Solar panels through a dc-dc charger
(Preview)
Is it safe to run my solar through a dc-dc charger. I run a dc-dc charger in my van through a Anderson setup from car and can I just plug my portable solar panels in to the Anderson plug on the van when not attached to car or do I have to have a separate setup

Garmin Nuvi 1450 LMT.

Bought a Garmin 1450 a few months ago on special with free map updates. Not a patch on the old Tom Tom, maps are poor or non existent and it's now taken to rebooting randomly, a process that takes a number of minutes. Guess it's the old story, you get what you pay for, back to the Tom Tom for me. -- Edited by Sa...

Gas regulator hose
(Preview)
G'day gas people. I bought a new gas regulator and hose but I need to get the old one off first. I've tried undoing the nuts with a pair of spanners but I can't shift them. Any suggestions or tips? I'm not sure about which way the threads go either. They appear to have been there a helluva long time.
