So been in Colorado most of my life but have yet to explore Wyoming till now. Got a couple of guys from work that want to do a trip there but I am just unsure of really where to go. We were wanting to stay more southern but open to suggestions. Would also like to keep it mild but here is a list...
not sure on the A/H for my battery it is a spare truck battery I had laying around. I will be switching to a deep cycle battery here pretty soon. I had also thought about doing solar as I have the roof space to mount one on my roof rack. haven't made up my mine which is why I haven't moved in a...
So I actually use a battery in the bed of my truck that runs the fridge and the lights on the roof rack. I also have a usb and cigarette plug there to be able to charge devices. We used the fridge in 80 to 90 deg weather and it worked awesome being in the bed with the topper. I had the fridge...
This might be a bit of a dumb question but does the fact that I am using a normal truck battery instead of a deep cycle battery matter? if so why? I know the deep cycles can be run down and still be brought back but would it react differently to a low power drain than the battery I am currently...
It has been a thought of mine to run a solenoid off of the alternator to allow the truck to charge both batteries but not allow the 2nd battery to draw power off of the 1st battery. Up until now this has t been an issue as the most we have done is run my roof rack light for 3 or 4 hrs. I will...
I have really been looking into a solar panel for the roof of my truck to keep that battery topped off. We run all of our led lights and charging device station also off of that battery.
So we picked up the Costway 63QT fridge and fell in love with it from the moment I unpacked it. We ran it for a total of about 30hrs in the back of the truck hooked to a secondary truck battery that is not wired to the charging system of the truck. started the day at 13.2 volts and the fridge...
Picked up this fridge/ freezer off of Amazon. It is the Costway 63QT fridge/freezer. So far this tings works amazingly well. I will be making a slide for the back of the truck this weekend. I will post pics when I am done.
I am down for a day trip or overnight. Also check out a new app called COTREX. It was put out by state of Colorado for all state and federal land use for everything from hiking to 4x4 trails
I was thinking of making the next one on my CNC at work and engraving the function just below the switch. If I get around to that I will post some pics
had family come in and are leaving Saturday so I will not be able to make it. sorry everyone. someone take some pics and post them. hopefully I will be able to make the next one.
I try to be frugal from time to time and one of the things that I needed recently was a switch panel for the cab of my truck for some auxiliary lighting I am running. let me know what you guys think. switches were sourced from Amazon.
It all depends on what you have going on in your truck bed. Security will be better. The rotopax are only a couple of inches thick and would work well in that void below the bed rail up against the side of the bed
