Hi!

Now finishing a new hiking, adventure travel, and discovery app. You will find a load of useful features with many of them quite new or designed in a different way.

I would appreciate all comments and recommendations.

I’m looking at new Adventure Vans for dry camping. My plan is 7 day trips at two BLM camps – 3 or 4 days each.

Likely components:

• Solar – 600W

• Alternator – for Battery charge.

• Shore Connection – mostly to plug-in at home.

• Lithium Battery Bank – 400Ah

My thing is I want to pick the components.

Is Victron the only component maker that connects Solar, Alternator, Shore, & Battery Bank?

- To me, Victron has tons of product, but needs more product to connect everything.

- And, based on videos, their interfaces (screen & smartphone) seem clunky.

Anything better than Victron?

I’m checking-out new Adventure Vans for off-grid camping.

My plan is 7-day trips at two BLM campsites – 3 or 4 days each.

The van will likely include 600W of Solar, Alternator for power, Shore connection – mostly to plug-in at home. And a 400Ah Li Battery Bank. I call all this the “power system”.

But, it’s tech tools I’m really looking to get help with…

1. Is Victron the only “power system” maker that connects Solar, Alternator, Shore, & Battery Bank?

- To me, Victron has tons of product, but needs more product to connect everything.

- And, based on videos, their interfaces (screen & smartphone) seem clunky.

2. Is there a tool available that uses AI (machine learning) to predict what my “Power System” will produce the following day?

Am I asking for too much? Anyway, thanks for any advise.

Greetings, fellow travelers!

I'm a 24-year-old adventurer preparing for my first trip outside the U.S. I'm seeking unique and authentic experiences that will allow me to explore new cultures and make meaningful connections. As someone on a budget, I often opt for staying in hostels to save money, as well as using programs like Workaway.

My main goal is to see the world through a different lense. If I can deepen my practice in yoga, buddhism, or meditation, that would be a plus. I'm excited to find hidden gems where I can truly engage with these traditions and immerse myself in the local culture and spirituality. If you have any recommendations for off-the-beaten-path destinations, lesser-known yoga retreats, or peaceful temples, I would be extremely grateful.

In addition, I'm also passionate about engaging in service work, particularly with the homeless and in community service. If you have any suggestions for opportunities or organizations that align with this interest, please share them.

Thank you in advance for your valuable insights. I can't wait to use my passport.

Top light is green, bottom is blinking red Family got this caravan a while ago and I spotted this panel, and idea what it is telling me?

Hello! Do you store items in the cab of your truck? I am design student working on a product for the cab of a truck. To better understand the audience I am designing for, I have created a quick survey. If you have time, I would greatly appreciate any input on how you use the cab of your truck.

Thank you.

We have been overlanding across the Americas for almost four years and in that time have driven some truly spectacular roads.

Recently, we entered Bolivia and drove what is considered to be one of the most dangerous roads in the world 🌍

These days, the is a new highway, which diverst all of the major traffic out of the capital, which meant that we were truly able to enjoy the beauty of driving the single track road towards the Amazon.

We have just posted a video about the drive. If you enjoy adventure videos, you can check it out here:

We spent a good month exploring some of Peru's most stunning lanscapes.

After a frantic drive across the Andes, to visit Cusco for their Sun fedtival, we found ourselves back on the road and heading for the legendary Machu Picchu.

To break the drive up, we stopped of at some over Inca Ruins.

We had such an amazing time in Peru and if you want to explore some stunning landscapes, then you should really consider visiting Peru.

We recently spent 2 months travelling through Peru in our 1976 modified VW Kombi.

In this video, we go off-grid in search of El Cañon De Los Perdidos...The Canyon of the Lost.

We also stop off at the world famous Nasca Lines.
