    Just remember running ac, running fridge , running TV, running microwave etc will kill your idle air batteries to point you'll need to idle 5 hrs to charge. Don't do a 34 on the road you'll end up idling. I'm seeing a lot issues battery idle reduction systems. Best bet spend the $1800 on tripak you'll be much happier

    Really? I just took a 34 on the road. I ran my microwave, TV, Xbox, radio AND my AC off of my Idle Free battery APU and didn't have to idle once to recharge the batteries....

    But I agree that the diesel APU is the way to go....

    Totally. I have had to get a second xbox live account for the truck because my kids play at home. We have 2 xbox's at home and I have one in the truck. I'm still playing COD Ghosts, not into the Advanced Warfare yet.

    are you serious?
    I think that's the first time I ever heard that question before in my life.
    It's the competitor of the "playstation" if you know what that is lol.

    All I ever play is Halo.

    I deeply enjoy hiding in a corner with rockets and just waiting for somebody to walk by so I can explode them and then crouch on and shoot their dead body :biggrin_255:

    Well that's pretty good but considering it's only designed to run 10 hrs before it needs a recharge I'd b calling idle free and saying hey you need to modify your info I can run all my stuff plus ac for 34 hours and still have juice left over. Maybe get you to make a testimonial YouTube video on it.
