    Solar expert advice needed

    But does your system have a converter? That is the part of my system that I think needs to go. I assume I can just turn off my inverter when plugged into shore power.

    Solar expert advice needed

    Just purchased a 2017 Lance 650 truck camper. It was a very base model, no real solar, only a battery maintainer, no inverter. It has a DC and AC panel, but the battery is a basic marine deep cycle. The camper is designed for shore power with a converter. I have a generator but would prefer to...

    Back after a hiatus with a new ride

    Just checking in after a couple years without much more than a trip or two to the beach. Left the Jeep community a few months ago and joined the full-size community with a slide in truck camper. Plan to build a flatbed over the winter and upgrade the solar. It’s a gently used Lance 650 but was a...

    I apologize to all, been inactive for a while. Took a trip on the TAT that didn't go as planned in the Spring and just got into a new vehicle...about to order my new badge and hopefully get back out there as the temperatures drop some. I will be headed to Overland Expo East for at least a day...

Retiring from the Coast Guard and going to do the Trans American Trail (TAT) for two...

    US East Northern VA / MD Monthly Meetups

    I originally was thinking about buying some more once I got this one and could account for the quality, but the I spoke to a woman at the warehouse I picked it up from that also owns her own importing business and she said the cost of a 20 ft container has skyrocketed since covid. My research...

    US East Northern VA / MD Monthly Meetups

    So I got my new RTT just after Christmas. I imported direct from China an iKamper mini knock-off. From my research, iKamper is made in South Korea and there are several companies selling iKamper clones that are made in China (Torro and Tuff Stuff probably being the best known)...I really like...

    US East Northern VA / MD Monthly Meetups

    Absolutely! I like Assateague too and have my pass good through next September. Getting a little cool out, but I actually think they allow fires on the beach. At least in some areas. I grew up in Hagerstown, MD and went to college in Southern MD so kinda a local still.

    US East Northern VA / MD Monthly Meetups

    I'm North of Fredericksburg in Lorton, I know there are a few around me that are active, but a lot of very silent OB members too...when you look at the map, there are a lot of members, but not many are active on here. I had a meet up at my house last year and got 3 members out...we just sat...

    US East Northern VA / MD Monthly Meetups

    Looks like this thread has been quiet for a bit and I thought I would check in. Not sure if I will make it happen or not, but planning on trying to do Peter's Mill on Saturday morning. No camping, just running the trail if it is open. My last try in January found the trail closed. This will...

    Looking to due the trans American

    I'm aware, I think (making an assumption) the @Hisroad Travels was asking if GAIA had those tracks already without having to buy them from Sam. But I also know Sam updates his regularly and there are a lot of "bad" tracks being marketed that are putting people on private property or in areas...

    Looking to due the trans American

    I don't know for certain and I haven't tried GAIA yet, but from what I understand, the TAT tracks are just waypoints/POI's that are uploaded as GPX...I would assume they will display on whatever map you have chosen/saved to whatever app you are using. If you want the tracks displayed on topo...

    RTT is lightly used and in great shape, has all the accessories and the awning is brand new.

It can be mounted on either driver or passenger side, but when mounted on driver's...
