Thanks, High Plains Drifter, just the info I needed.

Hi Folks, I've searched on the forum but couldn't find a clear answer. I'm selling my 2016 Fleet that has been mounted on my 2016 Tacoma with a 6' bed and I have a potential buyer with a 2nd Gen Tacoma 6' bed. Are they interchangeable? Many thanks.

Just FYI, there now appear to be at least 3 large battery manufacturers producing 100ah Group 31 low temperature batteries (that is, with internal, BMS-driven heating elements): Battle Born (see above) LifeBlue RELION Of interest, the Battle Born set-up incorporates a manual on/off switch...

I have a 2016 Tacoma 4x4 SR5 with a 2016 Fleet. I initially wanted to keep my truck as stock as possible because my camper is on the truck only for 3-6 months of the year, but on continuous months-long trips. I initially upgraded to Cooper Discoverer AT3 E-rated tires and Firestone airbags...

****SOLD**** Brand new, unused box of 4, complete with all original hardware. They didn't fit my application, so am selling them for $120 + shipping (Continental US). Please PM me if interested. For more information, see https://www.torklift.com/rv/derringer-handle Thanks for looking! Jeff

Here's a rough schematic of the brackets and mounting points. With exception of the bottom bracket, I used existing mounting points. This entailed removing the grab handle and lower rear step. Here's photo of the bottom bracket, which required bolting through the bottom cleats and floor pack...

Doff, I mounted a box on my 2016 Fleet, but used a lightweight custom-made dry box rather than an Aluminess box. I didn't want to add a heavy bumper with swing-outs, although that would be the obvious choice. See photos below. I've used it for two 4-month long summer/fall trips totaling about...

Photo of shunt location. Note that I also upgraded battery cabling to 2/0.

Photo of where I drilled holes to run wires from kitchen cabinet to battery cabinet.

As a follow-up to the questions I asked in this thread, and the helpful answers I received, I'm providing a few details and photos of my install of a Victron 100v/20a MPPT controller and Victron 712 battery monitor in my 2016 Fleet w/front dinette. Hopefully this will be helpful to others with a...

I just upgraded my 2016 Fleet from a PWM controller to the Victron 100/20. I have two 75ah batteries and two 100W flexible panels and I may add a 100W portable to the mix, which the 100/20 will handle. You might also consider adding a Victron battery monitor while you are installing the...

I'm surprised that the problem of not being able to charge a LIPO4 battery when it's temperature falls below 32 deg or so has barely been mentioned here (except for Zirdu, post #20). I too am interested in making the switch for all of the other reasons noted here. I'm installing a Victron...

Vic, Thanks, very helpful, and gotcha on all* negs moved to shunt far side. Jeff *to be clear, except for battery #1 neg to battery #2 neg parallel jumper cable

Thanks, Desert Scruff and Vic. I may end up mounting in the cabinet above the batteries, though I hate to lose the space. I'll install the temp sensor, too, then. And apologies to the OP for hijacking his/her thread! Another couple of questions: My two 12V AGM batteries are wired in parallel...

Jack, Timely post. I have the same need. I'm just about to buy and install a Victron 100/20 in my 2016 front dinette Fleet. I'll also (finally!) be installing the Victron BM at the same time. What vintage is your fleet? I have the factory hot water system, so I think I have a different setup...

Late to the party here, but another option is a product called Marine Hypervent (or similar products) http://www.hyperventmarine.com/products.html. Very lightweight, 3/4" thick. Hypervent is recommended in many RV and marine forums and is what I use. It's a bit expensive, about a $80-90 to...

Should also have said that I have two 75ah AGM batteries that came from the factory with my 2016 Fleet.

David, Over the past 3 years, my camper has been on my truck 4-6 months out of the year (between May-October). 95% of its use has been in the Intermountain West. For example, this summer I was in WY, ID, and MT July-October, with all of the usual weather and conditions one would expect, from...

David, I don't know if my panels qualify as part of the "new crop," but I'm using two 100 Watt GoPower flexible panels https://gpelectric.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/SPEC_FLEX-100_RevD.pdf. They were installed in April 2016 by AT in Prescott at the time I picked up my 2016 Fleet, so they...

Thanks for posting, Vic. Very nice. What material did you use to make the faring itself?

Photos would be great. Thanks. Jeff
