    Redarc or ...?

    I am NOT a RedArc expert….That being said, Your alternator recharges your vehicle battery As you are driving. We have done all of our overlanding with the jeeps only battery for years. Never needed to have my Jeep jumped because we didn’t use its power after we turned the Jeep off. We relied on...

    Redarc or ...?

    Well I hit enter, and purchased the Manager30/RedVision and the 1000w inverter TODAY! I’m now trying to decide if I am going to go with a Expion 360 100ah battery, Lion Energy 100ah, or the Dakota Lithium 100ah…. I will be installing in the rear of my JK up on the Vector shelf I have installed...

    What's do you think the most impactful first upgrade is to a rig?

    I agree with the Tires ….but needs to be properly coupled with a lift. We found it to be very important to “look into our future adventure wants”, and start our lift build and tire selection to meet all those goals. Once you have that done, all your remaining needs and modes will be based on the...

    Lithium Battery Heating Project

    May I ask how this worked out for you? As I am buying the REDARC /Redvision setup, in the near future, so I feel I should make sure to address this potential issue as well.

    Issue with ARB fridge screw-in plug. Please help.

    Your plug should look like this....The socket should have a male key that will fit in the channel at the 6 o'clock. once lined up you have to push the plug in until it stops then screw the outer sleeve to keep the plug in the socket. If they are not compatible you might want to make sure the...

    Redarc or ...?

    My wife and I have been trying to decide if the Redarc RedVision set up is what we should get for our 2013 Jeep JK 4dr. I currently get by with one battery in the engine bay and a Goal zero 400...(you can read that as being pathetic). I have, from front to back...Winch, ARB air compressor, Ham...

    Is the Overlanding community killing itself

    This was/is spot on.... My wife and I spend our time looking for the nice to great places to go see. I would MUCH rather have an old Land Rover decked out for our adventures, but I cannot afford that. I can afford my jeep, and we have a blast with it. It has never failed to get us where we have...

    Has overlanding become elitist ?

    That is so funny that you picked a Spork!!! I told my wife, when she was kitting out our eating stuff, that I eat with a fork and spoon. If a spork lands on my plate it will disappear afterward. Never to be found again.

    Has overlanding become elitist ?

    This is a VERY interesting thread. I feel I can see the imbalance within the Overlanding community just as much as any other endeavor. I used to prefer to run my competition pistol bone stock. As I have gotten older I have opened my eyes to some technology, Red dots. Positive upgrade with great...

    US West Ham Radio Weekly NET

    I wanted to take the Guess work out of which specific size Small Medium Large etc....I have the same radio. I currently have it mounted to my Vector Bar with a 67Designs ball and arm. But this setup would allow me to stow it out of sight when not driving the Jeep.

    Need opinions on this setup, please.

    I have my Ham license and I've installed my YAESU FTM-400XDR into my Jeep. Haven't been able to make contact with anyone yet... BUT I did get my vanity callsign approved :) N1DON I would ask you this question though. I have an SPOD so I ran the power wires to the SPOD instead of the battery...
