    while a long shot, Mike, low inverter output could be caused by loose or faulty ground cables resulting in low voltage at the dc connectors. Pull the cables off of the inverter connections and measure voltage at the cable ends. Reinstall them and measure at the inverter connectors to see if there is any difference.

    Starlink is surprisingly amazing while driving. The dish rotates while driving which is cool. Their service is continuously getting better.

    The V2 antenna is certainly not designed for that type of use. It will be interesting to see how long it last while taking that kind of a beating going down the road. How did you mount it and where?

    There is an in-motion version but I think it’s around $2000.

    I’m with progressive pay like 6-7k/year. Most others wouldn’t insure me because I get a ton of speeding tickets. Just got the bus but never used it and don’t plan on using it.

    I am not aware of any fuel tank selector but I have not gone far with it due to travel restrictions.

    Cheers.

    I took another shot at trying to get the locking mechanism to work in both directions. While Janet pushed the lock and unlock buttons I used a continuous spray of WD40 and wiped some residue on the lock bar. Did this a couple of times and now it’s working again just like new! I will need to keep an eye on this as WD40 tends to attract dust, but for now, all is well!

    The problem with any omnidirectional antenna is that they are equally as bad in all directions. If you have not yet done the installation you might want to consider installing the Rayzar Automatic instead.

    There is a screw hidden in the hole in the middle. Unscrew it and the headlight swings out on a hinge.

    Mike,

    Do you have a camp; or are you rolling solo?

    We took the rig to the playa in 2014 and camped across from Distrct.

    It was fantastic to be clean and comfortable EVERY DAY.

    Having 200 gal of fresh water and enough diesel to run the cruisairs non stop was a dream.

    We wont make it this year…unless it’s a last minute thing.

    Enjoy!

    Wondering if there is some kind of website security protection robot that prohibits a thread starter from “editing” their original post a couple days later?

    I had found out an interesting thing about load testing connections in the process of trying to find good batteries, and rather than just add a reply, I went to my original post and put an *UPDATE, so folks wouldn’t have to read the whole thread to read the:

    I service my 3 CruiseAirs. We don’t use our CAs while driving down the road. We have Prevost OTR full bus AC/heat. We do use them regularly when parked on 100+ degree blacktop at the various race tracks we go and race at. Once one of my 3 units gave the HI PS after I had serviced it. Turns out I over serviced it(too much R22 freon). Never had the problem again.

    Make sure the condensers and evaporator filters are kept clean.
