Ok, ok I'm going... Bringing my offspring. I'll be there for the convoy as well. -Aaron

Awesome! Also get a 5k resistor (forgot to add it to the list) you may already have one laying around. (or I can give you one next time I see you). I'm sure you can do it, and I can definitely help.

I still haven't decided if I'm going this year.... I'll figure it out and let you all know for sure either way. -Aaron

Here's a photo of the hardware fully assembled. In the top section is the bluetooth module and a 5k resistor on the "one-wire" temp sensor. There are two temp sensors daisy chained together (there can be up to 32). Here's a sensor in the bottom of the box is a seeeduino (arduino uno clone...

I went up there this weekend 5/18/19), made it all the way to the campsite. There was few patches of snow, but mostly clear. -Aaron

Yeah I got mine a few months ago. I think I was one of the first for the 2nd gen tacos so I got in before there were any lead times, it still took about 3 weeks to get them to me in WA, but I couldn't be happier with the quality. -Aaron

That's a fair trade!

I bought rock-sliders from https://www.ragofabrication.com they're in Kerrville, TX -Aaron

Cost about $40 bucks in parts: 1 - Seeeduino (3.3v Arduino Clone) (Seeeduino 4.2 (CFAPN15062) from Crystalfontz ) 2 - DS18B20 Temp Sensors (One-Wire Temperature Sensor (WRDOWY17) from Crystalfontz ) 1 - BLE BluTooth Module ( ) 1 - 12v Buck Converter ( ) 1 - 5k resistor to pull-up the temp...

Thanks for the offer! I'm basically done for now though. I'm going to go a different direction with the solar panel and controller I think... I'm going to go with a Redarc so I can go the dual battery route and solar controller in one. So I've got to source all the parts for that project...

Doh! and a good reason to get out of town! :confused:

@britz I don't know if it will be open by then or not, maybe wishful thinking. I'll check the conditions. Maybe the weekend after Overland Rally? @chuckoverland That'd be the 29th/30th So much to pack in in a single summer!

How does 6/15 (sat) & 6/16 (sunday) Sound for ya'll? It's Fathers Day that Sunday... I'd be game to go a day earlier or stay a day later as well, if that helps. I'd like to work out the date before I set it in stone in a Rally Point, so let me know @Captain Chaos @chuckoverland @Paul Daniels...

I'm definitely game on the Magruder!

Looking at doing this run again this year... When's a good date/time/day to make it? I had a blast last time. Hoping you can make this time @Captain Chaos Let me know who's down! -Aaron

Sweet! We'll definitely talk some shop. I've got so many ideas... I just need to start assembling them :)

Awesome! I'm free Sunday afternoon. I'll message you.

Right on! My switchpro should be showing up today. I'll be fabricating a mount and wiring it up this weekend, then I can start wiring in all the lights I've got sitting in my closet lol. I've got enough room to work by myself in my garage, but this stuff is definitely more fun with friends...

So I don't know about ya'll but I spent a lot of time sourcing lots of new stuff for my rig this winter... But now I've got a TON of stuff to start building, wiring, installing...Anyone else in the same boat? Need some help? I'm thinking about setting up some sort of meetup to do just that. Work...

BTW, Rago is currently running a sale with $200 off their rock sliders: Off-Road Rock Sliders | Off-Road Accessories & Fabrication Shop
