We did a East/West/East run last year. NH to Washington State into Canada (Vancouver), through Jasper and west along the border in Canada. Many places along the way to see. The Canadian Rockies are just beautiful and traveling south through them (out of Jasper) is not to be missed. The run along...
I also have lost hope for our plans of exploring NB back country this year. Still hoping to get in the lower portion of the trip along Maine's coastline.
Main issue with Engel (or other high end units) is the cost.. Comparison for e is a 64qt Engel is just under $1500! Yikes.. They still claim .07-2.8 amps consumption. That equal to a 15% to 60% on Duty Cycle for my Generic.. for a quarter of the price. Okay, the Engel will out live me, yet I'm...
"What are you folks seeing for consumption for a 24hr period (or whatever time you have recorded) in real life use? I really hoping for > a 40/60 duty cycle. in a 24hr period..."
How does yours run, at what temp are you basing it, at what setting did you run at and for how long did you measure?
I guess I'll be answering this fairly soon, but it's kinda driving me nuts..
I purchased a 12v frig/freezer (chest style) and awaiting delivery. Claim is 60watt run consumption (hoping on high..). I have no idea what the true duty cycle might be.. I've heard any where from 30/70, 50/50 tp 70/30...
Time for an update! With the roof in pace it was time to prototype the lift bracket (my H bracket) and give it a try. Hinged in the middle, it folds and extends nicely. I like!!
This only shows the back lifted, but the front will be as well.
Door went on the back entry and starting into...
Do a search on free campsites.net and iOverlander | Find your next destination along the route for possible campsites. As of late I'm finding more accurate info on iOverlander... Both are good sites though! VT is a little more open then NH to legitimate overnighting spots for free (or cheap)...
Well, if we take NHM up on his offer, there is a short run I'd like to try in his hometown. NHM, I'll shoot you a PM about it and find out if it's a cool spot to run or not (hoping you know of it).
Not so much the date but the location (and permission). NH is still in a 'No more than 10' in public places. Just showing up on a business may not be a good idea.. Thinking on their behalf here..
I've rolled into a few woods spots that are Public and remote, but still fairly small (room for...
Real shame.. We're outside, like in the lot and coming in to purchase. This is all nuts..
You're willing', I'm in to meet up. You sure there's not a park / panic area nearby we can use? Curious if the Franklin Falls area is open?
There's a N/S Route called the Hamster Run. Done by the 2 wheeled folks and stated as a few spots only passable by them. Still looks pretty cool! I have the file (believed I've posted it here before) if you don't find it.
More progress has happened and will post a few pic's soon. The exterior is coming along and have moved to the rear storage compartments as the roof is being fiberglassed. My gaskets for the roof are here and the latches come in a few days which should be about right for timing.
My thoughts are...
