The Lucky Bus

[supersparky]

We have a 93 Coaster that we call the Lucky Bus because someone once told us that we are lucky to be able to afford a little motorhome, and we reckon they were right.
It has all the usual Coaster stuff, but doesn't have a turbo yet. Maybe one day . Standard Coaster fit out, bed at the back , toilet/shower up the front. etc. About 280w solar and AGM's via a PL20 but that will change soon enough.

Photos, we gotta have photos No point in swapping out the old batteries till they die, no one wants them second hand anymore. Turbo charged lithium powered Coaster, they'd be able to see you, just won't be able to catch you

Here we are parked up at the Gympie Muster this year.Last year the same spot looked like a lake after the rain, and some d/h got b....b....can't say bogged. Just lacked forward motion. Or rearward for that matter.

Dapope does my lithium powered chain saw qualify.

90AH x 12v. sure beats the original battery and it is just as powerful as the 18v but just goes and goes. Also was great for pumping the tyres up. Tried the AGM in the trailer that was supposed to be fully charged and lasted no time so out with the lithium portable and it ran non stop till the tyre was fully inflated and still going as fast as when I started. And the tyre was flat when I started. Still have not charged it and have cut quite a bit of wood since.

Bit too big for the choppers so will have to stay with LiPo for them LOL

thats sounds like fun, thinking that once I have done the conversion on the swaggie(gotta get home first!!) a jumper pack of 40ah would be useful, or maybe a little bigger!
Handy for lights outside and all those other things

I run the same batteries as the bus house and crank batteries so they are the spares I will never need.
Have to have a shower as the water heater is boiled today.
Funny day today, sometimes good sun and some times cloudy but still enough to need cold water so good enough for me LOL.

Hope you get home soon as those few days for a quick dash has been extended some. Never make plans as they always get broken.
