  1. I also have preferred driving at night, more so if traveling via interstate. If I am in a new place and traveling back roads, I prefer daylight when I have time. I suppose those of us that are working on tighter schedules tend to drive larger segments. I have done 810 Miles with one stop for fuel, eating, walking.
  2. I have similar intake holes in my 2000 Windsor, I have a duck bill drain at the bottom of the ~10" intake pipe that 90's into the filter. My duckbill is ~2" in diameter. Farm and industrial equipment use similar "water dumps" on air intakes anytime there is a chance liquid can collect. My John Deere riding mower actually has one.
  3. My relay is mounted in the cabinet behind the slide controls, inverter control, and tank gauges.
  4. I just had my alternator rebuilt locally for $285 out the door. My built in 1999 unit had severe corrosion internally, probably from not enough use. I also had stray voltage, so I pulled the chassis battery ground and replaced.
  5. When I repaired my Dash A/C on my 2000 Windsor 6+ years ago It required around 4lbs on a 40' coach. My unit has an expansion valve, so low side will change from 25-40 PSI depending on temp. High side max is 250 PSI, however with the length of hose, I kept way under, in the 200 PSI range for max on a 90ish degree day. What I did do to verify was to use calibrated gauges and do a static pressure test after the system has been off for some time vs Outside air temperature at the condenser.
  6. I saw that article. The new LEO ISP service will/should be 8-10x quicker than current GEO services, and more than likely ~2-3X "less quick" than conventional services. It wasn't that long ago when commercializing space travel was considered unobtainable, did any see the recent trip to the ISS?
  7. The new LEO ISP sat system that is being launched will target latency time of sub 100 Milliseconds, early testing is in the sub 50 milliseconds. Your previous experience with VSAT based ISP is GEO based, latency always > 650 Milliseconds. The difference is the physics, LEO orbit is less than 5% distance of the GEO orbit satellites, therefore the roundtrip is significantly less. The antenna requirements will also be significantly less complicated than GEO antenna systems, omnidirectional panels/domes vs highly directional dish units that GEO requires.
