Re: Power Wagon Picture Thread
I tried adding some camouflage to my government issue A-pillar spotlights, attempting to make them look a little more off-roady. Not sure how I feel about it yet.

Re: Power Wagon Picture Thread
Guess who's getting a new rear end!
Been getting more diff noise than usual from the back under acceleration, especially 30-50mph. Local shop I have oil changes done at noted a leaking pinion seal again - was replaced last year by my buddy's shop. Had them take a look at it again while I was out on a 10-day training cycle - bearings are toast. Got the parts on order slow-boat, had them button everything up for now. Got another week of training in MT coming up, parts will be in by then and i'll have 'em knock it out while i'm out on snow.

New toy... Seek ShotPRO.

Almost had a house fire a few weeks ago when a breaker failed. Grabbed the cheapo FLIR (TG165) from work to chase down that issue and confirm the fix. Had a FLIR C3 in my shopping cart for a while, after using the TG165 and comparing specs on the FLIR and Seek units, the Seek turns out to be a much better unit for about the same price. The C3 and TG165 both use the same 80x60 sensor. ShotPro's got 320x240 sensor, 50°FoV, optical camera with a nice "fusion" mode, twice the battery life, and built-in flashlight.

With the electrical/plumbing issues in this house, probably doing in-floor heat with remodels, and equipment work I do... money well spent imo. Great diagnostic tool.

Re: Power Wagon Picture Thread
At the power plant. We used thermocameras all the time to track down bad grounds, overloaded circuits, bad insulation, leaking valves, etc. Our good camera was $40,000.
