Sorry, I updated title to say new code is “MUDFORUMBUY”. I will replace price list by end of day that is on first page as not to cause any further confusion. Thanks for the reminder!
@honghai66 appreciate the kind words brother.
@Khnguyen714 dang bro you’re fast! Thanks for doing that.
@SharpeCat speaking of fast, I decided not to wait for the TRs and put in an order for a JP50 on the 26th. Today I got an email scheduling delivery for tomorrow the 29th! Holy, that's fast
Fingers crossed some of those expandables come in soon. Nice to hear everyone is getting their shipments quick tho!

That’s a solid deal! Well chosen, and thanks for the order as well as the update. Much appreciated.
That’s almost 2 wHs per dollar compared to the industry-standard of 1 per dollar. When it comes to Chinese, Bluetti/Maxoak are a step above vast majority of the rest. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a Bluetti group buy sometime in the future, to give people a “value” option for folks who can’t afford Jackery’s .80 cents to $1 per wH. I’m still holding out for Jackery to meet us in the middle at About .75 cents per watt hour before I go asking elsewhere though. Fingers crossed!

Dang you got yourself a good deal then. I just preordered mine through indiegogo and they were $349.
I didn't even know they where at indiegogo. I got it from their website with a hobotech discount.
I was about to get in on the jackery group buy but decided to check if the bluetti had come out with a regulated 12v version.

Thanks for the insight @NYC570, much appreciated.
Just picked up a media mod for the GoPro Lu sent me, so now it has a HDMI Output/works with my setup! First thing i'm going to do is mount it on Tofu the RC Truck and do a live test of the image stabilization. After that i will pick off where i left last night and try to finish the price list. I redid the list in a way that makes it much easier to edit and update in the future, so that i can update things much quicker from here on. I will be live for most of today if anyone has any questions. @CowboyTaco stop by anytime bro, and we can talk about you potentially coming on board to help, especially with extending the deal to TacomaWorld on mud and ICECO's behalf. It would not be hard for me to edit the layout of the images i am working on, in order to personalize it for TacomaWorld.

@gifu Holy smokes, that's a lot of fridges! Thanks for all the support brother, and thank you to your friends as well!
@Whoareu2200 You guys make that look easy! That's quite a caravan and beautiful spot, utah? Also, details on tires on Lexus? So many good things in those photo/videos, it's hard to pick something to look at lol. Much appreciated for everything as well, and i'm glad you guys are happy!
Next time you guys get together, do me a favor and take pictures of whats inside the fridges! I am trying to get ideas as to what the ideal "grocery trip" is for 1-2 week's worth of camping. With that said, i'd love to see what everyone here is packing in theirs as well!

VL 60, slide and bag arrived. All in good condition and work as advertised 
Thanks @SharpeCat and Mud!
Thanks @SharpeCat and Mud!Nice! I did a similar thing. Got the vl65 dual zone and pairing it with ac50s and their 120watt panel. Hopefully that will let me run it indefinitely as long as there's sunlight.
On another note. Does anyone know if the vl series come with feet? It looks like I may be missing a set of 4 feet on the bottom.
I plugged my VL60 into my Yeti 3000. The fridge draws less than 60 watts when it is on, usually 45 to 55 it seems. It took 90 minutes to go from ambient temp to 0 degrees, completely empty fridge. With a 100 watt panel I get about 60 watt input full sun so the yeti will pretty much run this thing for a long long time. I'll post back the draw over a 24 hr period too.

Thats some quality feedback brother, Thank you for your time! Yeti 3000 what a beast!!! If 45-55 on means youll get similar to me in idle mode (6-8w), which means that if you get 8 hours of sunlight (enough for 60Ws) a day, thats 480wHs per day that your panel puts back. Mine used 160wHs from jackery over 8.5 hours (with usage of fridge, so about ~20 watt hours per hour average between compressor on/off), so 480 wHs can run it for 24+ hours in similar conditions (~80 degrees F). If you can get 8 hours a day of sunlight and sustain 60 watts, then you can run your fridge indefinitely with that panel. Then you got 3000 wHs acting as backup for rainy days... which is enough for almost a week without needing any recharge.... Like i said, 3000 is a BEAST.
Really all you need is the smallest power bank capacity that can accept solar panel that has a recharge rate of at least 60Ws input, and 8 hours of sunlight a day to get you 60Ws from panel, in order to power this thing for good. You don't even need to turn on your car! I can almost pull it off with my JAckery 160 that is limited to 48Ws recharge rate, just need a panel that can input 48Ws to try. Basically, you got enough leftover capacity there to power your fridge for an entire week without needing to recharge your Yeti lol. Mind sharing a picture of the 3000wH Beast??
