Electric quad?
@humansustainability 15 күн бұрын
No. Unfortunately I am incapable of supporting that type of machine, yet. There are uses for gasoline powered machines due to the ease of infrastructure. Carry gallons of fuel with you! In fact, I use a gas powered chainsaw for my milling. I suspect there will be other things. Propane for example is an excellent fuel for long term storage and it's terrific for cooking. I do intend to build the infrastructure needed to support an electric ATV and electric snow vehicles as well as cooking. That takes a lot of kilowatts which is challenging to carry around with you. Gasoline powered machines are not fossils yet AND they, in general, still produce more HP per CC but the applications where you 'must' use gasoline are shrinking. I have attempted to use my ryobi 18 inch 40v chainsaw to mill with and failed. The failure wasn't due to lack of power but rather heat. In order to mill with electric you will need more batteries and more patience and it will be somewhat slower, but it can be done. My personal attempts make that clear. In a grid down situation a sound and robust battery powered arsenal of tools is a force multiplier.

So just wondering when that L Ion Battery is done and a new battery cost more than a whole new splitter? This is the Electric scam.
@humansustainability 16 күн бұрын
I appreciate your comment but your premise is untrue and flawed, let's examine: The splitter tool costs $899, With a 4ah Battery $999. This is hundreds of dollars cheaper than an equivalent gas power machine with a much smaller weight and profile. The battery alone costs $179. Electric wins the acquisition cost. The batteries can be recharged several thousand times before losing any of their capacity. For the sake of this break down let's use 2500 cycles. A 4ah battery will power this tool for several hours continuously before needing to be recharged. This is roughly equivalent to a gallon of gas in a gas machine. A gallon of gas is, currently, about $3. Therefore, to use a gas powered machine for equal time the fuel cost will be about $7500 [$3 x 2500 gallons]. $7500 will buy about 42 batteries. Electric wins the fuel cost. Agas powered machine will require a lot of maintenance over 2500 gallons of gas. A brushless electric motor is FAR less complex than a gas engine and will require virtually no maintenance [cleaning and care]. Electric wins the maintenance cost. This is not a scam, it is a sound financial decision. Using solar power, this machine is a free to operate fire and forget solution. A one time cost that is more reliable, will last longer and is far cheaper to run than a gas machine.

I looked it up your Kit with Rainfly and Insulated Pad: 7 lb 10.5 oz / 3472 g (My as well say 8lbs) That is WAY to heavy for a pack. Ok for car camping. This is without sleeping bag. With Dan Durston's tent I run only weighs 2.2 pounds now toss a pad in it and that weighs 3.2 pounds with my quilt 4.2 pounds in total. The pad that comes with yours is R3 Which is horrible for winter. Do not attempt to sleep in cold temps with that. I run thermarest Pads R7 and they are good for -20. Pads run with a R rating. The higher the number the colder you can go. Search my channel for "Ultimate Sleeping Pad Showdown: Exploring Tent Pads for Your Best Night's Sleep!" I explain pads in compete detail. Yeah its good for car camping but not for a backpack. oh also with my tent its a 2 man and my German Shepard can also come in my tent and get out of the bugs. The pads they are offering with this setup is to much weight over 2lbs just for the pads. A NEMO Tensor Insulated pad weighs 1 pound with a R value of 5.5 Which is great for fall or spring. Summer is ok too. But when it gets cold I switch to the thermarest r7 pad which takes me to -20 When you lay on this pad you feel the heat coming off it right away.

Where are you out of? You look like you're in my area. Right from the beggining I was wondering what you were thinking and if you knew what you were doing. You can put more weight on it if you want to but what you will find is that it is still too small and will clump up with plant material and will even become less effective. As plant material is packed into it it will just slide right across everything. If you want to drag your road then you basically need a drag harrow at least three times longer than with weight on the front of each segment. You can buy attachment lengths to connect. A drag harrow like that will only work when the road is straight dirt or gravel and you use it to smooth out or grate your road. You can attach tires too it too! If you get enough weight on there or do it enough times hopefully it will start killing the plants to where you can start to get contact with bare ground.

If you really are planning on 'Never Coming Home', then might I suggest that you learn how to build a fish trap rather than rely on standing at the riverside using a fishing line - you can drop a trap into the river and then go n do some other vital jobs and let the fish catch themselves. Also; a few of those Yo-Yo automatic fishing reels, and learning how to make deadfall and snare traps, would be a good idea. Toilet paper tabs would soon run out, so I've packed a couple of packets of dish cloths which can be used for the clean-up job and then washed out and used again. Toothpicks can be made from slivers of wood at any time and cloves are great for dealing with toothache. I cannot stress enough how important fire making equipment is - I'd advise having six inch ferro rods (I have four of them), plus knowing how to make fire the old way with flint and steel and also bow-drill friction fire, is absolutely essential. Water filtration and purification; A fire to boil water might not be possible in a non-permissive environment so I have a few Sawyer Mini water filters, plus I use potassium permanganate crystals instead of purification tablets, since you can purify many Many times more water with this than you can with an equal weight of purification tabs. Concentrated Potassium permanganate solution is also a very powerful disinfectant. Other than all that, I'd say you're ready to go 🙂

A drill/wood boring auger Crook knife for making bowl, cup, containers. Salt. Small containers and food bags. I would opt for a bigger chopping tool for construction and a smaller cutting belt knife. A separate small kitchen knife. More notebook and pencils. Some inspirational reading and informational manuals. A mule or bicycle with trailer to haul it all.
