    Inverter Shut off and Won't Turn Back On

    Thank you I will! I'm gonna try and get out of there as soon as possible. I wouldn't mind a little rain because that means clouds and a little shade. We have gotten no rain here where I am in New Mexico.

    Hello from NM

    I just stayed at a campsite in NM and online reservations were required for camping. I also think those reservations fees are alot. So disappointing when you are already paying for a camping pass/camping fees.

    Inverter Shut off and Won't Turn Back On

    I was about to order 3 but ended up with just two☺ and I'll get the testing tool as well. In two years that fuse never blew so I'm thinking I'm set for the next 4 years. Also just in case the spare gets damaged or too old somehow. I will not be plugging in two instapot anymore😅 and I will...

    I stick to just saying "Central New Mexico" as to not disclose my actual location. :p Things are changing and people are starting to realize that being self sufficient and free is the way to be so your kids stance may soon change! Keep the vibes high and the universe will reward you!

    I stopped at NAPA Auto Supply after not being 100% sure of the fuses I saw on Amazon and they used this tool to make sure that the fuse was indeed blown and it was. They had a fuse but it didn't have a "view window" and it was also too short so I didn't get it. They did offer to install it for...
