    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Where can I find this part? Table leg storage clip.

    How about giving Marty at All Terrain Campers a call. They still use them.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 1500 inverter advise

    Not having any issues with mine. It runs a microwave, laptops, small video projector, phone chargers, etc. Use the proper size wire when you hook it up. It's pretty obvious reading the reviews some people don't read the instructions.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 1500 inverter advise

    I use this guy in my camper and it works great. Not expensive for pure sine wave. Don't use the cables that come with it, use good #0 cable to your batteries. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01COA0UTE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West I need to hear a good new joke

    While riding my Harley, I swerved to avoid hitting a deer, lost control and landed in a ditch, severely banging my head. Dazed and confused I crawled out of the ditch to the edge of the road when a shiny new convertible pulled up with a very beautiful woman who asked, "Are you okay?" As I...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West WTB door or framing for early FWC

    You might want to contact ATC as they work on old Four Wheel Campers and might have some door parts around. They also still use a square corner door, so a new one might be available at reasonable cost. 916-565-1600

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Has anybody had Four Wheel replace a roof?

    I had the roof re-skinned on my Grandby by the guys at ATC a couple years ago. They did a great job, no leaks and it looks factory fresh (I guess it is :unsure: ) .

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Low cost DIY Lithium camper batteries.

    The truck is a ’07 Dodge diesel with a heavy duty (250 amp) alternator which puts out 15 volts as it sits. I run high power HF radio from the truck so the heavy duty electrical system. To drop the 15 volts to 14.4 I’ll simply add a big diode before the BMS. Most diodes have a .6volt drop across...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Low cost DIY Lithium camper batteries.

    The label is based on the cell specs. I just finished them yesterday. Will do a full load test over this week, although quick testing yesterday they looked very good. I'm presently charging them to 14.6V and will test when done. Right now, only one tenth of a volt difference between packs...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Low cost DIY Lithium camper batteries.

    After Rando started this insanity, I figured I'd get off my duff and get a set of LIFEPO's built. It's been an on & off project for a while, but finally finished the batteries yesterday. While not pretty, they do the job. I decided to build them as 200AH rather than 100AH, so 40 cells per...

    Buckland: Wrong flux! Plumbers flux is acid type and should never be used on electrical connections. Here's a link to the correct type: https://www.amazon.com/Alpha-AM51024-3-Ounce-Cookson-Liquid/dp/B002YM0HN2/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1516412738&sr=8-8&keywords=electrical+flux

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Low cost DIY Lithium camper batteries.

    Hi Rando, Hope you don’t mind some input since this is your thread. In regards to the ebay protection/balance board Buckland is using, hooked up as only a balance board, you’re using only half of the board. I use these a lot for small battery projects around here and the 30 amp protection...
