    night vision driving inexpensively to your offroad camp spot... Lanmodo

    No, you'd use TWO pvs-14's, and that's just to maintain depth perception. Field of view is reduced in just about all NVG. Save for some of the exclusively high end 4/6 tube headsets.

    night vision driving inexpensively to your offroad camp spot... Lanmodo

    Let's stick to just the night vision topic, not all these end of the world kind of talks.

    night vision driving inexpensively to your offroad camp spot... Lanmodo

    Does it work? Yes. Does it work well? Ehh. Do you have any depth perception? No. If you really want something like this, two PVS-14's with G3 tubes and a IR source wins hands down. Or if there's moonlight, no need for IR source. I get this all the time when talking to people about guns...

    Resistor fire

    OP is already trying to sort out what's going on. Ambiguous/contradictive/retorical comments aren't all that helpful when things are in a state of confusion already.

    Resistor fire

    You posed " Why do you think the GP relay had 23 volts run through it? "

    Resistor fire

    It's doubtful that the resistor would ever fail in this circuit. It's just half of the voltage divider. The glow plugs are the other half and that half is divided into 8, which is what causes the cascade failure. Honestly one dead plug isn't likely to have much effect. Two, probably not much...

    Massey Ferguson 40 tractor

    So I split the tractor and got the "bullet" out of it along with the pump. Splitting it wasn't that bad at all. Those long bolts worked great. I've put the tractor back together. And today I picked up a 135 to pull all the PTO and 3pt parts off off. Everything came off pretty easy. But there's a...

    Resistor fire

    Because the glow plug system in the CUCV runs off the 24v side, it goes through the resistor bank on the firewall as I mentioned earlier to step down to 12v through a voltage dividing circuit.

    Resistor fire

    If the glow plugs are showing no resistance and an open, then unfortunately they're burnt up. The CUCV uses a resistor on the firewall that works as a voltage divider circuit. The problem is the fact the glow plugs are 12v. When a glow plug fails, that means the restive value of the rest of...

    HMMWV prices are sure coming up

    There's absolutely no reason to attack other forums. Let's stop with the arguing about what forum is better.

    HMMWV prices are sure coming up

    I'm a little confused? We have a separate section just for the HMMWV family here?
