This is worse than a platinum credit card free-spending lady in Macy's during the annual White Sale.
This gets stuck through the firewall of my toad, connected to an 80 amp auto-reset breaker then to the alternator output stud. Inside the cab the 6-gauge welding cables come out of the plug to a pair of 500-amp fully insulated battery charger clamps. Can keep the Lifeline charged for overnight gas station squatting using the Bi-PAP and Endless Breeze fan. After which, disconnect the umbilical and toss it in the trunk. Money is money. 10 days of travel - free overnights, two-dollar showers, and buckets of tamales and empanadas. How to travel on 5 bucks a day. Beats the hell out of spending 500 dollars. And no - by RV, is waaaaaay more expensive. Toss another hundred bucks on top for the difference in toll road charges, and one-handed 26 mpg, five feet in width cruising on narrow mountain roads, and this is how to travel long distances on a pauper's budget. Have I ever explained I am a cheapskate?
