I doubt they’d upgrade the gauge wire, never hurts to ask. The amount of voltage drop is quite small but it all adds up, that’s for sure. The solar wires are hidden behind the front lift panels on the camper. There is enough slack that it can expand to cabin height with the top up and simply...

Close to a hundred or more. I spend two nights a week in it for work. I’d have more if I didn’t tear my ACL last spring. Only two weeks camped out skiing this year. Many climbing and camping trips last summer as well. Just had surgery, so next winter I’ll be back to 5 nights a week in the camper...

If ordering a new shell, you can simply ask them to upgrade to a Blue Sea fuse box. It’s what I did. It made adding solar, trimetric, iota charger and other electric loads very simple and organized in that tight space.

I use an insulated water jug made by Stanley https://www.campsaver.com/stanley-adventure-water-jug.html?gclid=Cj0KCQiA-qDTBRD-ARIsAJ_10yLPUvnCeX6OBTA2Rjd-Rs-WDZdghU1YsquIdfzkTJlLgFgsoNiwuyMaAjNrEALw_wcB

The thing is if your using the heater and only have 5” on top of the camper, it’s the water slurry that develops you might not notice. This compacts the snow and weighs much more than 5” of snow by itself. I’ve come back at noon and noticed a slight bowing to the roof with just 6” on top.

Hey guys! glad to see your finding this thread useful. I am actually out as of last week due to planned ACL surgery from blowing my knee out last spring. As for wha I do for snow removal, I use the 6'foldable ladder that goes in the conduit carrier I put on the top of the truck. I am able to...

So, after all this I thought I’d wrap it up for those who may have the same questions down the line. All that needed to be done was a negative to the bus bar that was already set to the trimetric shunt. Ground chassis to the same bar and positive to the battery. I’m all set. Took about 30 min...

Ah, that's right. Its been a while since I hooked up the solar. Thanks for the reminder. I had a hard time telling just by looking in there, I need to clean up my wiring a bit, lol. What did you use for the chassis ground for the Iota? Just the negative bus bar? Where did you put the plug in...

OK, so a few more questions now that I've decided what to do. I have in my possession the IOTA IQ4, my plan is to use the 15amp plug linked above for plugging into shore power; and likely a generator this winter (GASP!!!). A wiring question I have is about the chassis ground for the IOTA? I...

So, you had a separate plug to your battery charger? Or is it wired off the marine plug?

So, if I were to put a shore power plug on, what would be wisest? Use a 30amp for versatility and use a dongle for 15amp (more common?) connections? Or just a simple 15amp? The NOCO charger looks nice! Would I run this through my trimetric monitor setup? Does it have programmable charging...

Thanks so much! I was looking for that first video. I'll start here and report back.

So, after a year and a half of FWC ownership I have come to a point of needing shore power hookup in my rig. I'm currently running a fleet with 160w of solar and 2, 6v AGM batteries wired in series with 220 Ah storage. I run this with a trimetric charger and monitor. So far it's been great...

How can you get these into the yak tracks without removing the end caps? I've got a kink in my passenger side rail about 3' from the back and I want to be able to move the cross bar to the end but can't because I don't have a nut behind the kink. I've been reluctant to take the end cap off due...

Just a shot in the feathers from this spring. A cool little perch that I had to back up into up a 4x4 hill. Fun stuff We were climbing at the sunshine wall

Is the main switch to kill power off?

Looks good! I rock an 03 Taco too! Love it.

Likewise! Not everybody gets my sense humor. My understanding of your post was $1000 AND pay for a ferry ticket. If that's the case, the last time I took the ferry was $1700 each way! If so, that's nearly $4500 (1k+1.7k x2)on top of $14000 is $18500. Cheaper than that exact build new but...

****, by the time you conform to this guy's demands for the honor of buying his abused camper you could buy a brand new one! Good luck, bud.
