Trust me, your situation is certainly not unique. Enjoy the fishing in Galveston over the holiday!

I've been camping for decades and I'm finally approaching a time when I don't think I could do any better in terms of gear: My Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon gets me to all the places I want to be. OzTent RX4 is spacious, quick to setup, and of high quality. Can't imagine a better ground tent...

Love my OzTent RX4 which includes the complete annex. I've had numerous tents over the years . . . but none of this quality and ease of setup. The photo without the annex attached is my "summer" setup; the "winter" setup includes the annex. I keep the rainfly attached even during takedown and...

I own a SnoMaster 56L Fridge/Freezer. I would never consider going back to a single zone unit. I can set the temps for each of the two zones/compartments separately . . . both as fridge, both as freezer, or one fridge and the other freezer. One compartment is bigger than the other. I keep my...

I'm starting to simplify. I have a number of stoves including the dual burner Coleman (dual fuel). I've settled on the following to keep things simple and to limit all the crap I carry: Weber Q2200 (love the fold out platforms on each side). This is used for grilling meats, cooking pizzas...

Like you, I have a 2017 JKUR. I've added two Odyssey PC1500 batteries as a "house" bank in the rear. My factory starting battery just went kaput, so I replaced it with a yellow-top Optima. I run my SnoMaster 56L fridge/freezer off the house bank. This is my daily driver and the...

Against my religion to use AC . . . but, a heater is allowed during the winter[emoji3] (EDIT: I did cool off at night with me DeWalt fan which uses my power tool 20V batteries)

I enjoyed the weekend at the Expo. A little warm for October; the cold front would have been welcome a few days earlier.

What is the cost at the gate? I visited the site yesterday and the pre-registration option is gone . . . I assume the price was listed on these pages that are no longer there.

Check out SnoMaster. I have a Classic 56D (59 quart) dual zone fridge/freezer. https://www.snomasterusa.com/ Compare to Dometic . . . but make sure to compare with all the accessories taken into account. For example, the SnoMaster comes standard with the transit bag and wireless remote. It...

Size is the only issue . . . how much room all of this takes in the rear of my JKU. Would I change anything? Fridge/freezer? No. I need 56 quarts and I LOVE the quality & performance of the SnoMaster. Batteries? No. With the cage, they take up as little room as possible and I expect them to...

A couple of screen shots of the LCD display for the 40A MPPT controller: In this image the solar panel's output is going primarily to recharging the battery. The load shown is a couple of small monitoring devices (including the MT50). You can see that the MPPT controller is taking in 14.7V...

I may also test out the Renology 160W flexible solar panel. It doesn't have the operating voltage or the efficiency of the ACOPOWER panel, but it does provide more watts. So, the 120W v 160W comparison will not be apples to apples . . . but, I'd like to see what the actual results would be in...

Actually, ACOPOWER says that the 40A MPPT controller works with "sealed, gel, and flooded" batteries on page 1 of their instruction manual. AGM is considered "sealed" as far as I can tell. Regardless, I chose the USER profile in the configuration to precisely state the charging parameters for...

I'm in NW Austin and would love to meet up. We eat mostly in Cedar Park & Round Rock.

Welcome from Austin (or from my office in Round Rock)!

I just now realized you have a JK and not a JKU. You'll be strapped for space in the rear for a fridge, won't you? Have you removed the rear seat? My son runs his JKR with the rear seat removed most of the time.

Still running the stock starting battery in my '17 JKUR. I've added an sPod (8-switch) to run my auxiliary lights, comms (CB & Ham), and winch solenoid (cut-off). A couple of months ago, I purchased a SnoMaster 56 dual zone fridge/freezer. Trying to run it off of the 12V plug in the rear just...

I've driven manuals for 45 years . . . and I do enjoy them in sports cars. My Jeep JKUR is auto and my son's JKR is standard. I enjoy my off and on-road driving much more than he does. On-road in heavy traffic and offroad in some circumstances are holy hell. I'll never purchase another...

Hey, I'm using the same battery for my house bank. I'm still using my stock starting battery. The house bank is located in the rear of the JKU along with my SnoMaster fridge/freezer. I'm using this battery cage . . . Artec Industries Odyssey PC 1500 Back-to-Back Battery Mount. I think this...
