    portable solar power station

    Well I just don't know what to do about buying one, I now hope to use a folding trailer caravan behind my trike and my car and one day go back to motorhoming; not just yet so no permanent fixing. This means the power station with solar panel fits the bill. So my question is, what is the best...

    That's a shame, my maths must have been out, I wanted to use a 400w Remoska. Still not to worry I've still got my petrol stove or the two ring gas cooker. All my other appliances should run quite happily off a 300w inverter.

    As you can see, here's where I hope to house the battery, split charger, inverter and solar charger: short cable run on the 12 volt and a longer run on the 240

    I have decided to move away from motorhomes at this present time and go back to motorbiking; well not quite. This time I am using a trike and, for sleeping arrangements, we will be using a 1970 portafold folding caravan. The portafold needs a lot of work to bring it back to it's former glory but...

    old engine oil

    We will just have to see................. as I said I've got nothing to lose it's coming apart at some time and it makes oil changes cheaper as you are using the oil twice

    old engine oil

    I have decided, as my heater needs new bearings, I would do a little experiment; as I will have to strip it down I thought I would run it on old sump oil. When it stops running I will change the bearings and have a look in side, if it keeps running, I will strip it down when the noise from the...
