Here are The Pics. I did add a way to disconnect. The Welding Lugs make it simple to not use. For a Peace of mind. I do pay attention.
I was motivated buy a Youtube Video and Two other members who did install Permanent mounts for their inverters and a lot of caution doled out by other...
jerrisn I have looked For a AGM Charge controller I only can find MPPT and PMW Both will if set up properly will charge a AGM Battery. I believe the 12 Battery in the Mav is Lead acid so I think I am OK. Since the PMW CC shuts down once 12v is reached. I see no issue. I guess I will find out...
That is food for thought. I will call The Ford Service center and ask them about putting a battery maintainer on it. The PMW Charge controller I use shut off when the Battery is charged up and since it a 12 Volt Battery I dont see much of a issue. But Better safe than sorry. I will call them. I...
Just wondering would if a 30 amp Watt PMW Charge controller wires between the panels and the Jumper connection under the hood. Keep the 12 volt Battery desulfated/Charged and eliminate the deep sleep issue. Just in theory it should work?
Sorry for No Post. Thank you for the Idea on Kydex . I have copied that into my Modification. I have Added a way to simply unclamp the inverter and reclamp it(Using 300 amp Welding Leads/Lugs) and a 250 Amp Breaker that I can toggle it on and off The Inverter I use is large so I Taped and...
The wake up call in 2021 We got And the Reason I think the Mav is going to be a big help
Here goes East Texas. We were froze in 7Days. Snow and Ice No Power from the Grid. Natural Gas (We Had both NG and Gas Gen units Parents and Family needed these ) failed 4 days Straight. City water out 7...
Well it is five in the AM So I kick off with H20 and If you Have a Mav. I will go to an event in a Remote area where there is no power. Water is a Basic Need.Lets say camping with access to a lake or streem .I Believe the Hybrid fits the SHTF well. With the exception of a EMP ( which you and i...
I have been in solar for about 10 years now. After the 2021 Grid failure. I have learned the Mav I believe fits a place to be ready when it happens again. Currently The Mav Hybrid seem to be able to fit for inverter power up to 2K. when the need is a must for H20. So if you have experience with...
2021. Winter in Texas Gas stations some had gas but the pumps ran on the Grid. No Gas. The State had wind but the wind Gens froze up. Wells could not pump H20. Natural gas pumping stations failed, They relied on the Wind and the Grid. Coal/Oil fired Power-stations had been shut down and most...
First off awesome post and thank you. In the photo where is is captioned (positive bolt here) What size nut? Metric or standard? Thank you for the Photo with Kydex as a cover.I have been a all stop on my inverter install and had to cut the factory Red plastic cover . I had no Idea about the...
Reasons for a brush guard If it can be pulled off
Sadly I have walked out to my car and watched it slightly jumping backwards as it was being pushed back by a king cab f150. who had the trailer hitch extended. Punched a hole in the front of my 05 Cav. My car was now pushed out from its parking...
Ok Got it. I wonder if a Body shop could fabricate a mount? I will ask them today. Let ya know.
Here in East Texas if it ant a deer its a hog or the Neighbors cow. Not to Mention My fellow red necks who keep the tow hooks extended a foot out and try to back in to parking spaces punching holes in...
Lets Say 2 gauge wire to the battery Positive wire how did you do it and do you have a photo. Ive already tested out a 2k Inverter on the battery to run equipment. I am trying to run the wire now from behind the rear seat to the battery bay under the seat. permanent mount so I don't have to...
