I've been there 4 or 5 times and the exhibits have never been open. They don't need to be for it to be a nice destination and place to camp. Speaking of CA's Red Rock SP (as opposed to NV's Red Rock SP, also a nice destination), has anyone stopped at Rocket Fizz a bit North of there? I've had...

Berlin-Ichyasaurus (SP?) State Park, NV would be one suggestion.

Ever really looked under the bed? The amount of wasted space under there is amazing. If you're concerned about the battery I'd look at moving it to under the bed.

Oh yeah, I'd do it for me and not because the gumberment told me that I had to!

It's not worth the risk. He was seriously screwed up and would be for the rest of his life. Let's look at it differently; what do you gain from not sealing and venting the battery box? They still need to be somewhere accessible. That puts them at or near an outer wall somewhere. Even if you're...

I met a guy back in '96 (!) at the NESEA Tour del Sol who was using Lithium based batteries in his company's EV's then. He had gotten into the gas cloud created when one of those battery packs over-heated and he spent months in the hospital. I met him nearly a year after he got out of the...

Reminds me of the Steve Martin & Martin Short comedy we watched a while back. Steve Martin comes out on the stage at one point with a banjo and sits down on a stool. "It's been brought to my attention that I ought to explain the differences between a banjo and a guitar. This is a banjo. It has a...

What sorts of features get disabled? This whole epidemic of "we know better than you do what you should have and not have" programming, even if correct, really gets under my skin. I'm going to step off my soap box before I really get started.......

At first I thought that the fine should be increased by at least a factor of 1000, but after reading the comments above I'm also in favor or Community Service picking up other people's trash above and below the Rim. With the stipulation that she can have no electronics on her person or in her...

FWIW I used 6 ga. power and ground cables to connect the camper to the truck. 80A, 285 series breakers at each end. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Bussman+285+series+circuit+breaker&i=automotive I used 6 ga. because it was slightly bigger than Ancor Marine's calculation said was needed for a 3%...

If you've still got a power draw I would one by one continue to pull fuses until you can ID what circuit is consuming the power.

I want to say that some of the awning vendors offer solutions for that gap, but the pool noodle or pipe insulation idea has a great deal of appeal.

I got one today labeled "Past Due Invoice". Since I've never ordered anything from them I was suspicious. One Red Flag! The "Invoice" is an html attachment and my email client could not preview it. Two Red Flags! The text body looks legitimate and they had the correct eddress for Cari @...

A friend went with Rotopax for water cans. The trip 2 weeks ago were their first outing. Nothing thicker would fit in his preferred location, but I'd give them a 2.5 out of 5 stars. Mostly because they're so narrow that they won't remain standing up on anything less than a perfectly level...

I suspect that there is some confusing use of terms going on. To me, a "NATO can" is the same thing as the Wavian metal fuel can, and those look like this: The distinctive features of this design are the weld seam that goes around the middle from top to bottom and back; and the sort-of oval...

The Frontrunner water can may fit the NATO strap. Mine is reasonably close in shape to the NATO fuel can that sits right behind it. I don't have an AT holder though, so no idea how any of that fits and works. If you do buy one of the Frontrunner cans I highly suggest buying the metal upgrade...

X2!

Learn this: https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/free-trial There is a lot of support online as well as many "youtube university" videos on how to work with it. Then you can send drawing files to: https://sendcutsend.com/ This is my first project having them do the cutting, but I've...

I think that's what Craig is referring to. I'd need about a 10 foot long hose. Be careful in buying those, if you need one to do so know that not all of them fit thru an unleaded restrictor. From a can they're fine, but tank to tank won't work. Given how fast my nozzle works I'm holding a full...

Hi Jonathan, That nozzle lacks the essential component that makes the Swiss nozzle work so fast. Note the internal vent tube. That vent allows air to get into the can much more rapidly than any other nozzle that I've seen or used. Also note the additional length of the flex section...

The cam style of nozzle attachment for the NATO cans has the best nozzle option out there. Enough so that I have no intention of ever buying a can with a screw in/on nozzle. Find the "Swiss nozzle" for these fuel cans. One of the Pinzgauer parts places occasionally has them. It can empty the 5...

Prior to the A-14 press release Iridium fones were the only satellite service capable that I know of. Fones, not Spot's and InReach's.

Y'all should just c'mon down to Ventura and shop at The Wharf. I've been buying boots and clothing from them for going on 40 years. http://store.thewharfonline.com/

Sounds to me like you're at the tipping point where putting in a separate fuse block (chose one that uses the same fuses as the truck!) and running a dedicated power feed for the cooler.

I didn't think that it was well known, but nor did I think that it was news either. Note the other names under the Marinco header. Looking at the amazon link above I'm not finding the 10A rating listed. The norm for these is 15A. Did I miss the 10A rating somewhere? The Blue Sea page for the...
