I've had this 1997 F250 diesel for over 15 years and in that time, it has left me stranded just 3 times. Once a dozen or so years ago when the fuel bowl heater shorted and took out the ECS fuse with it, once when the water pump catastrophically fail...
I have three 110ah 12v agm batteries connected by 2/0 wire. The specs are here. I will eventually be getting an inverter sized to run anything in the rv up to and including the 1350 watt microwave. No, I have no plans of running the ac at all or th...
I'm investing in solar this season and I am shopping for a 2000w Pure sine inverter. I currently have 3 100w Renogy panels, 40a ppt controller and 2 12v 110ah agm batteries. The batteries haven't arrived yet and I will be adding one more before the...
I have an old camper but I would rather just take care of it and fix/upgrade it as necessary as opposed to get rid of it and spend tens of thousands for another one. With that in mind, I'm at the point where I need to revamp the power. The converte...
Thanks for all of the replies. This was a very hard decision, but for the price these are going for in my area and the condition that mine was in, I decided that it's best to let this one go. The front suspension was in need of quite a bit of work....

I just went through this myself when the valves on BOTH of my 30# tanks failed. New valves are like $30 each. I had a 20# tank and the gas co gave me an expired 20# tank for free. I can still get them filled cheap when I want but I can exchange th...
I'm really leaning towards a Samlex SA2000 right now. All things considered, it seems to hit all the criteria at a price point that is tolerable. Speaking of price, I probably won't have it this season like I had hoped but I've lived without it for...
Thanks for the tip. $1200 for my solar startup kit and I'm a little light in the bank account right now but I'll definitely look him up after the wallet has recovered. I still have one more battery to purchase too.
