So I did some research. and it did in fact cost more than I was thinking originally (My original guess, was under $100). But my final tally for something similar to the sPOD design is $145. Which includes everything one would need to build this thing. I ordered the parts and will start...

I posted earlier asking about opinions on the sPOD (resoundingly negative) Bantam. The negative feedback got me thinking. What do you guys think of an Open Source kit type thing, a handy person could solder together over a weekend (or less) and install in their own Jeep. The final cost would...

They look really simple to install, and not especially complex which is good too (old engineering thing KISS). I'll definitely look into these.

That's a good suggestion, I'd not considered.

The price is certainly reasonable, I'll have a look.

It's an incredibly small handheld thing,not that far off in size from the actual Fronius welder. But then again how many times have you needed a TIG welder while wheeling?

The Fronius AccuPocket it's a stick welder that puts out about 140A and runs on Batteries. It clocks in around $3 grand I think. There's also the Fronius TransPocket which is a portable TIG welder for about $2 grand. You'll need to run it off a genny. But it's got a reasonably low power draw...

After reading the debacle Eddie had with sPOD I'm just going to stick with RacePak, plus it integrates with VNET and you can do some useful automation with it. Thanks. I guess I should learn the old adage "if it ain't broke don't fix it". :thumb:

Whoa damn, I stepped in it with the sPOD question, I guess I'll just stick with my tried and true RacePak stuff. I had no idea the owner of sPOD was such a douche or I would never have asked my question. Thanks for the heads up (of course I probably should of just searched before posting...

While this doesn't specifically apply to off-road gear (since these things can be used anywhere), this was a forum that looked like it was the place to ask this sort of question... Sorry if it's not. We'll be purchasing a 2018 or 2019 Jeep JLU, and have been going over our usual list of Jeep...
