Thankful to be here at the end of the year.

Many things did not go as expected,
and many things fell short as it was last year,
but I won't call it low altitude, but phrase it as "plain but held out".

The best thing to happen was to dive in to my to-do list, and start exploring a new hobby.

Hoping to give what I have, and enjoy what is presented as result in the coming year.

    The DIY galley installed in my camper is in use when cooking and washing inside the car, but the 10L supply/waste tank that fits in the galley is frankly a bit over spec-ed for a single overnight trip. I did some remodeling of the unit, shrinking the size (height) just enough to fit a 5L waste tank making it smaller and more flexible to place in the car. Importantly, I made sure the unit can be set up in it's original size in case I need the 10L tanks for long hauls.

    全高が低い5Lのウオータータンクを入手し、背低の土台部に組み込んで上部のシンク部分をセットすれば小型版ギャレーの出来上がり。

    従来はL字型の室内レイアウトで床に設置する必要があるサイズ(高さ)でスペースはそれなりに占有していた。一(二)泊程度には少々大き過ぎる。小型化で高さが30cm弱低くなったことでベッドフロアの上に置くことができる。

    もっとも今後数日にわたる車中泊で大容量の給排水システムが必要になった際には元のサイズで使えるよう、切断した中間部は保管しておく。

    車内用 IH/電子レンジ 装備を考える

    | コメント(0)

    20220212chiba_equipment.jpg 20230520michioekitochigi5.jpg

    2022年秋時点で、車中泊時の調理はガスコンロを使っている。電気ケトルは持っているものの出番は少なく非常用の位置づけになっている。冷蔵庫も買った。
    せっかく1200W級(1600W/1260Wh)の携帯電源があるのだから、バーナーを使った車内での湯沸かしから一歩前進したいところで、バーナーとセットで使えるクッキングヒーターと調理器具を探してみる。


    電子レンジ(ターンテーブル型、17-18L)

    電子レンジ(フラットテーブル型、17-18L)


    IHコンロとやサンドイッチメーカーであれば持っていても損はないが、電子レンジを搭載するとなるとそれなりの覚悟(とスペース確保)が必要になる。ただレンジがあればレンジ用レトルト食材も使えるし、火器の代替としてIHヒータを買うよりメリットはありそう。何しろ便利そうだ。

    自炊派の道を突き進むのか、絶メシロードばりのご当地グルメ探訪の道を歩むのか。車中泊旅の方向性を問われている気が(勝手に)する。

    NV200には純正のクルーズコントロールが付かない。これは高速道路を長距離走る旅車にとって快適性の面で少々ツライ。何ともしがたいものかと諦めていたが、調べてみるとクルーズコントロールは後付けができることを知る。少しでもストレスフリーな旅をしたく、リーズナブルな後付け用クルーズコントロールを探してみた。

    PIVOT 3-drive AC2

    安全にもかかわる装置なので信頼がおけるものを選びたいと考えていたところ、いくつかある選択肢の中でPIVOT社の3-drive AC2という日本製のスロットルコントローラ/クルーズコントロールが見つかった。日産NV200にも対応しているようだ。

    クルーズコントロール用のレバースイッチはコラムカバーに装着。

    221014cruisecont_setup.jpg

    取り付け作業(依頼)中。

    基本的な動作確認は一般道で行い、念願のクルーズコントロールを確認することができた。平坦地ではスムーズであるが、NV200が馬力もトルクも貧弱なせいで上り坂ではキックダウンが頻発し走りがギクシャクしてしまう。(減速後の設定速度への)再加速はレベル調整ができるようなので、スロットルコントロールと合わせて今後少しずつ遊んでみたいと思う。

    追伸:高速道路を約200Kmほど走行し、その大半でクルーズコントロールを使ってみた。疲労度は格段に軽減された印象があり効果絶大である。またスロットルコントロールをエコモードに設定してアクセルレスポンスを少し鈍くしてみたところ、加速時のピッチが和らいで乗り心地が快適になった気がする。(要は自分がアクセル踏み過ぎだったということ。)

    明治亭(駒ケ根市)

    | コメント(0)

