Thanks for the info so far. I am building a teardrop camper and am sizing the battery. I want to go smaller because it’s less weight on the tongue. My typical amp hour use is 15 AH. That is for a typical camping day 70-80 degrees days with mid 30’s to 40’s at night, charging phones and iPads...

After much searching on the web I found this chart. Very useful because it breaks it down in by seasons. Summer temp was around 90 degrees, winter was around 30. Interior temp was 23 degrees F. I'm going to have to rethink the fridge. A 100 watt panel puts out about 30 amp hours in a good...

I am sizing the battery for my teardrop camper. I want to size for a future refrigerator freezer combo. I have read they draw from 2 to 4 amps while running, Start up is more like 5 to 10 amps. Snowmaster is the only manufacture that listed a typical run time at 12 hours out of 24. That model...

Anyone know the current price? We don't have a Costco membership but have been thinking about getting one. Todd

What's with the patches? Is it a thing that people have personal patches that they hand out to people they meet? Todd

Wow great pictures. I need to get a passport so we can get up there. Todd

Hey sorry to read about the loss of a family member. Always a tough time. There are six total in the cabin. Two by the slide out shelf and two each side in the for cabinets just behind the reading lights. Computer, cameras, and drone batteries will probably be charged while we drive using the...

When I moved out here I was surprised by how many black or dark cars there are here. I was talking to a co-worker about it and he has a buddy that sold cars at a huge dealer. They took a laser thermometer and took reading in a ton of cars. They found the amount of glass and interior color (dark)...

Where can you watch? I would love to catch it. I have an empty lot next to me that someone bought to build a house and shop on. I was talking to the guy and find out he builds ULTRA4 cars/buggies. He was a full time crew chief for a KOH team for a lot of years. Sounds like he will be a fun...

Great idea and job. I see something like this in the future for our Jeep. Todd

I got a Cortisone shot in my shoulder and can actually get some time working on the teardrop again. But It's a rainy Sunday, I was planing on spraying some Raptor Liner today but not sure that will happen. So will try to get caught up on the build thread. Next up was paint. I was going to stray...

I didn't notice if you will be camping or hotels. Keep in mind it will be cold at night in the mountains. We would look for deals at ski resorts for rooms and camp a few night and a night or two in a room. You can find some deals that time since it's off season (not Moab). My girls loved when we...

I lost a bunch of pictures on the frame build. All the ones with the fenders, which is probably good because I'm not sure I'm happy with them. When I started building I wanted the same wheels and tires that we had on the Jeep. We still have the stock Rubicon wheels with a 33X10.5 tire. My plan...

The next step was the frame. Most people start their build with the frame, but because I knew when I started the build I was going to have the foot sugary I wanted to have the cabin started hoping there would be easy things for me to do while I recover. Which did work out. But the thing that...

I jumped the gun a little with the last photo of the frame, I skinned the outside with .040 aluminum. This was probably one of the worst job on the whole build. Hot little pieces of hot aluminum flying everywhere. And the aluminum would melt on the router bit, I even went out and got a...

I have some more I can update soon. Had a shoulder/ neck injury that has set me back. Once I can sit through an MRI (tried twice now and the pain is to much) we can figure out where the problem is. But I am planing on getting something done on the camper this weekend. Todd

I had my wife read some trip reports with both expo trailers with RTT's and campers (teardrops). She read the pluses and minuses of each in real life trips. By people that are not trying to sell you on what they have. The reports are just written like this is where we went, this is what we did...

Those are cool little trailers. We saw it at Expo. The wife wanted something a something with a little more room though.

This was the year my wife and I were going to do the full experience. I’ll have our teardrop mostly done by then and seemed like a fun thing to do. We went on a day pass two years ago and thought it was okay. When I started to check out prices we are looking at close to $600 for the full and...

Was there anything in the packaging that said you need a license to use some Chanel’s? Todd
