Next week's project we install satellite dish and internet😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I dig the variety that you include in your builds. Keep On Keepin On😎

[@VWJawbreaker]

Hmmmm, haven’t thought about that yet but I like your thinking 😂 Appreciate ya sir.

[@robertosantinni9656]

Cool! Another fantastic video. Please don’t stop.

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thank you sir, I’ll do my best!! We have another camp trip coming up real soon.

[@mattstick1man563]

[@masbeetleboy9169]

More power for a great camping trip.

[@VWJawbreaker]

Absolutely buddy! We’ll test it out soon.

[@75vw]

awesome ! the coolest camp trailer ever ! it gets better every episode ! more power !!

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thanks man! It’s been a labor of love but it’s mostly there. There are a few things I wanted to do for the full vision but I can’t justify the cost. Things don’t always work out and ya gotta just roll with it.

I want to see a snow cone maker installed next week 😉 great stuff mate 👍🏽👍🏽

[@VWJawbreaker]

Oh now that’s a cool idea for summer time!!

[@annies_vw]

I'm getting jealous of all these cool toys, Gary! More power!

[@VWJawbreaker]

I may have some cool toys but you have Helen which is going to be beautiful!!

[@TheEZGZ]

More Power brother. I'd be sleep testing in my garage for a few days. Nice job as usual

[@VWJawbreaker]

If I could only open it up in the garage lol Appreciate ya sir and thanks to your recent videos, I have my eye on yet another project that I don’t need 😂

[@vintagespeedvw7864]

Very nice Gary. Only thing missing is an A/C vent up from the bottom, or a ceiling fan. Seriously though I like everything about it.

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thank you sir! I have an idea for ac, time will tell if it’ll work or not. I do have USB fans for inside worse case lol Miss seeing ya around, we’re gonna have to change that soon.

[@markamodeo5934]

More Power to ya Gary.. each time I tune in I get inspired to keep working on my VW's..

[@VWJawbreaker]

That’s great to hear, get out there when you can even for a few minutes and make some progress 🤙

[@SteveMcGarrett50]

More power...for your trailer!

[@VWJawbreaker]

Appreciate you being here 🤙

Tight work as always! Someday, I’ll be sent stuff to play with. LOL Dual batteries=mo powa!

[@VWJawbreaker]

Indeed more power! 😎

[@douglasbarnhart3324]

Awesome video Gary thanks.

[@VWJawbreaker]

Always appreciate you sir.

[@briancole7935]

More Power! Your wiring is so neat. I have a 5th wheel camper and the guys that put it together could take some lessons from you! Great upgrades!

[@VWJawbreaker]

Ah thanks Brian! I guess we all have different levels of ocd and I prefer wiring to be as neat as possible.

[@garymiller6563]

You are the man!!

[@VWJawbreaker]

Haha, thanks man!

[@richpeacock5768]

Was that Motley Crue?😂😂😂 your Overland trailer is badass. I am sure I'm not the only one that is as jealous as I possibly can get right now!!! Great project😃

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thank you sir, I’m pretty happy with how it’s turned out so far. Some things I saw differently in my head but reality sets in and grounds me. I’ve had many ask me to build some and put them for sale but my thinking is this…. We all love a project and the videos will guide you though on how I did things so you can run with the idea and make your own.

[@royworks28]

More power!!!!! Cool tech man

[@VWJawbreaker]

It’s nice to have the data at hand so I can run things accordingly.

[@garymiller6563]

More power

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thanks for sticking around! 🤙

[@darrellowensjr7030]

More power...😊

[@VWJawbreaker]

You’re doing great with these!

[@darrellowensjr7030]

@VWJawbreaker Your creativity is exceptional. I've got a 74 beetle I'm working on. I haven't started just yet. Your videos are inspiring and educational. Thanks for all you do.😊

[@VWJawbreaker]

@@darrellowensjr7030 I appreciate that greatly! Hope you get started on yours soon!

Nice Work!!!!more power

[@BrewDub73]

More Power, Brother! Great video. Love the updates.

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thanks brother!

[@BiGJohnnyB]

MOREEEE POWER!!😂

[@VWJawbreaker]

Appreciate ya being here!

[@robertosantinni9656]

Hmmm you could mount the 100 full size batt to power the heater for a LONG time. 👍 OR just use it as a dedicated cooler power supply. Or use the dual batts as your main draw power source. OK, MORE POWER! 😁👍🤓

[@VWJawbreaker]

As it stands now, I’ll run out of diesel long before I run out of batteries.