    2022 Summer Road Tripで長野はカツ丼がご当地グルメらしいこと、その中で駒ケ根市を発祥とするソースかつ丼(ご飯の上に千切りキャベツを敷き、ソースにくぐらせたカツを載せた丼)が本命であることがわかった。
    さらに駒ヶ根名物ソースカツ丼と言えば「明治亭」が真っ先に名が挙がる、駒ヶ根を代表するソースかつ丼店らしい。

    夏休みということもあり、中央アルプス登山口店は大入り状態。入店待ちしている間に掲示物を眺めて勉強。
    店に隣接する工場では明治亭ソースかつ丼の肝となる「駒ヶ根産カツ丼ソース」が造られているらしい。
    晴れていれば店内から中央アルプスが見えてオープンデッキでも食事ができるこの支店であるが、当日はあいにくの雨天でいずれも叶わず。

    メニューはバラエティに富んでいるが、注文したのは信州産の豚肉を使ったヒレソースかつ丼一択。

    202208meijitei2.jpg 202208meijitei3.jpg

    丼ぶりにカツが立った状態で盛られたかなり背高なカツ丼がやってきたが、自分自身は既に免疫ができていたせいか驚きは比較的少なかったが、普通であれば初見者は驚くだろう。
    冷静に見ればご飯の上にはかなりの量の千切りキャベツが盛られていてカツが寄りかかっているのでこんなものかと思うが、手のひら大のカツが4枚も載ってくるのでやはりボリュームはある。
    カツは柔らかめ、ソースは味噌カツ味とまではいかないものの味噌風味の甘め。トンカツとキャベツとご飯が混然となった食感は別々に口に入れる一般的なトンカツ定食とは違い新鮮だ。
    ソースが食を進ませて美味しい一方、完食直前にはそのソースの甘さに少し飽きるので七味などで味変するといいかも。

    イナリ食堂(飯山市)

    2022 Summer Road Tripでは長野を縦断する中でカツ丼文化に遭遇。
    どうやら長野はカツ丼がご当地グルメらしい。
    メインは駒ケ根市を発祥とするソースかつ丼(ご飯の上に千切りキャベツを敷き、ソースにくぐらせたカツを載せた丼)らしいが、
    そんな中、北上途中の飯山市にメガ盛りグルメの名店があるとのことで昼食に合わせて立ち寄ってみることにした。
    なんでも凄まじい盛りの良さを求めて地元民や観光客で平日でも賑わうらしい。
    そこは北陸新幹線が千曲川を横断するJR飯山駅近く、土手脇にある「イナリ食堂」だ。

    店に到着したのは8月の平日、おそらく昼食の客が一巡した昼過ぎ。
    店前の駐車場はまだほぼ満車で、並ばずに入れたものの年季が入った店内はまだ八割方の席は埋まっていた。
    空いているひとり席に座り、メニューを眺めながら店内を観察する。

    202208inari1.jpg

    出された水を飲んで少し落ち着き周りが見えるようになると、確かにそこらじゅうで噂通りのメガ盛りと格闘している面々が視界に入ってくる。
    文字通り、おかずの山だ。これはマズイ(苦笑)
    冒険し過ぎたかと後悔しても既に遅し、注文を尋ねに店員が声を掛けてきた。

    「カツ丼を一つ・・・」

    待っている間、高く盛られた餃子定食と唐揚げ定食に溜息をつきながら呆れた顔で挑んでいた女性二人は半分以上残したところでギブアップしていた。
    しかし余った分を快く持ち帰りさせてもらっているのを見て少し安心した。

    しばらくするとそれはやってきた。

    202208inari2.jpg 202208inari3.jpg

    オーマイガー!
    厚さ3cm-4cmの卵で閉じられたトンカツがどんぶりからはみ出た状態で盛られて、いや積み上げられている。
    よく見るとカツは二段重ねになっていてご飯を完全に覆いつくしている。
    どんぶりに対して一般的なカツ丼の少なくとも2倍のカツ量だ。
    刻み海苔が掛かっている。
    カツは脂身が少なく硬めで噛み切るタイプ。かかっているダシ汁は甘めで、ガテン飯の王道を行くような風格だ。

    早速食べ進めるが、味が濃いにもかかわらず案外飽きがこないのは、脂身が少ない肉質のおかげか。
    ただ如何せん食べても食べてもご飯すら見えてこない量の多さには視覚的にも精神的にも早々に満腹中枢が刺激し始める。
    頑張って半分少し食べたところでギブアップして残りをテイクアウト用に包んでもらった。


