    RTT Autohome Columbus like new, Boulder, CO

    Lol, that makes sense. I'm 5'10" and wishing I had the long version. Yours is XL which I don't really need. Sent from my SM-G981U using Tapatalk

    Litium batteries for winching

    Modern day alternators can handle pumping out high enough voltages to keep AGM batts happy. Sometimes a simple trick to full the alternator into pushing out higher voltage is all it takes. My '96 landcruiser alternator would destroy AGM batt over a year. Hopefully, your charging system can...

    Can we talk coffee brewing?

    I'm now dating someone who drinks black coffee. I refuse to let her bring pre-ground coffee to camping so it's time to grind espresso and coarse coffee!!

    quiet generator options?

    This is a great compromise, especially camping with an infant and the need for a/c. During the summers, I aim for high elevation camping but that's a luxury that some may not have. I agree with others as there's no such thing as a "quiet" generator. Even my Honda 2000 is quiet when it's...

    Litium batteries for winching

    I have a Warn M10k winch and I purposely buried my 7500# 80 series landcruiser for a winch training class many, many moons ago. It was Midwest mud, nice and black! IIRC, the current showed was 600amp+ while operating the winch. These current loads are sudden and came as multiple hits which...

    Sewing Thread....A discussion on making your own adventure textile gear.

    Paul - thanks for your input. That was my thought as well, see what the local outfit would charge when I take the whole shebang over to them. I have two normal sewing machines and will attempt this on my own first just to see if I can do it. I'm going to have to setup several bobbins so...

    Sewing Thread....A discussion on making your own adventure textile gear.

    hello folks, I need some guidance with a sewing project of mine. The stitching on my canvas has been coming apart and I'd like to remove the whole thing off the camper and re-stitch over the factory stitching. Obviously this is a LOT of material that needs to fit through the opening of a...

    Looking for the most efficient solar panel

    I have another point of view from a different angle! You have a small space on the roof, which means you have not a lot of space for an optimum solar gain or wattage. Additionally, you have to mount them laying flat, which also prevents the optimum solar power gain based on the # of sun...

    Reasonable Internet service if you are not using Starlink?

    I hear ya. I have Starlink at home and it's mounted permanently. Not once did I ever go "hmm, wonder if I should take this setup with me to go camping". Nope, not even once. I camp to get off the grid and away from people, LOL!! Others have legit reasons for needing off grid solutions...

    Replacing struts on James Baroud tent

    Find out the following, then order from Mcmaster carr -psi desired. This one can be tough if you can't read that info off the sides of your current struts. I'd guess somewhere between 30-50psi per strut, but that's a WAG on my part. - extended length -compressed length -mounting style at each...

    Tent replacement

    My experience is only with an Authome columbus RTT but I wonder if an iKamper would fit your bill? I don't know if insulation is going to be something easy to find or be effective where you camp during winter (dude, you crazy!!). The side wall material leaks like a sieve, as you know. But, the...
