Healeyjet... I just found this thread, sadly too late to have seen your rig at the Expo. But, I just read through all 55 pages and finding that you're selling it, after the dramatic build, was like watching a movie where the lead dies unexpectedly.
Anyway, thanks for taking the time to document all of this. I took screenshots, and even some real handwritten notes, during my read-through and I've got a couple of questions, if you don't mind.
Regarding the induction cooktop, how did that work off your battery bank and inverter? They seem to be efficient and work quickly, so the draw is fairly brief. We plan to have about your same solar setup, so your experience would be helpful.
And, about that Cradlepoint internet setup, how did you like that? We're planning a mobile work platform, so that looks like a great option. But, I saw you mention that you didn't have good wifi while at the Expo. And, since we live in Flagstaff, that concerned us - if your Cradlepoint didn't work at Mormon Lake (which isn't terribly remote), it might not be an option for us as we move around.
Thanks much and best wishes with the commercial project. We had the same wheels turning in our brains after the Expo, where people were asking us about selling our brand-new-to-us ambulance. We had only picked it up the week before and just brought it to the Expo for show and tell, and to get ideas. We already have 3 jobs between us, plus the rig project, so we'll pass for now. And we'll continue to watch your updates.