    202208inari4.jpg

    ちなみに持ち帰った残りは落ち着いた環境でゆっくり食べれたせいか、さらに美味しく感じた気がする。

    中軽井沢駅から少し歩いたところ、少し人里離れた場所に建つ日本料理屋さんであるが、知名度は高く昼時はほぼ満席になる。
    名物はカツカレー「定食」である。そう、カツカレーの定食。
    メニュー上の名称は「福幸亭風かつ(カレーソース)」であり、お店によればあくまでも「トンカツ」なのである。

    20220827fukkoutei1.jpg

    少し深めの平皿にカレーソースと揚げたてのヒレカツが盛られてきて、生クリームがトッピングされている。
    ご飯は茶碗に別盛りで味噌汁と漬物が付いてくる、という特徴的な提供方法はいかにも日本料理屋さんらしい。

    20220827fukkoutei2.jpg

    和風な定食構成とは裏腹に、カレーは酸味とスパイスが効いている本格的な洋食カレーだ。酸味がクセになる。
    その上に乗るヒレカツは軽く、衣はサクサクとしていて脂が甘い。
    ご飯(米)もおいしいかった。
    スプーンで平皿からカレーをすくい、カツ一切れと共にご飯に載せて箸で食べるかカツカレー。

    定期的に食べたくなる一品で、今も継続的にリピートしている。

    Bofypoo CO2センサー 二酸化炭素濃度計

    コロナの第七波に完全突入。先週の新規感染者は世界で最多となったらしい。
    感染対策を行っている飲食店では二酸化炭素(CO2)センサーを設置して換気をモニタリングしている店舗が多くなってきた。宅内の換気レベルに興味があり、安いC02センサーを購入してみた。測定値の正確性はわからないが、相対的な指標と意識づけの効果に期待。

    センサー購入の目的はもうひとつ。
    CO2の測定とともに一酸化炭素(CO)も測定できるセンサーを探して入手した。車中泊の際に調理の為に火器を室内で使うことがある為、一酸化炭素中毒による事故を防止すべくCOセンサーが欲しかったのだ。

    COもCO2も測れる安価なセンサーなど都合のいいものはないだろうとダメ元で探したところ、幸い辿り着いたのが上記のものだ。

    とりあえずそこそこ換気できている模様。

    Crawling Offroad with the Land Cruiser LC80

    20220701lc80rc_3.jpg

    Radio controlled (R/C) cars has been my hobby for a while, and I've been building ones, running them, then trashing them. The latest one is a Formula 1 six wheeler I built more than 5 years ago, but it's been sitting in the "garage" for a while now.
    The issue with road going R/C cars is that there are few places to run them. With low ground height and short suspension stroke, it's difficult to enjoy the ride unless you run them on a really flat and clean paved area. Since there are so few of them around, the cars end up stashed in the closet.
    So, off road crawlers. They're made to run off road, up hills, rocks and even muddy areas making full use of the suspension. A different way to enjoy than road cars, and no need to look for flat pavement. A lot of tune up parts add on to the enjoyment.

    The model I chose for my first crawler was a 1/18 scale Toyota Land Cruiser 80 scale crawler from a manufacturer called FMS. As rumored, it's degree of perfection is quite high and well built, and a good moving suspension with four wheel drive.

    Running it in rough terrain showed it's potential with long legs and sufficient torque, but I also learned it challenging to make it climb up and down tricky areas avoiding a rollover. Yes, challenging, and fun.

    Thinking about a overlander styled roof deck for my NV200 Camper while keeping the car height low. The ones by Rhinorack and YAKIMA look really cool, but are way too expensive by my standards. Looking for other options, I came across a nice looking one by CarMate INNO.

    Photo simultion, and it looks like the 110cm rack looks better balanced.

    THULE was my only choice for the base carrier. Using the fix points on the roof to attach the base carrier was also the choice, having bad experiences in the past clamping the base attachments to the door sill. THULE is the only manufacturer that has a fix point adapter for the NV200. I chose the Wingbar EVO with an aerodynamic cross section looked cool, and will help with wind noise reduction.
    I plan to set up the roof rack towards the rear end of the roof, so I used the two fix points of the rear side out of the three. The typical choice would be to use the front two so the carrier would sit on the middle of the roof, but I'm going for something different.

