You're pulling our leg Tom.... Good one.

[rgthom]

Mine is more power, it runs the EP Carry all day long. If that is of interest I can post some details. There is a (long) thread on the project buried...

If you do not get the buck converter then voltage input to the USB regulators will also be up to 28V. I see 24V in the description, but do not see a spec...

[rgthom]

It is not clear in the description, but I think that panel does not convert the battery voltage fed to the lighter socket. That could be over 28V at full...

When I asked here, for exactly the same use with my EP Carry battery, Kohree on Amazon was recommended. I got a 12V buck converter and a set with panel...

It’s not magnetic Jake, it’s this toothed socket type:

The fit is tight, no tolerance for any grit....

Found a problem with my navisafe. I have a deck mount on my bow deck and carry a tricolor in the boat for use when needed. The deck mount had accumulated...

I looked up kayalite, turns out I have one (got it a decade ago). It does not seem very bright, the navisafe is much brighter. They say kayalite meets...

Thank you! Your boat looks great, despite the photobucket problem.

If I put in 2 skegs as designed it might be possible to socket the wheels...

Gig Harbor has nice oars, I had a set for many years, but their prices have sure gone up. Grapeview Point looks like they are not taking any orders for...

More careful measurement shows that with the big roller wheels removed the bike will fit into an opening 12 x 20 inches at the bottom. The 82 degree slope...

Since I have been using my folder for a few years now I have to say that I do not see a significant difference in the use or usability of the Motocampo...

Didn’t mean to get you defensive there Ted, I thought you were posting to solicit opinions . The price of the Honda is good if it is Honda quality,...

It’s cute and clever but I think they missed it. 41 lb is too heavy for most people to want to carry onto transit, etc. The shell adds weight but little...

Hi James. Always good to check that the brief is right. PT-11 looks very capable but it is a far more complex and expensive boat than the little Scraps....

[rgthom]

That's an idea. Even though this will mainly be solo, I do want to keep open the option to row 2 people. The bike compartment will only be up to the seat...

[rgthom]

Now I look at it, the folded bike stands up above seat height and it would be in the way of the oars at the back.

This is Mr. Welsford in...

Those cats love water, they might not mind….

Elegant punt looks simple and light. Scraps has one more strake, it looks better to me for...

Just for scale, the folded bike in a 15 x 23 box outline.

I would also like to be able to tow this little boat with my folding bike, then carry the bike in the boat. The folded bike would fit in a box 14"...
