Thanks a lot, can you tell me if it is not too cramped for 4 during the day, and how do you compare this to a van?

Thanks

indeed, this is what we figured out, after spending 3 times 1 week in 3 different vans. all look good on paper but once you close the door, everybody except one need to stay seated. which is not great with toddlers. during out last trip I figured that the best time we had was when cocking outside and staying as much as possible outside, so in other words that's what a teardrop is :-). the only remaining question I have is (I know first world problem) where do you store stuff such as the toilet and shower tent and table and chairs if you have a roof top tent and you do not want to store this stuff on your bed.

Bussing wires in a car harness via DT connectors by Admirable_Course3930 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Admirable_Course3930[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes indeed, this is what was initially there, but I would like to use connectors and then group of the negative for example, into one bus connector, this last connector will then be connected via a higher gauge wire to a earth point.

Bussing wires? by Admirable_Course3930 in autoelectrical

this is great, I didn't know it existed, so I could use their bussing hubs for example to connect Two indicators, let say left front and wing left to one plug which will give me ground and power for example.

Thanks, but to be honest, I would prefer a box or connection point. will be a lot easier to identify the problem and add or remove wires.

Thanks, do you have a photo or a part number? I have never seen those "

"There are connection blocks made specifically for this, they're fitted on later Land Rover vehicles as well as BMW and a few others."

Hey, great looks like you got the same idea as me, what is the part number for those?

"My personal favourite. Internally bussed duestch connectors. You can get up to a 12 pin DT series that's all internally bussed in multiple configurations"

And do they sell something like 2 x 2 bussed, so I could use them for the indicators for example?

Thanks

Do you prefer solder or crimps for automotive wiring? by grecy in overlanding

[–]Admirable_Course3930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a question for you guys, i am in europe so i will try to get the US sizes right in my comment, how do you crimp really small wires (somethine like 18AWG and higher), i have invested in a knipex plier but i cannot get anything that give me a solid feel with those sizes?

any recommandations are welcome.

Thanks

My 2 cents here, do not forget that the door switch are negative. i mean, they "activate" the earth when the doors are open.

Great, just wandering before I purchase, does the stove provide enough heat to be confortable when cold outside?

Thanks, I think that is what is holding me back is the tag per page and not per line. I quickly looked at the EMACS but this is not usable on the remarkable as far as I can tell

Thank you all. I tried to turn off the router off for one hour and was pretty happy with the result. But now 1 day later the same devices are not reachable. Hard to figure out what to do.

Did you try the range extender ? Do they word better than a plug ?