    マルチバーを設置して天井収納を考えてみるが、まともなものを設けると頭上が圧迫される。ワゴンタイプのNV200では内装内張がネジ穴を隠してしまっている上に、アシストグリップもないので固定が難しい。窓に固定するマルチバー用吸盤も存在するが、その場合設置位置が低くなり頭上が圧迫されてよろしくない。

    そこで頭上のの圧迫感を軽減しつつ天井内張りがあることを活かしてマジックテープ付のラゲッジネットを貼ることを考える。
    天井から吊り下げる為に幅方向にマジックテープの補強を行ったうえで取り付け強度を増してみたところ、案外いい感じに収まった。

    左右の家具に配置する物入れとしてスパイスラックを探してみる。ウッディなものを探してみたがイマイチしっくりこない。白基調な金属製のものに範囲を広げてみたがピンとくるものがない。

    ところが別件で立ち寄ったニトリに程よいモノが見つかったので試してみることにした。リアル買い物の威力凄し。

    ゆっくり時間を過ごせる空間が出来上がると雑誌や本を持ち込むことも増えてきた。マガジンラック的なものが欲しいところであるが、雑誌を収める空間が見つからない。

    リアシェルフにハンギングボックスというのはどうだろう?とりあえずは展示会でもらった布製のバッグをリアゲートに貼り付けて、簡易的な雑誌入れを設置してみた。

    そしてにシートバックにかけているブランケットの滑り止めにテーブルクロス止めはどうだろう?

    さらに、殺風景なリアハッチに装飾を考えてみる。

    Just DIY work and setting up equipment (portable sink, bed board/shelf) is like like putting the cart before the horse, so I decided to go out auto camping with the NV200. I wanted to check out the added stuff in real usage to see if it works. I departed Tokyo late afternoon and headed south towards Mt. Fuji without a specific destination in mind. I ended up heading towards Fujikawa Service Area (SA) on the Tomei Expressway which I read as having a nice view of Mt.Fuji and nice facilities. I ended up arriving in the dark at night unable to check whether my read was correct, but I decided to trust it.

    20220312fujikawa1.jpg

    Before arriving at my destination, I exited the expressway at Fuji interchange and headed to a public bath place for a dip. As the name Fuji-city says, Mt Fuji can be seen from just about anywhere in the city.

    After getting dinner and dessert, I headed to Shimizu interchange to get on the expressway and headed towards Fujikawa SA.I later learned that I could have accessed this SA via local roads. Lesson learned.

    Arriving at the SA, there were very few cars around, and the (annoying) trucks which keep their engines running all night were parked in their spots a distance away. A few camping cars ready to spend the night here were already parked. In the darkness not knowing which direction and where Mt.Fuji can be seen, I randomly picked a parking place away seeking silence from other cars. Though I ended up having to move the car to a different place early morning in order to enjoy the view of Mt. Fuji from the window, the initial place was also good since I was unexpectedly able to shoot a nice night view.

    20220312fujikawa2.jpg 20220312fujikawa3.jpg 20220312fujikawa4.jpg 20220312fujikawa5.jpg

    As I spent the night eating bento dinner in the car watching TV (no cooking, just boiling water for my instant miso soup and tea) and having dessert while checking my emails, I quickly became sleepy. (I guess that tennis in the afternoon followed by a hot relaxing bath did it.)
    Using the sink unit which I filled water with before departure to wash my face and brush my teeth (fulfilled it's role perfectly) , I converted the space to bedroom mode by changing the rear shelf to the bed board. The switch was very easy being able to leave the sink as is. The legs attached to the bed board is a bit weak resulting in the board moving when I turned over, but that's nothing compared to the extended bed width achieved. It was still a chilly night but the FF heater made the van warm and comfortable to sleep in.

    20220312fujikawa6.jpg

    Getting out of the van midnight for restroom business, I was welcomed by a beautiful night view looking down at the lights of Fuji-city. Was able to catch a nice Instagram pic.

    20220312fujikawa7.jpg 20220312fujikawa8.jpg

    However on my second wake up as the sky was beginning to brighten, I discovered that the view of Mt. Fuji was blocked by a building and unseen from where I was parked. No wonder no one was parked around the area. After thinking about the burden of moving the car to another lot, I decided to do it out of strong desire to wake up to a view of Mt.Fuji though the van window. I went back to sleep for another couple of hours, and happily woke up to see what I had wanted to see.

