There is an alternative high end connector to these, one of the related companies to the one I work for is building and recently distributing: http://www.eaxtron.com/ Not cheap as chinese anderson knock offs but one and done, and I apologize for the shameless plug (pun?)

Huh, Ive heard of higher alt outputs, his system may be designed to see high load at all times, or some sort of high output scenario. Maybe dig up the manufacturers specs on the batteries to see if they define a range of limits. May be different for non high CCA style batteries.

Sucks about your finger bud

Iggi had his rig over last night to do a couple small errands before a two week trip. Turns out an electrical bug was two flat auxiliary batteries that need replacing unfortunately ($). It is pretty cool with all the "smooth surfaces" must be all welded aluminum, no rust anywhere and clean. I...

Gerber made a tool called the crucial, they had a few different variations of it but one had the corkscrew. Every once in a while one comes up on ebay. I have a couple of these tools. They are about perfect for me, as they are a decent multi-tool, they are cheap, and they have the corkscrew...

How many bolts on the main bearing caps on the 1.9? Reinforcing that area, or re-engineering it to use steel inserts and oversized bolts might be smart. Same for the cylinder head to the block. Something like a helicoil insert, which will give more material to grab onto for the studs/bolts. Not...

I just had a look on their website, they're in Calgary too, I sent them an email and apparently they're moving their design studio to my neighbourhood. I may have to pick one up! They also make a bunch of tactical gear, plate carriers and stuff, apparently they ship out of Colorado though.

I did figure that out eventually, was probably half an hour or an hour later. For some scenarios that could be too long. This info also posted in a thread on Ih8mud, someone posted that they had issues and needed to sync it in order update the software for it to work correctly. For any of you...

Conclusion: Apparently my mother had typed a longer message with InReach, but it only delivered "help", but apparently she had thought she sent more details. Being unfamiliar with InReach, I had no way of responding. They had no plan communicated with me, or better yet with the others that had...

It turns out, my parents, older, my father with a bad back (fused discs, titanium shoulder replacements), had also brought my brother (also a bad back), second cousin and a friend. Luckily for them. They had driven up the river without problem, but on the way down they went around the wrong...

So, they had friends that were either up camping, or where to be there sometime soon. I do not have their contact info, but they all have riverboats, the weather gets to about -5C (23F) at night, cooler on the river with the humid air. The days are short there, and you don't want to be stuck...

So a few things went through my head, but it's easier to communicate it better like this. Imagine your mother, father, partner, son or daughter sends you an email or note or text, you do not know how to contact them and don't have cell contact. The only thing you got was "help". And you could...

This thread is to identify issues with using a communicator like Garmin InReach, to help identify proper planning prcedures and communicating with other parties. It is just a story of a recent trip, but should give you some ideas. I was headed off for a week of hunting/camping with my parents...

combination cam cabinet lock you can order similar from mcmaster, amazon or whatever. At least you won't need to carry a key, or loose your keys and you can still open it. Just recess it if possible...

I have a 40" aliexpress dual row curved bar. It makes ALOT of light... But it's a combo beam, and because of the flood lights I get a bit of glare off the hood, I should have gone for a spot light format. Point is, if you put it up top only get a spot light, don't bother with flood or combo...

This is an interesting idea, is there any risk (chemical contamination) from ABS or PVC piping for drinking waters, or anything to avoid (specific pipe glues or similar)? I'm gonna have a look at the 80 and see if there is a good spot for something under it.

Nice 80, mine's a 92 as well. Thats quite a list you go there, looking forward to more pics of your progress.

I had a local cruiserhead come over and drop some software on the Acer last night (freebie). He uses the software on his setup (garmins nroute etc.) Ill be using the globalsat bu-353 antenna/puck which will run around $40 at gps city, I asked the tech on the phone and he said it will talk to...

Hello, as per the title, could anyone point me to decent cheap or free software? Im looking for topo maps mostly for BC and Alberta, but western NA would be good. If I had backroad maps that would be a bonus too. Right now I have an Acer Aspire, and am planning to buy a USB gps antenna. But I...
