Based on other posts, Iāve gotten a 12v battery tender to hook up to a portable 1000w battery. Eventually get solar panel(s). Reports are truck is completely asleep & 12v health is extended.
Why go through the trouble of getting a tender, if you just plug the vehicle in and put it in shipping mode?
I see your point about the benefit of shipping mode and using a tender. Iām just trying to understand the benefit if Iāve got the wall charger in my garage, instead of using the tender...
As always, thanks again for the details!
I'm getting the 'Hard Impact Designs' quick release mounts
( https://hardimpactdesigns.com/ ). The single bolt (2 per mount), not the double bolt (4 per mount) style, as the 4/mount will not fit the channels of the Xtrusion rack.
The black metal...
Hi Singletracker, I got the rack & the JB tent. Was needing to know what/how you're attaching the tent to the extrusion rack. More specifically, I'm trying to figure out what can be used slides into the rails of the JB RTT. I using the 'Hard Impact Designs' - quick release RTT mounts. The...

As the OP, what I learned:
scheduling in the vehicle is how to do this/ what works & the vehicle determines the location.
Iām not sure why: 1. The app charge scheduling doesnāt work & 2. Why the software picks the middle of a bridge over water as my location when my home - charging location is...
Ok,
nope, this did not change the location in the app. I will shut down the app overnight & see if truckās software runs the scheduled charge in the AM
I set the charging schedule in the truck to mirror the same time. The problem is, in the app location for scheduled charging is in the middle of a bridge. Thatās about 4 miles from my home. But I need to do is change the location of where I can do the scheduled charging. But I change location in...
Please advise, I need to change the location for scheduled charging.
the app doesnāt allow me to change it by simply tapping on the map area in the schedule charging section of the app. Since I canāt adjust the location, it wonāt charge on any scheduled time.
Singletracker, love it! Excellent description & pictures! Thank you!
My oldest / 12 yr old son races mountain bikes. We have quite a few races to travel to in the year.
This is what I hope to do as well & how/why I would like to mount our tent.
We're also getting a 'Yakima Road Shower', 7L...
Thanks for your replies thus far.
How much range hit / lower efficiency do you get with the tent up that high?
I will initially start with it off the regular bed crossbars & later graduate to that rack.
