    More like previous owner problems. This thing has been majorly abused in the past

    What do you do?

    I work outside 4-5 months a year, has it's ups and downs.

    #coloradosuckstellyourfriends

    I made mine for under 50... but I had a few things laying around. Dual battery can be as simple or complicated as you make it. I had a free new motorcycle AGM battery lying around that I used. It actually fits between the regular batter and the fender. All I did was use 2 relays and 2 circuit breakers, I still need to add a resistor.

    There was a thread on EXPO for a cheap solenoid based dual battery: http://www.expeditionportal.com/for...ke-a-cheap-isolated-dual-battery-setup-for-50

    I agree with the #coloradosuckstellyourfriends. Keep everyone out. I am a CO at the prison here in BV.

    I couldn't do that. Maybe it is a Millennial thing... I love the outdoors.

    Where did you get $300, plus the battery? No battery GBs lately... :p

    Very nice. At least you didn't end up in Canon City. That place... blows...

    When I climbed Princeton I summited around 4am came over the ridge... BOOOM light. I am sure you know what I am referring to...

    I was in Canon for a month and it is terrible. Not a huge fan of it, but they did have decent Mexican food which is more than I can say about BV. I applied on to the BV prison. I know exactly what you are saying lol
