    Whew! Glad Ben and team were able to fix his oil line. Eight rigs back by the bridge, four more on the beach ( I think). Official departure is 9am today. Unofficially, if you are up for a short hike we'll be meeting at the large pullout just south of the bridge for a 1/2 mile hike into the...

    Cell boosters worth it?

    We had the WeBoost RV Park model for a year or so until we went Starlink. It worked great pretty much everywhere we could get at least some signal to work with (Baja, western states). The directional antenna required a bit of effort to get optimally pointed (there are apps that will show the...

    You'll likely get a lot of answers, but here's a quick list of what I did (hmmm, not sure OB is going to let me put the links in - I'll put names of stuff and you can find it all on the web): Redarc 40A DC-DC charger Battleborn 100Ah LiFePO4 battery 12v outlet Battery Cable - 25ft 8ga...

    Friday-Sunday family trip. Out to Usal Beach on Friday, quick tour of the Redwoods on Saturday ending on the side of the Klamath River, optional Fern Canyon side trip on Sunday morning, optionally followed by lunch at the Samoa Cookhouse. This is a tried and true winner for newcomers and...

    Just in case you don't already know, the Victron display can adjust the 110 amps being pulled from the power source. Might be worth playing around to get the most efficient approach

    Yeah, the resistance is the resistance. We sometimes run the generator while underway. That charges everything up pretty quickly.

    If you'll be driving a bit most days the Redarc dc-dc 40a charger is what I rely on. It generally drives 20+ amps over 4g into the trailer bank and we pull 100 amps per day. If you'll be parked or pulling too many amps for a car charger then we use a champion 3.5k mounted on the back of the...

    Yeah, hit me up if you make it out to Northern California (anywhere north of Monterey) and I'll either help you find some great spots or go with you to them.

    Awesome! As I write this we are sitting in the Quinault Rainforest next to our HQ15. Our SL sits on the truck 90% of the time, but can go onto a mast on the back of the trailer when needed. I kept the white leather, but had a car upholstery shop cut down the back cushions to fit and replace...

    Janet and I must also send our regrets. We are "up north" for a couple of weeks. Thanks again for all your leadership. It was a pleasure meeting you and Kelly. Happy Trails Until We Meet Again.
