Thread: Tombies Fuso

Spur of the moment trip to Adelaide for the Caravan and Camping show (pouring all the way there and back) as the Range was closed today and nothing better to do!

Left at 9:30am, hit the show, grabbed some goodies and back home after a stop at some LR friends in Port Pirie for a coffee and chat. Home at 00:05

Grabbed a few bits for the truck…

A self retracting pneumatic hose reel for your truck, I didn't know they made such a thing. I hope there were good prices at the show, which some vendors will do online as well.

Wasn’t too bad. There were some good specials - I didn’t pay those prices either

Youngest Grandson wanted a look at “Poppas truck”

Excuse the Samoyed fur everywhere!

Glad the rains are here but it doesn’t make working on the truck friendly.

Larger fuel tank is in transit. Should be here later in the week. Just what I need a bigger tank to help empty the wallet - a fill will be around $560 at current prices for the 200L

In the meantime the rack has been assembled, bolts to hold the solar on have arrived and I’ll be taking it to a mates workshop to fork it onto the roof later in the week.

Lights are on. Limited by alternator output at the moment (several DcDc systems being powered) so will run these until I upgrade the alternator down the track.

Solar is Renogy ShadowFlux 200w x2 into a Redarc Alpha 50 - used because it’s IP rated for external mounting.

Curiosity finally got the better of me - why the ALTIQ rather than Fyrlyt's?

Available power at this stage.

I have a new pair of MOFO in the workshop
