RE: DIY 50 amp to 20 amp pigtail
so do all you guys who have 15 amp circuits in your house, where your lamps are plugged in use a 1 amp circuit breaker to each individual lamp?

RE: how starlink works (highly technical)
I just ordered this for RVs. I'll let you know when it ships. Supposed to be 'no waiting'.
what's there to know? there is a 40k person facebook group dedicated to rv starlink, it works, when there are no obstructions...

RE: Does Anybody??
Ender3v2 uses about 240w on warm up (10 minutes or so). and average about 135 watts at 120v.
most small prints average 2-4 hours. my average print is 6 to 13, but it completely depends on a variety of factors beside size (z layer, infill) etc.
what are you trying to print?

RE: Waste water totes for fresh water
I ended up designing a funnel for the fresh water, if I am not close to a hose. makes it hands free and a bit easier.

RE: No 110/plug in for pop up
I just plugged ac into one of the ... plug ins. No special place for the inverter so I assumed the inverter is wired into all 3. Tried all 3 after and no joy. Also, no special fuse for inverter that i can see...all listed in volts. I called the guy who installed the extra battery in series and he said it may be a wiring issue in between the inverter and one of the plug ins. But now can't plug into anything. How would the ac affect no longer being able to have 11?
your going to have to a better job of describing what your issue is.
first link what inverter you have, and maybe some pictures of the wiring.
if the inverter is standalone, it should have nothing to do with the original wiring. check a circuit breaker both in the house and in the rv.

RE: No 110/plug in for pop up
did you plug into the inverter? what size is the inverter? you will probably not be able to run the ac off the inverter if that was your plan.

RE: Can you use all terminals in parallel connection?
This is what I have for multiple loads off the battery. The bus bar is full now - last slot used by breaker for inverter.

RE: 3d printers for making stuff for the RV
the lidar only works with their slicer... I wish them luck. I don't have a need for another printer at this point.

RE: 3d printers for making stuff for the RV
ASA print belowThat's some nice work. My Prusa wouldn't print any better than that unless it was set at 0.15 with a 0.25 nozzle. That'll slow ya down.
thats was a .4 at .16 layer

RE: 3d printers for making stuff for the RV
yea i saw that came out. Everyone thinks the price point is actually too low. They don't feel its going to last long term, also everything including the slicer is closed source and cloud based. That alone would stop me from buying it, especially if they go under in a year etc....
I have spoke to the voron groups, those that own voron's and enders, and they themselves said the quality is not better, just faster. So I am going by what they said.
I have seen stuff come off voron's looks no different then mine. and my ender is pretty much stock.
Wish you luck on whatever path you choose. Voron's don't make ROI sense for me, when you can by 10 enders for 1 voron. If I was printing huge stuff all the time I would, I actually considered a 0.1 vs a 2.4 since most of my stuff fits in that build size.

RE: 3d printers for making stuff for the RV
Ha, I didn't recognize where that was.
I don't know what we would buy if we were in the market today. There is a lot more available on the market today and the technology has grown since I was shopping around in 2015. I see it as a tool, DW sees it as a hobby toy, so it would come down to whatever she says. I'll keep my Prusa and she can have the new toy. I think this Prusa will last me a long time.
I saw Ender has a small flexible enclosure for $60. That's not a had deal if it works
Prusa's, are still considered the best option for an out of the box experience, and after talking to voron people, the voron's don't print better then the ender's just faster.
I only got a second printer, because I started selling, and stuff comes in waves.
I am not going to complain about the Ender, my original is rolling up on 1500 hours, and I don't even watch the first layer anymore, turn it on go to bed, get part in the morning etc. and print quality is not really going to be beat, at least not from what I have seen from other printers. ASA print below, no enclosure.

RE: 3d printers for making stuff for the RV
Man,I like your counter top. Did you make that?
Did you get another Ender?
No, Thats the factory bottom for the overcab, with all the cushioning removed.
I picked up another e3v2. I was strongly looking at doing a voron, but the ROI doesn't pencil out for me.

RE: 3d printers for making stuff for the RV
been doing some 3d stuff, nothing hugely worth noting, did make some boxes to cover conduit to deal with a wiring issue in my rv, terrible photo, all the white squares and corner piece are 3d printed.
picked up another printer as well, but nothing interesting there. Mostly trying to get ASA printing to be reliable,(tried a g10 print bed, failed) and I think I got there today, will see soon.

RE: Replaced WFCO with PD
i have a 9145, with the wizard pendant. it simply allows you to pick what stage you want to be in manually. most will just push it once (light goes solid) and it drops into boost mode. to rush charge the battery, otherwise, you generally don't need to touch it.
based on the led's on it though, you can determine what stage its currently running in.

RE: Poly Glow.
My Zep finish is has been going strong for more than 5 years. If you want some details, I posted about it recently in the Truck Camper forum, the thread about Bigfood black streaks.
I don't know if Poly Glow is similar, but for Zep, surface prep is very important. You must remove old waxes, oxidation, dirt and then apply several thin coats of Zep.
what did you use to remove all the dirt, wax, oxidation? my rig is fiberglass.