    Dripped coffee, roll sandwich and yogurt from the portable refrigerator powered throughout the night by the EFDELTA power brick (another equipment check item) was breakfast. Spent some lazy time in the van slowly packing up and tearing down my sleeping quarters until realizing that all the SA facilities and shops had been already open for a while, and visitors were already coming in waves. I went window shopping teasing the gift shops, enjoyed the full view of Mt.Fuji from the observation deck, and casually strolled around the area till the clock was telling me it was about lunch time. After purchasing a small cactus as my new traveling buddy at a local market booth, it was time to start the engine and leave the SA searching for lunch.

    I ended up visiting a local seafood bowl eatery called "Sunzoku" near Tagonoura fishing port. The raw fish bowl included maguro tuna, raw and boiled whitebait, and sakura shrimp. Eating the bowl as recommended, I discovered that sesame oil (with a sprinkle of salt) goes well with whitebait.

    The "L" mode sidew bench layout has been something that has been on my mind since I got this camper, or maybe even at the point of choosing this model. The portable sink galley was actually designed with this layout in mind. In actually setting up this layout, it's much more spacious than the standard dinette mode. I like it so much that it's been the fixed layout this couple of weeks, and looks like it's going to stay that way as the standard setting, especially for solo traveling.

    The down side with this layout is that though it's comfy spending the day, it's not an one-touch conversion to the standard sleeping layout. Dismantling the galley is especially something that needs avoiding. The width of just the side bench seat is also too narrow to act as a bed.

    Being a lazy person, I needed to find a way to configure this layout into a sleeping setting without a drastic change. After a while of staring at the interior, the idea of an additional bed board came to mind. Placing a bed board next to the side bench will add width to the seating surface and turn it into at least a single bed. The galley will keep it's place since the bed board will be designed to fit right in between the bench and galley.

    202202luz_lmode.jpg 202202luz_lmodeatnight.png

    I measured the length of the bed board to be 120cm, which is achievable by pushing forward the second seat. This 120cm becomes key, which will be explained later. The gap between the bench seat and the galley is about 35cm, and I decided the board width to be 30cm to keep allowance. I chose a set of folding table legs that would give the board a height of 33cm when in use. the height would be just about the same height as the bench seat.
    I found a stock table board of 120cm x 30cm size on Amazon, and I picked up a no-brand one over the Iris Ohyama one which was said to be lighter but had quality and packaging issues by the reviews.
    Now, an issue that had to be solved was where to store a 120cm board in the daytime when not in use as a bed. Once choice was to look for a place to hide it, but it would be better to make use of it rather than put it away. As I was searching, I found out that other owners of the same model camper were adding rear shelves that span across the width of the car, and can be used as a table in addition to the storage shelf.
    Guess what...the length (width) of the shelve/table that's bingo for the NV200 happens to be....120cm !
    The 120cm that was just the right size for the bed board is also the just fit size for the rear shelf, making it possible to kill two birds with one stone, a bed board and rear shelf.

    202202luz_rearshelf.png

    The table board that came is sturdy and looks strong enough to hold my body weight as a bed board, but needing a bit of strength moving it around.. Looks nice too being a melanin board with a gloss surface. After pre-fitting the board in the car, the table legs were screwed on. It turns out folding table legs are flexible to weight, but luckily wasn't a show stopper. I added rubber edge guards that act as stoppers to keep the rear shelf fixed while the car is moving, and also to gain a little height to avoid the seat back of the bench seat.
    With the DIY finished, the bed board/rear shelf is complete.

    Since I had pre-fitted the board, the completed bed board went in with a snug fit as planned, with the board legs avoiding the dining table stem base as calculated. The height is slightly lower tan the bench seat which will be compensated by the thickness of the blanket laid down as a mat.

    202202sleepingshelf10.jpg 202202sleepingshelf11.jpg 202202sleepingshelf12.jpg 202202sleepingshelf13.jpg

    The board as the rear shelf is also a perfect fit, and the just right width of 120cm feels so good. The height gain to avoid the seat back of the bench seat needs tuning, but hoping to keep it minimal.

    The completed portable water sink & table galley is ready for fitting in the car.

