    Overland Rigs Australia

    Just UHF. Run a spare antenna, had to sell my backup radio. Got a TX3540s, but I want to sell it and run a TX4500s again. Small antenna is for AM/FM. I like antennas ;) Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

    2005 Nissan Patrol TD42 ST-L aka "Lola"

    The past week or two, I've been back to work on my Arduino, to try and get some new tech in to the car! This is my progress for the week. Monitoring Primary and Aux battery voltages, and solar panel voltage, plus a temp probe for inside and out. The voltages all seem to be down by 0.4V on the...

    Arduino - State of Charge - auxiliary battery monitor

    Found some helpful info on the owner's manual for the Enerdrive battery monitor. The user inputs the battery capacity and the float voltage. It seems that their unit either auto-synchronises when the terminal voltage sits at float voltage for 4 minutes or more, or you can manually synchronise it...

    Thought I'd share some of my mods. I've got access to a CNC engraver at work; mostly only good for plastic, or surface engraving metal, so I've been able to knock up some switch panels for my Patrol. I did a utility panel for the rear with charging sockets, voltmeters and a light switch for my...

    2015 Toyota Tacoma Build

    Hey man, love the build! I've seen a bunch of those little pod lights or similar at the bottom of the A pillar on US trucks, but we never really see it in Australia. How do they go, do you find them useful? Much bonnet glare? Also how do you guys stick your patches on the roof liner? Sent...
