Doh, I've seen those in tons of overlanding vehicle pics. Just never on the front. Oddly, never seen one on the beaches out here, but the counties do a pretty good job placing trash cans along the island and big bins for those coming up from PINS where the pavement starts.
Something like that...
Das iz uber !
I like the bag on the front. Not certain what he uses it for but that would come in really handy for recovery get (always covered in mud or sand after a pull).
I wonder what that dragging line attached to the top of the Mog's box is?
Yep, the low voltage cutoff is why my little solar rig on the trailer will typically shut the works down if I run my lights for about 18hrs. It reaches the point where it just goes "nope, plug the real charger in".
LOL
I actually have that setup on my M1082 trailer. I have an interior flood and one set up outside, flag pole lights, rock lights under the bed, and my crane winch is 12v. I run two 12v deep cycles in paradelle. It has a little charger I can run to 120v and it's complemented by a solar panel. It...
That's pretty slick.
I'd rather not run the hours up on my gen if I can afford it and my fuel cost already sucks money from the build project. LOL
Mine is a 10hp L100 that I converted from a BAPU (24v charger) via a head swap.
I'm still researching inverters (every time I find one that has...
Well there are always a percentage of bad reviews on Amazon.
But that's true with all electronics, really.
I'm not dissing NOCO I just want to try something cheap with a reasonable amp output that can be run while attended. NOCO's get a bit pricy in the 6-10a range.
I can coax the magic...
There's a fella who went 48v in his M1079 hab for setting up a mini-split to run on solar. Of course he has alternative power sources but it's pretty slick. I don't recall the specifics, but I think it's also Alex from ACELA.
Sort of along these lines...
Yep.
I should have titled the thread "Pulse Maintenance" opposed to charging to clarify. As I said in the post, I'm just looking to see if I can breathe some life into some Hawkers. One of four are fine, but the others could have been dead for years. I already have a PulseTech kit (and it...
Yeah, I have a PulseTech.
Plan to mount it fixed on my M1079 once I get the rest of the solar package lined up.
For now I just want something that works on cloudy days. I wouldn't the the Chinese crap unattended, but for pulsing a 12v they seem to do the same thing (at 8amps).
btw: it's just an example
There are some that have decent reviews for 24v.
Edit, and 12v really will do as I'm speaking about individual/uninstalled battery refresh/maint.
