Switch panel added.
At this stage button 7 and 8 controll each cig socket / usb panel each.
Button 1 is the fridge.
Button 2 is the top anderson.

Button anderson is solar input to kickass...

Nearly done this simple setup. Will be a touring setup and a full time 50ltr weaco fridge.

110ah agm in the fron of the draws.
Kickass 25A dcdc charger with solar input.
Victron shunt.
EBay 8...

Stop driving like miss daisey lol..

I doubt Ill will have the 270 awning by this trip..
Weight is a concern as I'm about 110kg on the roof as it sits.
270 awning will push it to about 123kg ish...

So we loaded up for a quick overnight get away / shake down..
Fully loaded we were 3.3T... fk.
Probably 70kg of crap will go out, firewood, dog and stuff.
But need to add 20L of fuel, bigger...

In my happy place..https://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2024/03/60.jpg

Righto serious time.
Not to sound like an alcoholic....... [emoji848]
But what are people taking?
I'm usually a bourbon and coke fella.
But I don't feel like this will be a sustainable option out...

If it works go for it I say.
But once out the water throw it in a zip lock bag with some bar oil and bath it with lube for a week.
The draino will be stripping all oil out of the pins and I feel...

Just nod and smile guys.
Nod and smile.....

Long range tank fitted.
Went the ARB frontier tank with 140L capacity..
An extra 60L.
Funny the calibrated at workshop, and when I picked it up it showed 1008km range.
After the 150km drive home...

Had a good day on the tools with a bit more done on the draw system.
Made centring blocks so side to side is less force on the hold down bolts.
Made wings to fill into the tub edges.

Next up is...

Sorta works out the same as its 8 switches, a fuse block, cabling, circuit breaker all...

Gotta love birthdays lol.
Set to 18psi and will give them a crack tomorrow on the...
