Trip to Tinkham Road

Last weekend, my son, our dog and I took a drive to Tinkham Road, off I-90 between North Bend, WA and Snoqualmie Pass.



If you look closely, you can see our dog's glowing eyes in the back window:

First Snow

It was only a couple of inches. The 109 did great on the roads though!

Inverter for the middle row

A couple of weeks ago, I ran both positive and negative 6 gauge wire from the battery box under the passenger seat box, up through the B pillar and into the cab. Yesterday, I used those leads to power a 400watt inverter for the middle row.

I installed the inverter on the back of the Tuffy Box, under the drink holder using two stainless steel straps left over from the venting kit on a tankless water heater we had installed. This location, while not ideal under a drink holder, was the only one that made sense and kept the inverter out of the way. I am going to fabricate a shield of some sort to divert any liquid away from the inverter.

I am still working on the inverter for the front seats.
