    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New FWC Solar Panels

    all I know is an air gap is required/recommended by solar installers and resellers like overland solar. They dissipate heat off the back side. If the panel heats up, efficiency is reduced and it fails faster....google tells me so (and overland solar, the reseller of these panels told me)...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New FWC Solar Panels

    Mainly heat related issues with flexible panels occur when the panel is applied directly to a surface, not allowing it to breathe on the underside. These panels are not applied directly to the roof. They are also installed with some supports that make them more rigid than just a panel flapping...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Mounting Bike fork mount

    If you are OK with mounting it like that, go for it. I wouldn't. BTW the North shore rack "attaches" to the fork closer to the headtube. The way these bikes are being mounted is farther away from the headtube, thus more force is being applied to those weld point in the bike frame. Glad you are...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Mounting Bike fork mount

    Are you supporting the frame in some way besides just attaching it by way of the fork? if not, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you are going to have a failure in that headtube sooner or later. That's gotta be a lot of repetitive force on the tube especially when traveling down...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Tacoma MPG w/ FWC?

    my opinion ... You should keep your truck small based on this "...but fear it's too big of a rig for the trails I like to do." If a larger truck is going to stop you from doing what you enjoy doing, you are going to regret your decision even with more space. It's far easier to shrink the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West More Power! USB Charger upgrade for the camper

    I'll throw out another need for intelligent chargers, but ones that do not charge to 100% capacity. Not to derail this install conversation, but I guess I will a bit..charging to 100% is detrimental to the life of your batteries...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West What Brand is the 160 watt Solar Panel FWC Provides?

    This was changed to overland solar correct? These attached to a rigid backing so they are not glued to roof. Gluing flexible panels to roof will kill them quickly, as they need to be able to cool...
