  1. Anyone carrying a power box when camping with their ATV? I built a custom one. I used a marine battery box that has 2 50A Anderson Grey connector outputs ( changed one of the greys to a red), an accessory socket and2 USB outlets,and a battery voltmeter .. I added a Pure sine wave 1,000w inverter to it and A red 120A Anderson connector to the output posts.. To charge the 100Ah LiFePO4 battery I put in the box, I added a DC to DC charge adapter that I made input connectors for to allow charging the battery from a vehicle's accessory socket or a solar panel. It was a fun project.. Besides having a 1,000w power box for 120V ac , USB and 12v accessories using the 10 A socket. I have 50 A Anderson connectors and the 120 A connector to run things like a 12v electric outboard for fishing trips . The LiFePO4 battery only allows a max output of 100A so it can't be used for something like jump starting, but it is half the weight and delivers twice the capacity of a lead acid battery running accessories.. Commercial pow2er boxes don't deliver high draw 12v output to run things like the electric outboards. That's one reason I custom built mine. One box that serves for both camping and fishing.

  3. Before the topic gets too derailed, a few photos from last weekend at Snow Shoe Rails to Trails. They held a memorial ride for one of the founding members (and a good friend of mine) He started SSRT back in 1999 and was passionate about the trail. He died last year due to cancer. He was one of the nicest people to ever know.

  4. The box is an electronics hobby box, you can buy them in many sizes at an electronics site such as Digikey.
