I use this NOCO,its 12/24v, watch for them on sale for $72.

Was not addressed, I ordered one from ebay, I believe it had 4 wires, i dont remember so it must not have been a big deal.

It amazes me at all the lurkers, 888 views and only 46 votes. Same goes for the tshirt thread

I am not at my computer, so the photo on my phone will have to do. The trip across WYO yesterday took 7 hours instead of little less than 5.

I agree on the robust part, in this video I had it loaded to 110%, then threw 6kw on it and didnt kill it or trip the overload. https://youtu.be/LgCIdX0-9ew

x 12, that would be a birdsnest of wiring. 60kw + 10%, so say 70kw should do a good load. So why is it so much fun to make these machine work? I mean all we are doing is converting fuel to heat, but its oh so much fun. I did get the proper tool for the proper job, just needs to be delivered...

so what do you suggest for a cheaper way? I will throw a 'pinch of safety' is required in.

Am I missing something here, the batteries should have 24vdc, but if the engine is running it should be 27.5-28.5.

it was intended as a funny, since I found the right tool for the right job, without having to enginerd it myself, thats what makes it good

Can we add the tire treads from 1 to the back (or front, whichever is opposite of logo) of 5? To all those who participated, this was a very difficult vote. There is much talent out there amongst us green iron nuts.

:shock: thats almost as good as phone sex right there.... pm inbound

you gave me the better idea to look for, thats worth something

I was more curious about how you switched the load on/off, cb's would do it just fine. I will probably go with a 3ph heat unit like LitD suggested, I have an old 200amp distribution box to use as switching, unless the heaters come with cb's...

csheath, can you scribble me a schematic for this? What did you use for switches for the different load? Did you only run single ph? I have a 30kw load, but I need a 60kw for a MEP006A, so building one is cheaper that buying, or even renting a load tester that large.

yep, exactly.... what is that on? I never even thought to looked at the 871 sitting out back. edit, 871 is the same as 970.

OK, its freezing time so AMi got drained to keep from freeze busting valves. Now is the time to do maintenance. Problem. Trailer runs uphill due to AMi being a M916 and not a M915 or M931, to the tune of about 13in difference front high. Attempted solution: 1600/20's, failed, tire is too...

If you ever make a trip over the pond, stop by, we can go play.

For those who care to know the back story on how AMi came to be in our stables. She was never intended to be, we had a more than capable 5T that would pull a tanker just fine. We were returning from a car show and someone else was not paying attention, 5T died a glorious death to protect its...
