I think you'll find your cranking amperage is in the 400-500 range, that switch isn't suitable.

I was going to use the equalizer to supply the 3rd battery and I don't plan to use much 12V power unless the engine is running anyway. Mainly just to charge phones etc, the FLiR and spotlight will manily be used when the engine is turning. I was planning to use very large AGM batteries for the...

How are pictures going to help? They are just very bright white lights, not that yellow tinge of the stockers. The military is switching over to these, they are an improvement and the low beams have a nice flat cut-off.

GREAT work, looks like proper German Engineering to me! I was going to do this until I found out about Battery Equalizers and found a new one cheap on eBay.

The difference is AMAZING, both head an tail lights are MUCH brighter than OEM.

Nope, the Saladin was the competition for the Ferret. The Saracen was just an APC, NOT a reconnaissance vehicle.

Myself, good CARC is much better than any primer. As stated above, if the CARC is good just add bedliner after a laquer thinner or MEK wipe.

I don't think you could give me a Saracen. Weak transmission, trouble prone dual hyd. system, 160 hp engine (it's an 8 cylinder Rolls but it's underpowered for the weight of the vehicle) full time 6 wheel drive, a VERY low effective top speed and drum brakes that are marginal.

I've seen them for about $250-350/pair and at that price they are worth it, I love them on the HEMTT (except when they are shining in my eyes).

OK, the way you have the chains, if one device or chain fails the vehicle will be unsecured. The tie downs should be independent of each other. I wouldn't drive around the block with the current arrangement. You need 4 legs MINIMUM and since you are running and tightening a single chain at...

Just too far for more than once a year but we are looking forward to Spring 2011! Lets see how much fuel a M977 HEMTT burns driving 815 miles, one way. At 55-60 mph, it's going to be a LONG drive ;)

I gotta tell you guys, those fuggin LED signals are BRIGHT!!!!!!!!! There are a LOT diode emitters in there.

The beauty of the equalizer is that you are not current limited by the equalizer in the short term. The equalizer's rating is only the amount of current it can transfer, and in the case of the 70 series, they are better than 97% efficient. You can draw as much power as the battery can produce...

I have LED's EVERYWHERE! :jumpin:

Yup, I have them in my HEMTT, I LOVE them!

I've decided to go a different route. Mounting 2 new one wire alternators on the HEMTT's 8V92 seemed kinda like a pain in the butt. I didn't like the idea of a DC-DC converter, I have a dead one of those already and you are limited to the capacity of the converter. I've decided to go the...

Yup, that's the stuff I bought.[thumbzup]

$1.00/foot is WAY expensive! I got a 150' roll of 3/8 for less than $30.00

IMAO, the 211 is the prettiest MV of them all. I loved mine untill it puked 2 transmissions in 70 miles . . . aua

I've had many Limey vehicles, don't forget just because it has a grease nipple doesn't mean grease goes in there. The Brits use mostly gear lube for suspension . . . I use 140 weight of the same, as it leaks out a lot slower than 90. I have a FV432 B81 out of overhaul amongst my spares. I'm...
