    Yep! Solar panel is running great. I have since replaced my Switch-Pro since I burned out my first unit. iKamper is great. It is in storage, but mostly because of the potential hail nightmares out here in Nebraska

    Good to know the Renogy panel is holding up. My long term goal will be 1 or 2 100W panels and a GoalZero Yeti 1000 Lithium. 200 watts of solar should get us through the day (I bring lots of camera gear) and the100AH lithium battery should last us a few days/nights if the sun doesn't cooperate.
    I definitely want the new iKamper up on the roof too. That thing looks sweet!

    They are just tail light guards. I got them off eBay and then painted them matte. I can’t find the third gens now when I look for them though

    What bed rack did you use?

    Does the iKamper ever hit the other rack over the cab?

    Thank you for your time!

    The original bed rack in the pictures was a KBVoodoo rack. I have since moved on to a reinforced camper shell with a prinsu rack on top. The iKamper doesn't hit at all, its install tracks elevate by about 3/4" which is just enough to miss over bumps. I would imagine if I was flexing a bit that I would, so if I planned any serious trips with the iKamper, I would through some spacers in there before install.

    Awesome you're the best.

    How was the wind noise with the iKamper hanging over the cab?

    Not noticeable to me. But I also have sound proofing in the cab so that might have helped
