    I thought the idea was to chain them together to have longest lasting power.

    But that can't be easily switched, can it, like normally I have them in series but I need a jump start so I quickly switch them, then back?

    Ok, so like you said, if they're in series, I'd have longer lasting power, right? But if they're parallel, I'd have 12v and could jump my starter battery if necessary. But I'm betting there's no way to change on the fly, throw a switch and go from one to the other, right?

    If I have the money to lay out, is there any reason not to get 4 of them? I hear lithium batteries are light. I have one of those jump start units with a lithium battery, and I was surprised how light it is.

    Getting my own van, opinions wanted

    There's a YouTube video about that unit. It grosses 9950.

    Getting my own van, opinions wanted

    I have some money coming, a consequence of losing someone. The amount is still up in the air, but it's enough to buy a van and to set it up. I don't know if the guy is still making the ones pictured, but that has my interest. But let me back up. I'm driving someone else's van, and it's bare...

    Hybrid expediters

    Is there such a thing as a hybrid expeditor unit, similar to the Ford pickups that use regenerative braking to extend the range of the vehicle?

    Zero expediters at the Hook on Corrington. Never seen that before.

    Would you haul this?

    Something to do with the fact that he said he couldn't slide the tote. I have the extended bumper on the back, so if he couldn't slide it, I don't think he could've even gotten it in far enough to close my doors. Anyway, it got canceled first thing in the morning. I suspect they ordered a...

    Sprinter vs. Chevy

    The last time I van expedited, it was in a Chevy 3500. I was anxious to get into a Sprinter. Having the room, the height to stand up and change, etc., the doors that opened all the way, etc. Now I'm in a Sprinter, and I'll tell you, those things are the ONLY ways a Sprinter is better than the...

    I already have it. It's a chest style but has a compressor and freezer compartment. Says it has eco mode.

    So if I get 2 of them, I have 200 amps to work with, but I really only want to use about half, so figure 100. That's only 20 hours at 5/hour. And then I'd have to start the engine for whatever period to recharge them?

    Ah, so I guess amp hour, yes. I see them on Amazon in 4 packs for like $1200. But a YouTuber expediter I watch, I think he said 100 amp batteries. Just doesn't sound like enough. Don't think I'll be ruining a microwave, but a fridge for sure. He said he can run his fridge for a few days on his...

    Are two 100 amp lithium batteries ok, or would that be insufficient?

    I hate humidity

    So humid in Georgia, my mirror is fogging. My windshield wipers can't keep my glass clean.

    Anybody ever try to use your phone or tablet as a dash cam? This is for Android,not Fischer Price phones.

    Leaving immediately

    In the past, I've seen ads for expediters that specified that you had to leave within 10 minutes of being called. I thought that was extremely unrealistic. If I'm sitting in my driver's seat, that's one thing; I can get directions and all that in that time. But if I'm in bed, I'm likely...

    Yeah, half of it is all I understand, too, unfortunately.
