Nothing was wrong with the factory latches and handle, but they could be improved:
1. The latches were improved by having a locking pin that prevented the latch from opening, which on the factory latches, the right side would sometimes loosen itself and crack open the tent slightly. These billet latches have a pin lock to secure the latch in its closed position while still retaining the ability to pad lock it.
2. The factory handle was plastic and felt kind of flimsy, and when E3Machine announced that they had a billet handle with a built in light, I was like, “That’s freaking cool. Getting it.”
Regarding the KickAss power station, I opted for the box without battery as I had previously purchased a Battle Born 100ah battery. The power station is charged by my RedArc BCDC1250D, so yes, it’s a dual battery system. If I were to do it all over again, I’d probably buy a Milwaukee Pack Out that I can fit a 200ah battery into and just buy all the plugs and what not from Powerwerx and custom build a cool Pack Out Battery Box power station just like the KickAss. The KickAss is very well executed though. Great piece of kit. They generally have a lot of sales too.
And thanks! Always trying to improve on capturing cool moments. My buddies and I are going to try and create content for YouTube, but don’t want it to become a chore. That Barney Riley video was mostly just clips of me talking and footage I gathered from the homies.
