The Lair

Is this a sign that you are going native?

 

The solar controller I’m using is whatever comes in the kit.

So far so good?

 

Yeah it’s been trouble free for about a year now. It’s also nice for the agm battery because it gives it the higher voltage it needs that the alternator can’t.

 

How low do you get overnight? Negligible? Alicia is a glamper, so I'm looking at Dometicish coolers and possibly powering string lights, blender, hair dryer, etc...

 

Low enough, but I’ve never put a multimeter on it after a night of camping. It does crank a little slower in the morning. I also run a noise machine and small fan in my tent, powered off of the truck battery.

 

Hmmm. Maybe a portable solar genny is in order as well. I'm going to have to do the unavoidable.... math.

 

*shudders intensely* Ugh, gross.

 

Not a chance. I like 10% of my income and cheap whiskey way too much.

 

Ok, whew! I just wanted to check.

 

However, I do look dashing in a black set of slacks and a crisp white shirt. The nametag chafes my nips though

Great article for the true offroaders on this group

 

Stab the potato all over with a fork, cut in half, wrap in tin foil, set it on the exhaust manifold for 30 minutes.

 

Made my aux reverse lights strobe today. Wired them in so I can flip a switch and make them strobe or put the truck in reverse and they come in solid. Wanted to make them strobe for my chase lights.

You will impress me when you mount a potato cannon on the roof rack

 

Just make sure whoever is behind you doesn't have epilepsy!

 

I think Miguel has to design it first.

 

Funny you say this, Miguel is skipping rocks from a beach house in Arizona.

 

Its already designed. I just need to draw out engineering drawings, create a supply list, acquire supplies, manufacture custom parts, create coding for the controlling circuitry, build prototype, buy potato's, optest. Its basically at 97% completion..