    First, the lower frame. The portable galley was made so the upper and lower frames can be detached, and the backside of the lower frame kept open. The purpose of this design is to utilize the lower frame on it's side as a storage box when the galley is not in use. The reason for keeping the depth of the galley to 29cm was to fit the lower frame underneath the bed. To make this happen, I was lucky to find a sink with a width of 28cm. The felt on the front side makes it easy to slide like a drawer on the floor.

    202202galley16.jpg 202202galley20.jpg 202202galley21.jpg 202202galley22.jpg

    I intended this galley to be used in a sideways seat configuration. This seat layout mode was not one that was lectured when I got the car, so I assume it's not a layout intended by the manufacturer. However, the width of the bed floor board (which is designed to fit in the width direction of the car) happens to be the same dimension as the length between the second seat to the rear hatch door...what a coincidence ! This makes the "L" type seating configuration possible. I personally like this configuration since it feels more relaxing than the face to face "dinette" position. The galley was made with this layout in mind, and it can be used sitting on the side seat.

    202202luz_day.png

    It was relieving to confirm that the galley size was just right, not interfering with the side door even with the table in place.

    202202galley23.jpg 202202galley24.jpg

    The galley is tied down using a belt and tie down suction cups. The test drive proved that it was firmly fixed tight without any moving around, more than expected. The part added to the rear of the galley to press the galley to the interior wall seems to be doing it's job well. Let's hope the strength of the suction cups last.

    A water sink and cooking table... a galley was something I wanted to equip my camping car with.
    Some camper models equipped with a galley were candidates in my search, but were filtered out due to not only budget reasons but lack of sleeping space due to the permanent galley unit. I actually consulted my dealer about adding a simple water sink in my NV200 Camper FOCS Luz but gave up on it since it just didn't work.
    As result, I decided I'd DIY a portable water sink system that can be carried on and off the car.
    Starting off with collection of parts and materials.
    The wood parts of choice was 1x4 and 2x4 lumber so I can make adjustments to height as the frame built up. One piece boards may have looked prettier, but 1x's and 2x's have it's tastes too. The sink, supply and waste water tanks, and a USB charged electrical water pump were other parts that were collected.

    202202galley1.jpg 202202galley2.jpg

    The design sketch. (Click to enlarge)It ended up close, but not exactly since some tweaking was done as the build was in progress.

    galley_diagram.jpg

    Putting together the upper and lower frame independently. Making the upper frame detachable is for efficient use of the lower frame for other purposes, as well as for easy access to the water tanks.

    202202galley3.jpg 202202galley4.jpg

    The main frame structure completed. The front side is covered whereas the rear side is left open not only for easy maintenance but for another purpose.

    202202galley6.jpg 202202galley7.jpg 202202galley8.jpg

    Test fitting the sink and water tank went well as designed.
    A cardboard mock up was made beforehand to get an idea of the size, but it's role ends at this point.

    202202galley5.jpg 202202galley9.jpg 202202galley10.jpg 202202galley11.jpg

    After securing the sink to the frame, an extra feature added on while waiting for the USB charged water pump.
    A foldable table is added on to the side using leftover material. The table size was designed to keep the unit easy to carry, but luckily resulted in enough size to place a cassette burner.

    202202galley14.jpg 202202galley12.jpg 202202galley13.jpg

    The water pump arrived dead on arrival, and needed a disassembly to get it working.
    Once it was sucking up water, the water system was checked for leaks and to see if the pump had enough power.
    It succeeded, and the unit is complete.

    202202galley15.jpg

    The whole picture of the portable galley (water sink). The size was designed to fit my Nissan NV200 camper which is a rather small camping car, as well as with the mind for easy loading/unloading. On the other hand, the size of the sink needed to be practical at the same time. Water capacity is 10L each for supply and waste which is a bit over spec. I might get a smaller supply tank of 5L instead.
    Time for fitting the unit in to the NV200 after adding few parts to help a snug fit with the interior.

    Motorlog Update - NV200 Camper

    I can easily imagine that knowing the outside temperature when staying overnight in a camping car would be useful in determining heating/cooling options.
    I found out about an inexpensive monitoring unit Inkbird IBS-TH1 that can monitor temperature and humidity and send the data via Bluetooth to your smartphone app. The dedicated app can display the current values as well as log and graph the monitored data. The unit comes with an external sensor probe that can be placed away from the main unit where the measurement is desired.

