I’m a bit worried about the temperature. I am hoping that a rifle case would afford me some space to insulate the battery and add a couple of fans that’ll trip with a thermometer.

Thanks so much. I feel reassured that I’m not doing something stupid. Lol. I also have the exact harbor freight case your talking about. .

Thanks so much. I appreciate your help!

Thanks. I was a bit worried about weight as well. I think I’m gonna stick to maybe 1200 watts and the battery I’m looking at only weighs about 24lbs. I’m sure the dcdc charger will add a few more pounds but I figured it would be ok. I just never seen it done before so I think I’m missing...

I’m considering putting a lithium battery and a dcdc charger in a rifle case and mounting it on my roof rack. I have never seen a picture of a rig set up like that so I was wondering if this would be an incredibly stupid idea. Lol. I have a wife and 2 kids who travel with me so I don’t have very...

Thank you so much. I’ll check that link out.

Hi. I am planning on adding a dual battery set up to my truck and I had a quick question. Everywhere I am looking at recommends a solenoid to isolate the batteries. I currently already have a 120 amp relay installed tied to the ignition because I wanted more acc electronics. Would the relay do...

Thanks for sharing. Let’s keep the posts going because us as parents with kiddos dealing with ASD need all of the support we can get. My kiddo loves the bumpy drives and as long as we have an open area at our camp ground, she could play for days by herself. It’s just hard walking places...

Thank you so much for the input. I guess we’ll be renting a truck to go to the beach then. Lol

Hi, My wife has been wanting to do an overnight beach trip for a little while now and the only thing really stopping us is my fear that my truck would later on turn into a rust bucket. I know salt water and beach sand is not good for my truck frame. But I was wondering if any of you have gone on...

In addition to making sure the power wire is fused at the battery, make sure that if you have to add an extension to the cord, that the wire gauge is still appropriate for the amps and the wire length.

I’m relatively new as well but I’ve learned a lot from the last year. I would download Gaia maps and turn on the layers that show private property and public lands. Look for a dirt road in a forest and you will most likely run into a camp spot or 2 traveling on it. I would stick to areas that...

Thank you for sharing. I know it’s an old thread but I just stumbled upon it while looking up members’ experiences with family with ASD. My 1 year old was just diagnosed the other day with it and I’m just wondering how Overlanding would look like when she gets older. Your blogs give me a lot of...

I’d stay away from cleaning it with any chemicals. Eventually the waterproofing will wear itself out due to the suns uv rat and you would have to reapply it. However cleaning it should really only involve talking off the mattress cover to laundry. The most important thing about keeping a tent...

I’m always under no matter what. I have a kid and my wife all the time so I take safety seriously at all times.
