Thank you so much for sharing. Your lifestyle, and many others that are similar draw a lot of my attention. Especially as I scroll through your stories while stuck behind computer screens at work. While my wife, two young boys, and I get out and enjoy as much as we can, we are burdened, yet...

we ran all of the new mexico portion of the enchanted rockies trail. do it. it was really awesome.

thanks for sharing. ive got to get out to utah someday soon. i keep seeing pictures like yours and just have to get there!

yeah, this pandemic has the outdoors full of people, good and bad i suppose. The wife and i were planning a trip back to Colorado at the end of sept, i hope the fires dont screw us to much.

The southfork part is a link. Not sure why it's not underlined Link to video, click me

Most of this trip we rode our sxs on some trails, but we spent the week primitive camping on the beautiful beaver creek. We plan on bringing the Jeep out here in a month. South Fork camping and riding This was my first video edit, we're usually picture people, but made a video to share with...

Thank you! I couldn't get my head wrapped around it. Was stuck. Thanks for explaining it.

That's how I understood it. So in this application, the charger I bought is rated to put out 9 amps at 11-15v adjustable. Does this mean it will draw more current from the 7 pin than it can handle?

So I'm starting to install the DC/DC. How does it up the voltage, maintaining 9 amps, when the input current is lower than 9 amps?

I ended up snagging a good deal on a suitcase 100 amp kit to have with us just in case. Plus, I've built 2 different tongues for this trailer. One for my truck, more of a developed campground scenario, and our 4 door jeep, for the more remote trips. So this set up will work for both town rigs...

that was what i was expecting to hear. being off in the middle of nowhere with a dead house battery is alot less of a problem than a tow vehicle without a working alternator. i think for me personally, with my smaller electrical needs, will stick to a small charge coming into the 7 pin, and...

by wear and tear i was referring to the alternator, or other electrical components on the tow vehicle from having it put out a higher output for longer than normal operation while charging the house battery is it harder on the start battery or house battery if you were to run a 2awg wire from...

alternators generally dont put out high output for long periods of time. Is there some pre-mature wear and tear coming from running heavy gauge wires? also, isnt it understood that charging two different types and state of charge batteries at the same time causes premature failure of the...

i think i like this option, sounds pretty safe. ill order that dc-dc charger. This will also allow it to work with most tow vehicles without modification. I'd prefer to get more then 8a charge rate if I can. I still need to look into some solar options. What do you recommend for suitcase style...

Yeah, that one is way to slow. I only use it at home to top it off after a trip, or maintain it if it sits. Got a smokin deal on it Black Friday.

I like that idea. I've got a spool of 2awg in the shop from making welding leads. I'll have to look into that... What's a good option for suitcase solar setups? We also have a big enclosed trailer we use for "toy hauler" to hit trails with our rzr. A solar setup that could be used on it would...

i really would like to run one on the trailer, but havnt figured out how. the RTT covers pretty much the entire thing.

we have a jeep wrangler rubicon pulling a home made offroad trailer. it is set up with brakes, and 7 pin charging set up. The trailer has a simple electrical system that runs a 12v fan, some led lights, and charges phones etc. We just bought a 12v fridge that will be on sliders in the trailer...

Good video. Can't wait until we get to make a trip to Utah.
