    Planning stage - San Jose to Alaska (WIP)

    I've been up from San Jose, CA to Prudoe Bay twice. The Stewart-Cassier Highway from just north of Smithers, BC to the Yukon border was far better than the AlCAN Highway but I guess you could travel up one way and return the other. Once you get into the Yukon, Highway 4 (Robert Campbell...

    OK, thanks guys. Looking at options now. I understand there are brands with a solar charge controller and MPPT input...if I'm going to spend money, I might as well do it right.

    12v Basics

    I'd like to add a second battery in my 2019 Silverado (just because there's room and a second battery tray already there).
