No I didn’t figure it out before we left on this trip … I think I had trouble as the front factory plate was already missing.

We have everything crossed for you mate and sending positive vibes your way!

Jeez mate - that was a shock to read. I’m very happy to see your last post was yesterday and still full of your trademark optimism and humour! Once you beat this I hope to see you leading a convoy to Georgia and visiting us here at a little overlanding haven we are hoping to do here. It’s not...

Contact safari and they should send you a new one. This is what was done with mine. I think it was Lorin who did this prior to selling it to me

Very simply for us ... as we have Australian passports as well. Iran was a massive highlight for us. I would highly recommend visiting even with these restrictions!

Thanks for the concern mate ... I don’t make it on here as much as I should anymore. As Clive said we are in an apartment in Bulgaria right now hiding from the cold for a bit and hoping this second European wave of corona eases soon. I’m glad you found us

That’s a nice amount of battery:) you should be able to run that inverter quite comfortably!

I’m using 8x 100ah winston prismatic cells. With the. 123SmartBMS looking after them.

It’s hard to find concrete information on but my bms Comes preconfigured to -20c for the min temp. They are rated at -45 for discharge.