[@V8N8T]

Another excellent video, I really like that shunt totally B.A.! Speaking of bad ass that oil cooler placement is so spot on its not even funny! So I bought the same crimpers and they were still in the box on my folding table with my bug parts and when I was working on the s10 making the power cable for the power distribution center I only found the hammer style crimper I have. Needless to say I found it again when I was cleaning up my mess after the truck was running 🤣

[@VWJawbreaker]

Yes sir, love having the data to sort things out! I’ve been there before, set something somewhere and bam… can’t find it again for a while. Then when you do find it, you’re wondering how you didn’t see it lol

[@kevinhamling1963]

More power. G'day Gary, Very interesting video. What you need now is to be able to turn things on by your phone. Hey, what about some led lights under the trailer for when your hiking it down the road. So thanks for sharin, man, and congratulations the sponsors are coming. ✌️ Peace from Melbourne Australia.

[@VWJawbreaker]

Hey Kevin! That is a cool idea! Not sure I’m smart enough to pull that off though 😂 I have thought about lights under the trailer, completely forgot about it till your comment. Appreciate ya as always my friend!!

[@THEREEFREPORT]

You can always wire in that third battery and run your cooler off of that since it demands more power

[@VWJawbreaker]

True however having 200ah just recently proved to be more than enough when I can go 18 hours and only use just under 20% capacity.

[@THEREEFREPORT]

Well, if you had 300 ah you can supply the whole camp. You can be your own power grid. Lol.

[@VWJawbreaker]

@@THEREEFREPORT 😂🤣

[@thebinderbuilder]

Man-o-man...thats some good stuff. Definately cool doubling the power on that beast, I figured you had enough to begin with! I do like the shunt you added. That's pretty sweet being able to monitor the flow of electrons. It's crazy how your adding all those controllers and stuff. I guess that's part of thr whole-trailer system. You'll need a folder on your phone that keeps all the apps that connects with the trailer. Anyway, very cool man. Keep that Electec battery for me!😂😂 Oh yeah, MOPOWA

[@VWJawbreaker]

I probably had enough with the single battery but I plan on doing some longer trips and I don’t have a dc to dc charger so having the extra potential is nice and don’t have time worry about discharging too much. The shunt is pretty cool, nice to see exactly what’s going on. On a recent cano trip, I lost sun around 4:30pm and the batteries were at 99%. Ran the heater, fridge, lights, charged phones, cameras, etc all night. Next morning the storm was rolling in so we packed up and left. Get home and started unpacking and looked at the data around 11am and only used 20% of the capacity. So far I only have 2 apps, one for the solar and one for the shunt. I don’t plan on adding anymore than that lol

[@thebinderbuilder]

@@VWJawbreaker it seems that the shunt will help monitor the solar output...so unless your needing specific data, the shunt one seems like it'll cover your bases. Don't forget, even without direct sunlight, solar should give ya something... not sure about the efficiency of it, but when your on a long trip, something is better than nothing! Lol

[@VWJawbreaker]

@@thebinderbuilder that’s the issue, when I’m on a trip, the solar panel is out away inside the trailer…. No charging at all when moving. But again, this will work fine 🤙

[@thebinderbuilder]

@@VWJawbreaker Gotcha man. Well looking forward to seeing what's next!

[@hummv8]

COOL technology! MORE POWER. Just love it! Have you thought about a wiring schematic?

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thanks, I appreciate it. I haven’t honestly, it’s simple straight forward setup. If it gets more complex I definitely will.

[@vdub6873]

More power....awsome upgrades...so have u checked watts on heater yet iam curious...gotta wit till camp trip!

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thanks man! I did check but I don’t remember off hand, they don’t draw that much.

[@jimmywilkinson9190]

Hey Gary ! what you gonna need is A/C summer just around the corner ?

[@jimmywilkinson9190]

D/C done dirt cheap

[@VWJawbreaker]

Hey man! I’m already thinking of ac, might be a bit crude but it should work.

[@Thomas-fo9zu]

Incredible! BTW, what was leaking on the Sickxty?

[@VWJawbreaker]

Thanks! The valve cover gasket was leaking lol

[@Thomas-fo9zu]

@@VWJawbreaker oh good, that's an easy one.

[@mikehammer4546]

Gary, are you an Electrician by trade🤔

[@VWJawbreaker]

No sir, jack of all trades basically.

[@magaisacult2023]

I have that exact same lifepo4 charger, love it.

[@VWJawbreaker]

Good to know!!

[@basecamp3098]

More power !
