It's pretty simple to hook up the DC-DC, it just goes inline between the Alt/batt charger wires and the coach batteries. It will take whatever voltage comes in and upconvert it to 14.6V to charge the LiFePo4 batteries. I had 2 Trojan 6V batteries, and with 2 CPAPS and the heat running all night...

I swapped to 2 100Ah LiFePO4 batteries about a year ago. These new batteries have a very low internal resistance and when the charge level is very low will tax your alternator charging system. I installed a Victron 30A DC-DC (much cheaper than Amazon on Marketplace) and it limits the charge...

Thanks, Jessie worked on this tank before and recommended building a new one several years ago, couldn't remember his company name. Good advice on the bladder, I will go that direction.

Sent Sausage a PM.

The gas tank in my manx has been leaking over the last few years and JB weld tank repair has reached its limit. Time to have a new tank made. The old one is very thin and is cracking at most of the seams. It's beyond repairs. It's a custom tank with all kinds of slopes and angles, nothing off...

I did it once, was on a case for 2 weeks. I got there at 8:00 am every morning, then sat in a hallway for at least 2-3 hours a day while the attorneys and Judge discussed stuff we weren't privvy to hear. 1.5 to 2 hour lunches. Dismissed early almost every day. Total disregard for the jury's...

Time to buy Energizer stock, those "D" batteries will be flying off the shelves.

I've been riding forever, my advice is ride with common sense, and never get into a situation that requires skill. Those that don't ride don't understand the fun riding provides, just like those who don't go to the desert don't understand those who do. If you are in fear of getting hurt, don't...

Here's mine so you know what it might look like when done. 

I am wanting to change some of my guns around. I have a Sig P229 with both a .40 and a 9mm barrel, and a lot of extras including ~400 rnds of ammo. I want a 45 acp instead, and I want a decent one.  I also have an AO Sword AR-15 that was customer made, and a Ruger american predator in .223 I...

The one that started it all for me....my first bike after graduating from mini bikes.

Went to borrego friday to do some riding with my friends. On the first ride coming back to camp from fonts point, I went around a tight corner in 2nd and stood on it on the way out. As usual boost comes up and I lose traction and I see the warning light on the tach come on (7K) and after a...

I'm looking at going from chlorine tablets to using a salt chlorine generator. My last trip to get a 35lb pail of 3" tablets was a shock (no pun intended), price went from around $75 last year to over $200. I've seen it come down a bit recently, but it's still ridiculous. I use an inline...

For those of you that used a floor wax or sealer on your MH outsides, how's it holding up?  Anyone experiencing peeling, fading, discoloring?  This still a good trick, or is there something better these days?

Did you swap a Subaru in it after it seized?
