Tyre Pressures for Off-road Driving. Tech Talk with Mic

What is the correct Tyre Pressure for Off-road Driving?
It depends on the terrain you drive on, the weight of your vehicle etc. Mic talks here about his experience driving on different terrains, and some advice when it comes to deflating the tyre pressures when going off-roading.

Hi Mic. What TPMS sensors are you currently using on your vehicle? Also in the market for a good one…

Hi Mic, I love your videos and thank you for sharing the info.
Questions:
Is 6mm cable sufficient for a DC to DC setup ?
I know lithium is better the AGM, but is lithium necessary for a weekender? Maximum days away is around 10

Hi Gcina. We do not use 6mm wiring on a DC to DC install as this wire is rated at 42 Amps and our DC to DC chargers are 40 Amp units. It also depends on installed wire length. Re Lithium, it is not an absolute requirement but you get a better Amp Hours yield from a Lithium battery as opposed to Lead Acid batteries. Lead Acid batteries are typically down to 12V at 50% discharge which is for all intents and purposes almost flat. At 50% discharge a Lithium battery may still deliver over 13V and is nowhere near flat.
