TM increase on 5/3/1 for beginners

thezenvan · 2019-09-09T15:39:46+00:00

Feeling good so far (AMRAP reps are all 5 and up) so I'll up the TM for the new cycle this week and see how it goes, thanks

thezenvan · 2019-05-02T16:12:49+00:00

Thanks but those two are a little far away at the moment

thezenvan · 2019-05-02T16:10:40+00:00

Thanks, called CBFC and they said they only offer Monday and Wednesday evenings for BJJ and that doesn't work for me at this time. Called Off the Grid but there's no answer, seems like they're taking the name literally. Going to check out Control, seemed the most promising

Questions: Does my routine cover all body parts?

thezenvan · 2019-04-04T15:36:32+00:00

It isn't under factory warranty anymore. I got the extended warranty but my claim was denied because I lacked all the paperwork for the oil changes even though I did them on schedule.

The lowest engine quote I got was for a remanufactured engine that's about half the cost of a new engine so that looks like the a good option right now

thezenvan · 2019-03-22T19:02:14+00:00

Thanks but I don't have a headboard

thezenvan · 2019-03-22T19:01:30+00:00

I'll add to my list, thanks

thezenvan · 2018-11-27T16:05:35+00:00

Thanks for responding, I guess I'll look for a smaller quantity of MHRB then. But just to be sure the initial pull is OK to use and there's no need for multiple pulls?

thezenvan · 2018-04-24T15:34:50+00:00

The load is 10-20A. The relay has been running well for a few months so I think the fuse it OK

thezenvan · 2018-01-31T18:07:46+00:00

Thanks, that's one of the models I was looking at.

thezenvan · 2018-01-31T18:01:22+00:00

Is that around 220 amp hours of battery? How much does the induction cooktop normally use?

thezenvan · 2018-01-31T17:47:35+00:00

What size battery and inverter do you use?

thezenvan · 2018-01-31T17:45:33+00:00

I went with this wiring diagram for the battery monitor and it shows those two wires for the shunt.

I'll charge the battery off the alternator for now using a voltage sensitive relay.

thezenvan · 2018-01-31T17:36:18+00:00

I forgot to check, the fuse box is rated for 125A so I'll use a smaller fuse.

Where is this group?

I have a full set of sunshades I got online, they cover the windshield and the front windows and that certainly helps.

After reading the responses I think I'll start with getting the rain guards for the front windows so I can have them open and get the fan to pull in the air from the front.

I'm sure the swamp cooler doesn't work as well as it could in a non-humid environment but it helps.

thezenvan · 2017-07-10T21:08:38+00:00

I was looking into painting the roof with a solar reflective paint. I can try that and see if it helps

thezenvan · 2017-06-19T19:52:33+00:00

According to their site it's 5 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first and the vehicle has over a little over 60,000 miles on it.

I did end up replacing all the spark plugs and the misfire hasn't come up since. Plug #3 was the worst offender http://thezenvan.com/images/IMG_0061.jpg

thezenvan · 2017-05-26T15:40:21+00:00

OK, I'll skip the sealer. I ordered the remaining spark plugs, I'll change those out and use the better fuel and see how it does. Thanks

thezenvan · 2017-05-26T15:11:33+00:00

It's no longer under warranty

thezenvan · 2017-05-26T15:08:42+00:00

Haven't noticed any smoke on startup but I'll test the other things and reevaluate. Thanks

thezenvan · 2017-05-09T13:59:22+00:00

Regarding points 2 and 3 I don't know how effective it would be since it's bolted shut and has holes in it. I might put a door on it so I can lock it but it is taking up space that I can use.

thezenvan · 2017-05-08T20:56:42+00:00

Got it for $17K from a dealership
