Can you share the victron charger settings that you are using? I purchased a LiTime group 24 (heated) and am not happy with the way the new victron charger works. The lithium battery setting in the charger does not fully charge the battery. Last fall I had played around with the custom...

Thanks for the picts of the Backroads Jenn. I have one that I haven't even taken out of the bag yet. Good to see what it is supposed to look like. I don't think that that "rain fly" will be very effective.

I think I'm headed down the rabbit hole. Just bought a refurbished Wave 3 on Ebay. No telling where this will end up, but maybe I can adapt it to the CI.

I keep thinking about getting an Ecoflow Wave and seeing if I can repackage it to work in the AC space. Seems like it would be pretty close with modifications to the case. 6100 BTU's cooling/6800 heating. Looks like it pulls about 425 watts at max cooling. Jerryrigeverything did a teardown...

That's from the old WKRP tv show. The episode where they did the Turkey drop promotion.

The short answer is yes. They do it to make bottles and cans shelf stable. Kegs, both here and there tend to not be pasteurized because they are kept refrigerated and consumed quickly. Your small craft brewery is not pasteurizing because of the equipment required. They are counting on the...

I'm a home brewer and have been to Europe several times just to drink beer (and see a few sights between beers). No brewery adds preservatives to beer here or there. The caveat is that hops are a preservative and flavor enhancer. People used to drink beer and wine instead of water because it...

Looks like I am joining the Lithium crowd. Just ordered a Li Time, heated group 24 battery. It is currently on sale for $249 (before taxes) at their website. Recently replaced the original Battery Tender with a Victron charger and picked up a CTEK 250SE off of ebay. Battery prices have...

I'd be tempted to put the torch on it and get it red hot to soften the metal and then bend it.

how about a trailer valet? New Home

I believe I saw somewhere (maybe Facebook) that CI is using the Precision batteries PR110-DC+HT. Looks like they are carried by Continental Battery Systems.

Looks like there is a nice State Park about 18 min drive south of Northfield that might work for you. It is Nerstrand Big Woods. Nerstrand Big Woods State Park

Came across this today in a Costco email. LiFePO4 batteries on sale(?). 105Ah for $700 doesn't seem particularly cheap, but the thing that caught my eye is that it is a group 24 battery. I don't think I have seen a group 24 at 100Ah before. Don't know anything about Lion Energy, but Costco...

The webpage linked above shows: Heated 100Ah battery is regularly $899 on sale now for $765. Price for 2 is $1538 Unheated 100Ah battery is regularly $850 on sale now for $722. Price for 2 is $1376 I also have a battery that is about 10.2" long. Been to long since I put it in to remember...

I see that Renogy has a heated battery now. It looks like it is a little more compact at 11.4" x 6.8" x 7.4". Currently priced at $765 which is not to bad. 12V 100Ah Smart Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery w/ Self-Heating Function

If the battery is not charging from either shore power or the TV, then I would not be to quick to blame the battery charger. Does your 560 have the battery isolator option? If so, the electrical schematic shows a 50A breaker between the charger/TV power and the battery. I would check that...

Sorry I can't get to mine to see what the connector is. Cary might tell you what the part is so that you can pick one up locally or sell you just the part(s) you need since you already have a regulator.

I assume you are talking about the connector for using city water? Looks like this: Camp-Inn sells them so you could call them and see if they can 2-day one to you if you need it right away. Mine is in the trailer that I can't get to anytime soon to measure. If you look at the camp-inn...

This caught my eye not because I need a longer cable, but because I tend to be a bit of a gear geek. Did a quick search myself and did not find a short extension cable. However I found several coiled cables that seem like a good idea. The problem is that they all seem to have the same plug on...

Just in case you need more to think about - you might consider not purchasing the solar controller with the panel and locating a controller in the trailer. Sounds like you have a trailer on order with a June delivery? You might want to add the CTEK charge controller option. The CTEK also...
