    WAKE UP CA residents!

    I left California back in 2000. Moved to Alaska for 5 years, then Oregon for 5, up to Washington State for the next 5 years and now back in Oregon and been here 7 years now. The only thing I miss about California is the weather and that isn’t remotely enough to make me even consider going back...

    Starlink ain’t cheap but works good.

    I’ve had it on my boat for a couple years now. Works awesome. I just put it in my Moho too.

    Getting stuck is a problem

    How does a larger tire diameter (35" vs 33") equate to getting stuck less?

    solar or big amperage battery charger?

    You want to clean up the rats nest which makes perfect sense. But you are creating another one by having an inverter plus 3 other converter/chargers. Get rid of the 3 converter/chargers and just have one inverter/charger. You need a bigger inverter anyway. You will have lots of battery power...

    solar or big amperage battery charger?

    Seems overly complicated to me. If you are only powering a residential fridge and a few monitors why do you need such a high charge rate? Where is the draw coming from on the batteries that you need to replace so much power? Why not just upgrade your inverter to an inverter/charger and not have...

    Motorhome & Enclosed or 5th wheel and why?

    Moho and enclosed trailer here. Easy decision for me as it is really my only option. Can't fit all the toys in a toy hauler so have to be able to pull a larger trailer. All my family members want to be driver's not passengers of toys. Plus I like having the Moho as I don't ever have to stop...

    Wide body stackers

    I doubt anyone stocks them new unless you find one that somebody ordered and didn't finish the purchase. ATC won't build a wide body. Intech will though. Not sure what the wait time is for Intech now. My Intech was about 4 months last summer. There was a really nice wide body Intech Stacker...

    LifePo4 batteries and size question

    The Epoch batteries are getting great reviews. They are supposed to be even better than the Battleborn and substantially cheaper. I'm getting ready to upgrade my moho. I have 3(ea) 105AH AGMs now. I'm replacing them with 3(ea) Epoch Essentials 300AH batteries. They are close to the same size...

    Do You Use Static Ground When Pumping Fuel?

    Curious for those with fueling stations in your trailer. Do you connect a static ground before you start pumping fuel? Where do you connect it to? Just a decent conductive point on the vehicle you are putting fuel into? I also have a 28 gallon fuel caddy that has a 12v pump. The tank itself is...

    If you got it running, start digging. Dig the sand around and especially in front of the paddles and hit the gas

    Whats the widest enclosed trailer opening I can build?

    I just had a new trailer built. I went 106" wide overall which gives me 101.5" rear door opening. Has 80 gal fuel and no cables on rear door. You can easily get all the other stuff you want and more. I know others that have gone to as much as 110" overall. You just have to find a builder that...

    Enclosed trailer delivery/ transport

    I used McLachlin Transport LLC (206) 298-8099 - Doug McLachlin. He hauled my new Intech from Indiana to Oregon. He also hauled 3 more I referred to him. Everyone was very happy with him and price was reasonable. The Intech dealer I bought from uses him now too after I told them he was 30% less...

    two 12v dying after heater use.

    Yep, I figured based on year and make your Moho is gas (propane) heater and fridge. The heater still has a 12v fan and an igniter so those could be a problem. And your fridge is a 3-way so make sure it isn't getting switched to electric if it is a 12v fridge. If you have an inverter, turn that...

    two 12v dying after heater use.

    Assume your heater is propane? Have you checked the fan motor in your heater? You could have a bearing going out or another issue causing the blower motor to have a heavy amp draw. You can put a clamp-on meter on it while it is running to check the power draw. Otherwise you likely have something...

    Bent Trailer Axle

    Is this a single axle trailer? Have you taken any basic measurements to try to see what's going on? Measure across from tire to tire at fwd side of tire and aft side of tire and compare. You may have a bent axle or you may have axle mounts on the trailer that aren't square. Whet make of trailer...

    Working or not working between Christmas and New Years?

    As my wife would say, I'm "working" (add sarcasm in the air quotes) from home. Back to the office on 1/6.

    Tool Talk

    I forgot about Proto. We are a heavy industrial setting at work and Proto is what we buy for our folks to use. Never hear any complaints. I would call it mid-price stuff but good quality. I also have a Husky socket and ratchet set on my boat I've had for about 10 years now. It has served me...
