That reminded me of this...

Just booked at Willemsrus. Looking forward to getting out of Pretoria for a bit... :)

Those are not spot mounts. They are, actually, antenna mounts. :)

Enjoy folks. Wish I could join, but work beckons. Drive safe. :)

Thanks. That makes sense then.

I'm not familiar with the unit and googled.

The first result I got was this one:...

I'm not sure how you want to use it. Can you elaborate why you want a DC power supply for the thing ?

My understanding is that the 21L SnoMaster travel buddy is 12V DC and 220V AC. In which case,...

Sorry - yes. I do this also. I will download the maps on my phone prior to any trips (there is not data reception in all areas of the Richtersveld etc) and use that to double check things when I am...

Andrew - yes. When I arrive at Waypoint 1, I navigate to way point 2. This allows me to get an "exact" idea of when I will arrive at specific key stops.

Strangely enough, as to your second...

I do not pre-route. I only plot waypoints and points of interest. I find it works the best. I do generate routes from the waypoints in BaseCamp to give me a broad idea of actual distances and...

Yes, I hear you. But 5 minutes is still 5 minutes... I could drink my first beer in that time. ;D;D

Seriously though, I've never battled to find a place where I've needed to consider putting...

I'm probably a philistine, but I don't bother much. I find a place that is reasonably level, open up and go. Spending two hours getting the vehicle perfectly level sort of defeats the point of a...

Yes - as Andrew has indicated, life has got in the way... Apologies - I meant to post here once I got the news, but I was not near my laptop, and did not feel like typing the response on my phone.
...

Ek sien jy kuier bietjie by David ? :)

I believe some people are battling with BaseCamp. The list below outlines Andrew's way points for the routes. I've followed his naming convention for the way points.



Route 1 : Ou Skool...

I shall check shortly. If you followed my directions earlier, it will work...

In the meantime, protect your tech guru cred by not saying anything. If it does not work for someone, we will blame...

A service manual for this winch is available here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0nni1qvjtdzev3b/AAADS-mTkiINxhdLQ7jnQqBIa?dl=0

I don't really reckon you need to test it.

Amps = Watts / Volts.

66 Watt compressor: 66W / 12V = 5.5A
71 Watt compressor: 71W / 12V = 5.9A

Difference is 0.4A. That would be 4 Ah over 10...

Me too!

Petri,

The Patrol only has a single pump feeding the engine - the one I specified the part number for in this thread. There is an access panel for it in the back right of the boot, under the...

Andrew - Select all routes and Waypoints in BaseCamp you want to share.

Select File -> Export -> Export Selection.

A file dialog will pop up.

Browse to where you want to save it and give it...

I've camped there on several occasions - not within the last two years though. It's a nice camp. Resort-type camp though, so I'll only go there with the kids as I prefer more wild spots when it is...

21. At Se Gat

Sorry for being pedantic, but these trails are technically in the North West province.

:cool:

Personally, I think a turbo installation on a 1HZ is a reliability downgrade. It is not an engine known to like being turboed.

Sadly, no photos will ever do the canyon justice... Not mine at any rate - your's get closer to the feeling. Excellent photos. Thanks for that.

I definitely agree though. I found the canyon so...

The camp site near Alex Bay is Brandkaros. I've not cammped there personally, but it looked nice enough when I drove past. There is also guesthouse called Spogplaas near Groot Derm (I think that is...

I camped at Potjespram recently. I would have preferred to camp at De Hoop, but we were coming from Sun Valley in the conservancy area. It is quite long drive and the road out of that is pretty...

Probably, but totally relevant to reinforcing the illusion that NL fridges are the bestest fridge thing ever...

But, we digress...

:)

Is it now zero-riem ? :)

Lekker. Ek is mal oor daai plek... :)

I use Garmin BaseCamp with Tracks 4 Africa. When I'm unsure on specific road conditions etc, I ask on this forum or Patrol4x4, and I may also use Google maps. Their satellite imagery also helps with...

Dirk,

I have an T4A SD card you can test with, if you like.

However, I think it probably wont work with the standard Toyota head unit.

One gets Caska head units, and there is a specific T4A...

Yes. As I said - If you're camping there, you want to be self sufficient. Especially since the water / pump issues started.



And the mongooses (mongeese?). There is a very "parmantige" muishond...

Riemvasmaak is awesome. Been there several times. It is a little run down at the moment. From what I believe is there is a little bit of "conflict" within the community about how to run it. The...

Thanks for bumping this.

It reminds me that I must get my bookings made at Klein Pella.

I will camp at Riemvasmaak on my way there though. That is where the RV is in any case.

Despite the...

I think generally the crims in Kuruman normally target everybody travelling through there... The place is a hole...
