I started with Diehard Platinums (rebadged Odysseys) and no longer made. I also had a National Luna dual battery system which turn out not to work very well under the JK hood, it doesn't care for the heat. Both Platinum's died within 2 years, partly due to the malfunctioning NL system...

I had the Cobra 75 and I ditched it for a full size CB. It was hard to hear, hard to read, and not great to operate one handed.

I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to charge but the best charge you can get while driving is going to come from the alternator. The most efficient way for the ARB to be powered is from a dedicated 10 gauge 12 volt outlet, like the kit ARB sells. The factory 12v outlets are smaller gauge...

I just uninstalled and re-installed on both my phone -Android 9 and my tablet -Android 8.1 and both appear to be working now. Not sure what the issue was there.

Anyone else having issues with the app crashing on Android when selecting the premium layers? As soon as I try to add a new map layer it crashes on both Android 8.1 and the new Android 9. I think I sent feedback with logs but it crashes so not sure the feedback was sent. Addtional...

I made the mistake of leaving my Lifetime very full of water on the way out of our last excursion and it did leak a bit. It was in our off-road trailer which was bouncing around pretty good on the trail and still the leakage was minimal. As an after thought I added an 90 degree garden hose...

The Gobi crossbars are the way to go!! So much easier!

I used Gaia GPS on our Mojave Road trip and really liked it's functionality and the Nat Geo maps. I had it running on both my Google Pixel XL and my old Samsung Tab 7 inch. The tablet is running Android 4.1.2 and while it worked ok in February it's getting pretty tough to run Gaia on it. No...

No problem, Midland has a sale coupon running for Mother's Day "MOM20" for 20% off. Ends Monday May14th

I've got one and the Midland 6db antenna to go with it. Couple of my buddies have it as well and we used them on our last trip on the Mohave Road and they worked flawlessly. One of my friends got it just before the trip and just used the mag mount antenna that comes with the radio and we had...

Correct, they are considered propane stoves. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

I am just adding some to the rear of my Jeep JK after our trip across Soda Lake on the Mojave Road, that mud is very corrosive and was flinging everywhere including all over our trailer. I was also concerned with taking out someone else's windshield after coming off the trail. AEV makes a nice...

Nice review, great comparison of old and new!

My InReachSE is pre-Garmin also. The Earthmate app is the Earthmate app, it either works on 4.1.2 or not. So if it works on mine it should work on yours. I say all of this with the caveat that it could stop working with the next app updates as 4.1.2 is very old in the android world and...

I have Gaia running on Android 4.1.2. After some feedback from the Gaia folks, 4.1.2 is about as old an operating system as they support but it does work. It occasionally has a moment when it freaks out but a quick restart of the app fixes it. That would be my suggestion. I also use Garmin...

We've got a couple of these Roav units as well for the last 8 months or so, no complaints so far. I drive from Rancho Palos Verdes to Hollywood and back everyday. I could start an entire YouTube channel with footage from the cam...LOL.

Looks good! While some you say you don't need them, I am really glad I went with electric brakes on my new axle. It's a big load off my Jeep and to be able to modulate the trailer brakes separately over obstacles which is a great advantage.

The picture I wanted to add yesterday to my post...building breakfast!

That's how it's supposed to work, you cook towards the center and then as things are done, you move them to the sides to keep warm. It's a great advantage. When we cook up breakfast sandwiches, we do the bacon first, slide it to the side and then toast the bread, slide that to the side with...

Love our Skottle, we didn't even use our camp stove on our last trip. We've cooked for 6 on it without issue. I really like the size of it, I wouldn't want it any bigger as it would be too much of a hassle to haul around. It's well made and the storage bag is great too. The Skottle...
