Since you brought the subject up, I have never questioned Will's motives for creating this site or anything else. I am very grateful for him and the forum, the information I have learned, and for many of the people here. I think he has every right to profit from what he does too. (I used to...

@DisabledVet ...but if one part of the all-in-one breaks, you're without power until the whole thing gets returned to maker, fixed, and shipped back to you. Easier to swap out one part that you can either buy locally or get shipped to you.

Do you guys want to hear something funny? I have my display name on Amazon as Santa, and the guy from India kept calling me Santa, LMAO.

I couldn't agree more. It is all about divide and conquer. I TRY to stay out of politics all together. I have my opinions though and mostly keep them to myself. I live in a town with mostly far-left beliefs and political persuasions. Everyone I have ever heard who discusses "climate...

Have you watched Will Prowse's video about when he began living in a vehicle and why? He was disabled too. Just some inspiration:

Will Prowse (the owner if this forum) on stage at Enigmatic Nomatics van build in Arizona this month discussing solar. Great speech Will!

I just ordered 2 Battleborn LiFePO4's 100 ah, and Ronnie told me they don't charge tax or shipping. He said they eat it. Everyone else charges tax for my state. He also ended up giving me $100 off! How awesome was that after just going through a nightmare with Amazon cancelling most of my...

Why not help Will Prowse out and watch his YouTube videos and learn about solar electricity too? Don't have time and just want to support him? Just put the playlist on in the background while you do your thing! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7bvIB2TPsChaaGyPfBbk-txxXqe82PK5

I went to the company's website. You can buy different lengths, lug sizes, etc. Thanks! Anything to not use Amazon.

Good, so you can make the prototypes and post pics for us later?

UPDATE: I just received a call from Battle Born Batteries. Jesse says he will be sending me out a new battery and I will return the other one. yes, I tried it. Some came off, but some still there. ty

The only reason it's not substantiated by me is, I don't screencapture every word I type, so I am at fault??

I need a killowatt meter then? OK, it was on my list, thank you!

I'm studying it now! Very straight-forward and easy to understand!

So here is an update regarding Amazon freezing my account and cancelling almost everything (about 40 items) I ordered. I have spoken to them about 6 times over the last month with supervisors promising to personally call me back, but none did. Well, today was my lucky day after having to...

So power management is key. I stole this from Bob. He says to do this and you will only use between 2-4 hours of compressor run-time: First thing in the morning, turn the fridge temp down to ALMOST freezing, but not freezing. Then turn it back to normal. Repeat that in mid-afternoon. He...

I don't mind the civil debates here, I just don't have time at the moment to read everyone's posts and respond. I am on a time crunch. I have a lot to say about this subject, just can't now. Thanks.

Everything's fine with me. I know I am going to let some of you boys and girls down, but....Santa is a she, LOL.

Hi and welcome. Have you watched all of Will's beginner videos? https://diysolarforum.com/threads/beginner-video-playlist.232/ EDITED or bought his book? https://www.mobile-solarpower.com/the-book.html Here is a thread to help too...

Amazon is a monopoly just like Google. They need to be broken up.

I meant this one as the last one. here is a thread to help too: https://diysolarforum.com/forums/frequently-asked-questions.65/

I don't have a clue what you all are talking about. I never had a Sprinter or even a van. IDK what to say beyond you confused me with someone else? and then ...confused me more?

I am trying to go on the road full time. Don't need another problem right now.

Really? Wow. Who should I have taken it to?

.

I make them just like that, only with cauliflower instead of potatoes. yummm

I'm an artist, but....no!

Unfortunately, I was introduced to a narcissist (my ex). I was very perplexed how that worked, never being in a relationship with one (knowingly) before. I was always perplexed how he would do something wrong and turn it around that I did something wrong and blame me. (I later became friends...

Shejeans, I think we answered your original post and gave you helpful advice. I for one gave you Cheaprvliving's info and the H.O.W.A. info. and I left vids on how to insulate, etc. Did you even contact Bob or his forum??? He has an emergency help on his HOWA site. You never even replied to...

Welcome! If you were closer, I'd request help with a rig (build). ;-)

THANK YOU!!! Happy new year friend!

Doesn't look like you can buy online

How do you know I don't know about strokes??? Last time: Here is their website directly, with an emergency phone number: https://homesonwheelsalliance.org/nomad-emergency/ It takes no effort to click and call!

I like it! Did Will do a video on this?

@Bob142 @SolarRat thank you! There is an Ace somewhat close! I will check!

what a joke that was to embarrass himself with the windows being broken!

And I'm a she...LOL I'm standing in for the old man.

Not to take away from Will's excellent YouTube channel or his forum here, but have you watched Bob Well's (CheapRvLiving's) YouTube videos? He shows you how to insulate, and build yourself furniture like a bed for cheap, etc. He started a non-profit this year to help people who are to be...

Welcome!

Welcome!

Then do what Will showed on one of his videos - use your own solar to charge the Tesla battery!

What's a weather station?

you don't know me, LOL, plugging the blender in the car sounds like fun!, lol, JK.

Sorry, I took a nap and am catching up=thank you for your time and information!

I am considering my electric loads. I would like to know, IF one were to use an electrical heater, for instance, and there are 2 settings, either 800 watts or 1000 watts, and if you were to use the higher setting for say, 5 minutes, or use the lower setting for 7 minutes, which would be more...

OK, now I see the pic says to use 250A busbar. Thanks for taking the time to do this today Will! You're the best!

I'd really love to see exactly how you made this! Could you possibly do a video or close up with step-by-step pics? I've never made anything like this. Thanks.

Oh come on. Please allow others to give their opinions and info without criticism. How are we going to learn otherwise?

I believe BB battery bolts are stainless steel, not steel, just saying.

You're wrong. I never thought it would be a one-time deal. I want what is safe to travel! I don't want fires!
