery (start or house)

Curious for those of us mounting the DCC30S in a truck camper, not a modern cargo van, where we would ground it to. My assumption is that I can drill a hole in the nearest, most convenient place in the frame under the bed and screw off the ground wire there. Or do I need to locate the trucks'...

You ever get the DCC30s?

I like how everyone gave you everything BUT a review of the P9000/12000... I did talk to some with an OVRLND camper that he insulated, as well as made a thermal liner for. With a P9000 he said that he was able to keep the inside at 60f while it was 10f outside in the winter, looks like he does...

Where did you get those mattresses? What kind of foam? Need to source/make one for my Ovrlnd.

Need to make a 3" mattress for a lightly insulated pop-top camper and can't, won't, and don't want to use memory foam since it gets rock hard in winter, even with a heater in the cabin. Exped mat is a possibility due to the R value but don't feel like opening the valve and folding it in half to...

How hot does it get above the fireplace? Dickinson recommends 20" of clearance above it but wondering if that's actually unnecessary.

Anyone have any beta on installing these in vehicles without aux fuel tap ports on the fuel pump? Wondering if its possible to T into the fuel lines somehow- the thought of removing the fuel tank on a 2015 Canyon to access the fuel pump and drill a hole through it or the tank sounds like not fun.

Did your Colorado have an aux port on the fuel pump or did you have to have the shop do something custom? I have a gasoline canyon and can't seem to find any info about the fuel pumps having aux ports (I'm assuming they don't). Seems spendy to have someone drop the tank and drill in a fuel...

Dickinson has replacement orifices in 2000' increments that will allow the p9000 to function up to 10,000'. Also seems like a lot of people are running them at elevation with the stock orifice without problem. OK4WD has an Alucab mounting bracket for the P9000 that completely ignores the...

Found a place in CT called Defender that had a couple left for $900.

Following... Just got an OVRLND and have been curious about the B4 but my truck doesn't have an aux port on the fuel pump AND you have to drop the tank to access it. Tentatively going to install a Dickinson P9000. Part of that decision was based on having 2 different pop-top Tigers which are...

How well does that bedbug insulate?

Nice, thanks, I just got my OVRLND today. Ordered a Dickinson p9000 for it. What kind of mattress material are you using?

Whats the coldest temps you've slept in? How well does that Bedrug insulate? Any problem with the diesel gelling leaving it outside?
