    Expediter Dispatcher Recommendations Sprinter

    Larry actually is a dispatcher at my carrier. He's good, and he dispatches Sprinters all the time. I highly recommend him. :D

    OK, we got it figured out. Juju uploaded that picture as an embedded image in a PC (private Conversation) to me, asking whether she should post it or not. Normally I'd say no problem, because it's funny and not offensive (except maybe to Democrats). But because we're on the heels of several...

    Sprinter battery bank

    I dunno. Depends on what I said exactly, and in what context. But I probably meant discharging it until it's dead and nothing that's connected to it works. Before measuring the no load voltage is after at least an hour, 12 is better, 24 is best. But after an hour is generally good enough, as...

    OK, so what does it say when YOU click it? If I know what the error says, I might be able to figure out why it's happening.

    I have no idea. It works for me. I also tested it with your permissions and it worked. What does it say when you click it?

    I'd want this. Freight would go there instead of the car. :D

    Average pay per mile

    It really might be helpful if you'd tell us what you drive and who you drive for. Thus far you're all over the place, what with asking for brokers in one thread, telling someone there's lots of brokers, "just Google it" and now you want to know the average pay for an unknown vehicle at the the...

    The S Word

    Panther will do that because (A) the protect time was far later than the scheduled time you got on the QC, and (B) it prevents Panther from having to answer questions from the customer when the customer sees a late delivery showing online.

    Sprinter battery bank

    That's a good charger, and the batteries are top of the line, right up there with Concord Lifeline. One thing about AGM batteries is you aren't limited to the .2C (20% capacity) charge rate as for wet cell batteries, because AGMs have very low internal resistance (which is one reason the...

    Sprinter battery bank

    Any high amp draws like a big amp, heater, air conditioner, sump pump, are not good for running off an inverter with batteries. Are you looking to run that amp and speakers off the house bank while parked? Just say no. In any case, the 1000W amp won't be putting out at full power all the...

    Sprinter battery bank

    Thermal runaway on a battery is something special, especially when it happens in a lithium ion battery pack, like in a laptop. :D I use 18650 batteries for my LED flashlights. They're the same Li-Ion batteries that are in most laptop battery packs, and in the Tesla car. Have to be careful when...

    Sprinter battery bank

    The alternator RPM rating is the RPM of the spindle shaft, not the vehicle's engine. The stated output rating of an alternator as stamped (or printed) on the alternator itself is always at 6,000 RPM. It may be that 3,000 RPMs on the engine is where the alternator is at 6,000 RPMs. The only real...

    Sprinter battery bank

    You could actually stick a 200 amp alternator in there without replacing the wiring harness, but it would just be a lot of wasted money. The alternator puts out the amount of amps the electrical system requires, not the amount that's stated as its amp rating. Incidentally, Bosch no longer...

    Black Trump supporter sucker punches white protester. And isn't that ironic. Those poor, poor, innocent protesters.

    The Trump Card...

    Not really a shocker. The only question for Trump in Utah has been whether or not he can keep Cruz under 50%, to prevent Cruz from the "majority take all" of the 40 delegates. That's always been a very iffy proposition considering 55% of the population in Utah is Mormon. Trump will probably win...
