  1. Looks that way from what I can tell, and those 48V Houghton's on paper don't look very efficient either. I think the 120v inverter units that we each have would use less power even after the loss of running through an inverter.
  2. I had high hopes that the Chill Cube would do a better job than most with temp control since it had the "follow me" thermostat feature built into the remote. The crazy low wattage draw of these invertor compressor units makes it a lot easier to put up with minor issues like this though!
  3. Me too... I'm also interested in the price of that solar awning as well.
  4. I read somewhere recently that they're not using *any* Truma products in the new models.
  5. Some things I was able to pull from a blurry pic of the brochure- Alcan springs are standard, the 48v battery is 100ah, and it seems only the AC is 48v with everything else being 12v. One really interesting option is a 960 watt solar awning. Would love to have that!
  6. Looking at their new Instagram posts, it certainly looks like they're marketing it as an off road trailer. "Most trailers stop where the road does. Not this one- Built for the Road That Ends."
  7. Love the new windows and hope they're available as upgrades some time in the future, though I'm not a real fan of the blackout treatment. Very interested in learning more about the electrical system, battery capacity as well as what looks to be a beefed up suspension.
  8. From one pic I saw, it looks like it might be running a 48V Houghton AC/Heat pump.
  9. They are 6 point, will they work with the cross holes being drilled erratically or will 12 point be needed to get things lined up correctly?
  10. Well, after seeing this, the first thing I'm going to do is weld two strips of 1/8 steel to each side of the hole to hold the bolt from spinning once installed.
  11. In my notes I have Alcan 5 leaf rated at 2,750 and 4 leaf at 2,250. Can anyone confirm these ratings?
  12. Chains have to be tensioned to distribute weight, and I don't think you'll have any sway control either without the tension.
  13. I'd agree with this if the bottom leaf was an overload type that didn't make contact with the leaf pack until a certain weight was exceeded. With the Alcan springs the bottom leaf is arced and looks to be always adding stiffness to the pack. Could be wrong.. Good question for Alcan.
  14. I wish he was testing several off the shelf batteries and not just the one provided by Battleborn themselves. There are also more issues in question than just the terminal overheating problem and I hope he addresses each one of those too.
