Do you have an auto start on your MEP, zanther?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Good deal. It is however made of aluminum and now that its outside the door its exposed more to the weather, A coat of clear enamel might help preserve the surface. The writing is small and the detail is fine. It couldn't hurt to coat it.Thanks. Hopefully it sparks an idea in others about ways to add devices to their machines in 'unconventional' ways. Maybe down the line I will look into additional protection. Where mine is positioned, the fuel tank end is close to a building, so direct UV is minimized. It had only been in place three minutes when I took the shot![]()
I may look into something for it. ThanksGood deal. It is however made of aluminum and now that its outside the door its exposed more to the weather, A coat of clear enamel might help preserve the surface. The writing is small and the detail is fine. It couldn't hurt to coat it.
I've used clear enamel on aluminum antennas and it helped keep them clean and shiny for years, particulalry when they were near a salt air environment.
Correct. This company makes models that will provide 12V for up to 4 batteries simultaneously. So this unit supplies up to 4A to each unit, which is fine for standby use. The power entry cord is rated for 13A, so we are under the safe level on it too. And amazon has the **** charger for $85, when I paid $99 on the same page not even 5 days ago!Light. That charger allows you to charge the batterys in two banks of 12v each? That looks like a smaller unit to find a place for over the ProMariner.
I only mounted it up over this weekend. I am probably going to reinforce the backside with some flat stock, to spread the load even more. I hate plastic things, especially when they are for mounting. Might also put a couple L brackets under the bottom of this device, bolted through the door, just to help shoulder the load. It fits nicely in the void above the RH battery and oil filter area.LITD,
I like your maintenance charging set up. Looks like there are LEDs on the charger, do you leave the door open to check them, or do they need any monitoring? How does the charger handle vibration? Have you done an extended run with one of those chargers mounted?
