Re: Quartzsite January 2017 Foretravel "Lemon" Gathering Reply #88 – December 29, 2016, 06:02:04 pm At long suffering last , got new tires on the coach . Have 90% loaded , full of water and fuel , Barney has his good stuff all ready , so the plan is to pull the anchor at 8:30 tomorrow morning , pedal to the metal and head South West . It is a five full five day event for me , several tanks of fuel . Brother Dave was always going to do it , keep putting it off . I hear some of that same talk here . Each to his own . Nothing like a happy gathering of like minded people . Brad Metzger Quote Selected 12 Likes

Re: Quartzsite January 2017 Foretravel "Lemon" Gathering Reply #93 – December 30, 2016, 10:00:54 pm HAPPY (almost) NEW YEAR to all members!We have firmed up our plans. We will arrive at Q on Tuesday, the 17th. We are hoping to find a nice East-facing parking spot on the North side of the "street", so we can finally try tilting our solar panels and see what they can really do under ideal conditions. Time to play with the toys!Looking forward to seeing all our Forum friends, new and old! Quote Selected
Re: Quartzsite January 2017 Foretravel "Lemon" Gathering Reply #94 – December 30, 2016, 11:02:35 pm hey Chuck, you should be fine with tilting them as you have a bit more than us and 2 yrs ago we had no problems doing all we liked with power. I seem to remember that batteries were full by 11 am.See you about the same time, maybe day later.JohnH Quote Selected
Re: Quartzsite January 2017 Foretravel "Lemon" Gathering Reply #95 – December 30, 2016, 11:38:33 pm Chuck I have 2 420 watt panels, so far we have not needed to tilt them, batteries are full by noon. We don't pay attention to how much power we consume. I may tilt them to see what they will do, I have seen 55 amps. Quote Selected 1 Likes
