x2. I don't think RV technicians know much of anything about electricity. If you want it installed by someone else, it may behoove you to design it yourself, or have a reputable solar dealer do it. I think it's a good idea to really understand your system, like what voltages are where and why the wires are a certain size. As a regular boondocker I wouldn't even consider it sans solar. I have 830w, which works out just about right for microwave, toaster, TV, and all other uses. I do have to admit I get a bit irritated when I find myself camped near someone who has to run a generator to watch TV. Generators are a lot easier to understand than solar and inverters.. I guess that's why. The only generator needs I have are for air con. With a 48v LifePo battery I can run my air con on the road to keep the cat cool, but not for very long. The neatest thing about solar is it charges your batteries at full power going down the road. In 18 years I've had one BP panel short out, and BP replaced it without question. The foil connections can overheat and burn out. You can see that happening on the front (and back) of the panel... it's a brown spot. Never a problem with leaks.

I don't think I'll have any problem finding a spot in Quartzsite.

The last time I deleted cookies I had a lot of problems. The forum is behaving now..so I'm touching nothing but cache.

No cleaners. No login today.

Forum is not letting me in darn near every day, wants me to log in. However, if I go to My content first, then I'm recognized. Is this another one of those "clear your cache' things?

Looks like temps will start to drop about Oct 9. I plan on going then.

Porn sells.

New truck blowing through 2 transmissions? What's wrong?

lol

Perhaps it's time to close this thread.

When conspiracy theorists get on the ballot for a senate seat, yeah, I'd like to know. My sources care if I know what's' going on.

Out in left field would be a more appropriate description. Out of their minds to be more specific.

Isn't most forest land in CA owned by the Federal gov't? What news organization doesn't talk about Qanon?

You'll be fine. When I used to camp with one battery I carried a spare. There's always room somewhere.

Arizona is great. If you can boondock in Quartzsite, that's about as cheap as you're gonna get, and plenty of room for a rig your size. Get thee some solar panels, some good batteries and a way to haul water on your truck and you'll do fine. The water thing is kind of important, unless you enjoy breaking camp to take your 5er there. I say this partly because I hear reports of RV parks becoming very busy because of Covid.

I wish more people thought like this, but so many of them want things to be 100%.

I guess I could look it up, but what the heck is a gender reveal party?

Roadrunner market has really good steaks.

When I changed my part D address to different state, they promptly cancelled me, although their rules didn't indicate I'd done anything 'wrong.' Best I could figure they expected me to tell them when I went south for the winter, although they'd been paying my prescriptions just fine for 10 years in different states. I found a broker on the 'net who got me into a cheaper plan. At the same time he got me out of an expensive Plan N supplemental, which had nothing to do with changing an address. You never know what will happen when you disturb a sleeping insurance company.

I switched both part D and supplemental in July.

I'd love to know the reasoning for that.

I wonder if he knew the wind was blowing. Unfortunately, most fires are started by us.
