Mattresses came in today, custom cut, 6" thick, a bit over $800 for all 4 with covers.
Put the generator mount on. Styled similar to hydraulic tank shield. .135" corten steel, aluminum wheel cups to mount generator. A strap will go over the top. Makes for easy removal.
A combination, I'll have a shore power option. I have a 3800 running watt generator (Harbor Freight Predator 5000), the battery system hasn't been fully defined but it getting narrowed down - currently looking at Victron Quattro II 3K fed into a Victron autotransformer to make the 240 split...
Great info! I want to check my C7 at some point. So a shunt vs a clamp meter? Can you explain why (I have a clamp meter that can do DC and would obviously be easier the a shunt setup).
Fujitsu 09LZBH1, has the most efficient ratings for both cooling and heating of any brand. Supposedly a reliable competitor with Mitsubishi (their 9kbtu is a decent amount lower on efficiency - this on is seer 33 I think Mitsubishi is 25). This is the low temp unit and provides efficient heat...
Finished up the mini split frame. Using silicone rubber isolators for the lower feet and have isolators on the top side of the case to prevent the mini split from being pushed forward or to the side from any kind of off-roading or braking forces. The feet on these things is just not built for...
Could you please explain the usage of these? I'm having trouble imagining how these would function.
Seems they would just slip off the pins and then allow the nut to rotate. I'm guessing there is something I'm missing.
Seems they would require use of the previous split collar locks?
Haven't checked pressure, been working on more critical things (system still works, just have to push the specific button a couple times - it errors out after 30s of deflate time).
The relief valve has a spring and there is a little winged nut thread locked in place. A little heat allows the...
It was at 5.5 and I was getting the error, I increased it to 7-8 and the error went away for a while. This is in the dana diagnostic software. Also verified the pressure sensor is reading correctly with a mechanical gauge. It got colder and the issue popped up again...guessing oil in the filters.
20 psi (or anything a couple psi off expected) will cause the controller to error out after 30 seconds of dumping and show to solid lights between the target and higher pressure selections.
I fully rebuilt the wheel valves except for those filters everything else has been replaced.
Fully rebuilt the PCU as well.
I adjusted the relief valve to get the proper feedback within the Dana software as you can view relief valve pressure.
I haven't looked too much but if I see a new...
I adjusted the pcu relief valve pressure, worked great for a while. Guessing I have too much contamination of wheel valve filters as it had more issues when temp dropped. Per spec it has a 1 or 2 psi tolerance...seems a bit sensitive. I have new filters coming and the system still works fine as...
System is working pretty well after rebuilding all wheel valves and associated seals(and a few CTIS hub seals). Still not super happy on deflate - sometimes requires a few pushes of the button due to a relief valve feedback error. Very finiky system that doesn't have well defined specifications...
Kids really wanted to sleep in the MTV so threw some sleeping bags in there and tied the frame up to the wall. Not really very comfy and those sleeping bags are very noisy but hey it was an adventure for them. Brought the cat in there too.
So you have a bolt to limit overtravel in the front? Personally I avoided rubber in this application because it breaks down very quickly under high deflection. It does have the advantage of nonlinear spring rate but if you exceed it, it is destroyed(your overtravel bolt can prevent that)...
