Yes it should shut off. But it may take a while to charge a large bank of batteries - the PD isn't a particularly fast charger. 40 amps or 60, depending on the model.

I thought winter was serious camping season. 🤔

The calendar says that I'm scheduled to impose my musical taste on you guys. Yes, New Music Friday. Are we excited? We are excited. I mean, just look at this guy - 🕺 Starting off, as always, with some Russian electro pop - • And then jump right in to whatever we call this - goth grunge house? My wife will love it. • iTunes tells me this just came out but YouTube says it's a year old. I'll allow it - just a really nice meld of western and eastern melodies. • I admit I do not listen to a lot of non-russian pop, but this found it's way into my library this week. Maybe it's not really pop. Maybe it's actually Russian? • Just kidding about only listening to Russian pop. I also like French pop. • ...and of course French-Senagalese Pop Hip Hop. I think this is also a few months old but, also allowed - • Billy Nomates. I love Bily Nomates - • I understand a few of you are boomers. So you may like Paul McCartney? I've heard of him - he was with Wings, right? • Finally, to make up for those two maybe older songs, here's one (don't call it techno, it's not techno) that got released literally two hours ago. Fresh!

I like those but I have had hit and miss luck with those plastic bayonet style clasps on backpacks and whatnot. Obviously some are better than others, but that's not a place I'd want to test my luck.

I think @Mike and Carol also started out with a Tacoma for their Elite II, so he would probably have some good advice for you. I think his experience was similar to Trainman's friend's.

I really like this. Great idea. Does the pull out stay pretty stable? How far will it extend? I could see the same idea being very useful at the dinette, too.

Like so -

Oliver only advertises the Lithionics now, but I suppose they may have some LifeBlue's in stock if someone has to have them. Maybe leftover stock. On the supply front, LifeBlue got their batteries from the largest battery producer in China - same people who supply Relion and some others, so it's hard to imagine that they couldn't give Oliver what they needed. It doesn't seem like many people were taking up the option anyway, unless all those people are on Facebook. Perhaps there was a transition period last year when they couldn't get enough Lithionics? Or maybe the supply problem was that they couldn't get enough LifeBlues that worked. 🤐

If you have 14.4.2, you'll have the latest Safari. There's a couple of things you could do that might help Jason pinpoint the problem. 1. Go to the settings app and scroll down to Safari. Then click on Content Blockers, turn off any that are there and then check to see if you still get the email. You might get it the first time you revisit the site, but hopefully the next time you won't. If that works, you can turn all the content blockers back on, then visit the site and tap on the AA to the left of the website name and then tap on website settings. Turn off Use Content Blockers. (You'll see the same command on the initial pull down, but that's a temporary setting, while the one under Website Settings is permanent. Doing that will apply the setting only to this website so that your content blockers will still work everywhere else. 2. Verify that the Address/Search field in Safari has a white background and not black. If it's black, then you're in private browsing mode, and that will always make the website think that you're on a new device. To get out of private mode, tap on the double box at the bottom right, then tap Private to disable it.

I was referring more to Bill's problem with it loosening up over time. In your case, if the sleeve is moving freely with nothing inserted, then either something is jamming one of the three ball bearings, or something is preventing the male end from inserting fully - most likely the latter. I'd try blowing out the female end or getting a strong headlamp and peeking inside to see if something's in there. If you don't see anything obvious then maybe just try pushing harder - use your strength pushing the male end in rather than pulling on the sleeve. Possible of course that you just have a bad connector. It's got to happen. You could use a little oil on a swab to free the ball bearings if that's the case, but I'd be careful spraying anything into the connector. An incompatible lubricant could degrade the seal. Just FYI, don't expect anything in your bumper to stay clean - I don't think Oliver designed it specifically to pull in dust, but they stumbled upon a good solution regardless.

I wouldn't overthink it. Your batteries aren't that sensitive.

I stay logged in, but I just tried logging out and in again with no email. I've also tried all of this with my non-moderator account - no emails. It does seem apple related, but it's got to be a setting of some sort causing the problem. I'm using all the latest software.

No issues here.

Yeah you'd think that DDG would be the most likely browser to trigger that sort of thing. Stumped.

Do you use a content blocker? I know the one I use (1blocker) got an update along with the latest Safari. That's at least a potential source of the problem.

I agree that Battleborn is probably the better choice for a simple install. There was likely a good reason that Oliver only used LifeBlue for a year. With that in mind, I think the most minimal install would be the batteries and a new monitor. For a battery monitor, the new smart shunt from Victron is easy to install and probably the best you can buy. You don’t have to add a bus bar, just take everything that’s attached to the battery negative and attach that to the shunt itself. Then a single cable from there to the battery. Use their app to monitor the battery just like you would with the LifeBlue. Then change the settings on your charger and solar charge controllers to lithium like you said. BTW, a single 200Ah lithium will give you 160 usable amp hours, so you’d be reducing your capacity vs your AGMs. Personally, I don’t see the point of doing anything less than 300.
