  1. I read somewhere recently that they're not using *any* Truma products in the new models.
  2. 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!
  3. 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."
  4. 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.
  5. From one pic I saw, it looks like it might be running a 48V Houghton AC/Heat pump.
  6. 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?
  7. 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.
  8. In my notes I have Alcan 5 leaf rated at 2,750 and 4 leaf at 2,250. Can anyone confirm these ratings?
  9. Chains have to be tensioned to distribute weight, and I don't think you'll have any sway control either without the tension.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. I tested it one month when I knew we wouldn't be traveling and It actually works pretty good for making WIFI phone calls and for doing some lite web surfing. Did several speed tests and was getting around 500Kbps. I think $5 per month to have the ability to do this anywhere in the US with a clear view of the sky is a crazy good deal. We've been using the residential $50/100 Mbps plan and have just been changing our "home address" to every place we camp. Works great (so far) and it's the only reason we haven't switched to the mini dish yet since they won't let you subscribe to a residential plan with a mini. I'll have no issue moving over to a roam plan and mini if they take this feature away, though.
  13. I can understand private aviation being angry with the change, but crying over the 10mph limit on standby plans just doesn't make sense to me. You can have connectivity virtually anywhere in the US for $5 per month and you're going to complain because you have to be stationary to do so?
  14. Most of those who I contacted didn't want the job at all. The ones that did wanted a ridiculous amount.
