I am SOOOO jealous of your shop. I still need to poly my galley as well. It's my understanding that poly can be sprayed as well. I'm likely going to try that in the spring. A note on the cargo net, I have one in mine, and I'm not a fan. Mine is below my storage, above my feet, and I'm going...

Aything on Amazon that provides a constant 12.4 volts and can handle 20A will work fine. I no longer have that particular setup. I now use a 2k heater for my trailer, and it doesn't have that problem anymore.

Yeah, a buddy of mine has a lava box, and honestly, mine is every bit as good as his setup, except he has a really nice bag.

I bought one of your buddies kits, and it works awesome.

Took the trailer and rig out for the annual black Friday trip.

If you northern folks want to plan a trip down this way, I'd be happy to show you around. I know some pretty amazing spots.

I won't be able to make it to the dinner, but it would be great if you guys could spend some time in southern Idaho. I'd love to be able to meet up at some point this year.

Finished the heater box, and got it mounted to the trailer. Tested it out, and it's given me no issues yet. I ran it for a while yesterday, and again for a few hours today, while I did some work on the inside. It was on low, and still got super toasty! I'm really excited to try this out in a...

Indeed! This is how I end up spending way too much money on superstrut pieces....

Love it! I really like your diy flat rack. That's pretty engenius.

Got the battery heater all wired up yesterday. I didn't turn it on though, since it wasn't really cold enough to need it last night. I also got the canvas glued to the outside of heater box. I'm waiting on a paint try to get here tomorrow, then I can start layering it with paint. I'll be done...

Last night, I was ablt to confirm that all the wiring for the heater is good to go. I'm still having issues getting it to pull fuel through the stand pipe, but it pulls through the fuel line just fine. I'm comfortable enough, that I can close the box up, and start the pmf process. My buddy is...

Just finished testing the new heater to confirm it's working. I'll put it in the box, and test out the wiring and plug in the trailer to make sure everything there is working. Then I'll glue and close up the box. Then I can start wrapping it.

New heater should be here wed, so if that one works fine, I'll need to figure out what to do with other one. I also managed to get the new battery in, and hooked up. I'm likely going to move the solar charger to be above the DC-DC, but we'll see. I currently have to take it out to take the...

OK, so after spending much of the afternoon futzing with the diesel heater, I think I've determined that the control board is bad. It keeps trying and failing to spin up the fan (even when off), and won't fire up the fuel pump or glow plug. It's not the harness (as I've swapped the harness), and...

You say that, but I just ordered a 300Ah battery for my trailer, and recently added 400w worth of solar to it. I'm expecting to push 30+ amps during the summer with the combined 20A DC-DC and solar.

The LiTime charger has solar input as well, right? Does it sense voltage change to determine if the vehicle is running, or is there a trigger wire that turns the charger on? I'm still waiting for my renogy chargers to die, but they haven't yet.... Edited - I answered my own question.

Whelp....looks like the trailer battery is getting upgraded to 300Ah. I was only planning on going up to 200Ah, and not until spring time, but I stumbled across a 300Ah battery, with low temp protection, for under $500.....that was too good to pass up.

I plan on building a similar box for a water heater, which will only go on long trips.

Got some more work done on the heater box this weekend. First step, and this was a hard one....was to cut a 1 1/8 in hole in the side of the trailer for the plug connection. I went with a TY28 aviation style connector, specifically the one linked here: I next got the wires connected, and...