    20220205tempsensor1.jpg 20220205tempsensor2.jpg

    I placed the main unit in the back engine room wall and extended the probe cable up to the front of the car just outside the upper front grill, just beneath the hood. Getting it to communicate with the smartphone app took a few resets to succeed coping with the whimsy nature of cheap Chinese products, but succeeded to display measurements on the app once it got going. (I had to open up a sticky battery cover to take out the battery each time to power cycle. Troublesome Chinese gadget should all have reset buttons. lol)
    All went well though I was wondering if the placement of the probe was sufficient to get accurate external temperatures.
    A search on the internet (and asking for advice) revealed that the sensor is typically placed near the license plate where there is minimum effect from the engine heat. Next day, rewiring is done and I change the probe location to the lower grill near the license plate.

    The day happens to be a cold one with a cold front setting in, and I couldn't help smiling to myself watching the app display showing 4-6 degC in the coziness of 26 degC air conditioning.

    20220205tempsensor3.jpg 20220205tempsensor4.png

    By the way, there is a version with a display on the main unit, that can be used for internal temperature monitoring. The app can be used to log and display both sensor units and play around with. Geeky.

    p.s. Something to get rid of the "commercial van" look. Still haven't decided.

    Van Weekender 2 - Nissan NV200 FOCS Luz

    | コメント(0)




    January 15th, I became an owner of a camping van trading in my Mercedes Benz SLK.

    I started my search (and study) back in the latter half of 2020, filtered the search down to several candidates around June 2021 and was asking for information and quotes from the manufacturers. I boiled my choice down to one and placed my order around the beginning of fall. With camping currently being a big trend in Japan, delivery typically takes 1-2 years. However with luck and fortune on my side, delivery came earlier than expected.

    The solar panel, the portable power unit...a lot of stuff I bought at Black Friday last year was for the camping van I was waiting for.

    Considering the in road and parking situation in Japan, I had my thoughts on a van type from the beginning instead of the truck/bus type "motor home" that can accommodate 4-5 people which people would typically imagine as a "camping car".

    I did have the desire to get one with many built-in features though, and my search was initially focused on a larger van, the Toyota HiAce with a variety of standard equipment. However, the HiAce was rather large in size to casually use not just for traveling but for daily use. In addition, I learned from research that fixtures such as refrigerators, sinks, and microwave ovens take up sleeping space and not worth the burden in contrast to their low usage. I also found out that many people DIY them afterwards (and find it fun too.) Change of mind.

    I ended up choosing a model called the FOCS Luz based on the smaller Nissan NV200, not the HiAce. The camper is equipped with only the basic features such as the sub power supply and FF heater (both necessary when spending time in the car with the engine shut down), and obviously the bed unit. It accommodates only 2 people, fine with me. The minimalist camper. My mind is already thinking about where to put stuff inside like the portable refrigerator, and even have a few sketches already for my DIY sink unit.

    The NV200 base car is a commercial van. The 1600cc engine has no positive specs to note, and the interior full of plastic is by no means luxurious. It's not the most exciting car to drive, but I have no issues with it. I do have some worries about how it'll run on the highway since it is low geared and the engine being not so powerful. I opted for off-road looking wheels and tires since the standard ones which are very small and narrow added to the "commercial van look" which I wanted to avoid. The macho looks of the mud tires are nice, but but the massive road noise has me thinking I made a wrong choice.

    Two weeks have past, and I've only started playing with it.
    Added blankets and pillows to make the interior "American" looking, making coffee and eating inside, relaxing with my MacBook (and napping), and trying out my solar panel charging of the sub battery. Even paid a visit to a nearby roadside station for a "park and nap"
    Can't wait to take it traveling.

    My longing for camping cars and car camping has been in my blood since my youth, initially sinking in without me noticing, but coming out and taking shape once in a while. The fact that I've owned three station wagons and one SUV (utility cars) despite my love of sports cars is probably a sign too.

    Then, my detailed daydream (comparison )about my dream traveler last summer.

    Traveling around Japan in my own camper.
    Another one of my to-do's in life which I've decided to put to action. The events that occurred this past couple of years has made me decide that now is the right timing to make it real at last. While I can.

    Van Weekender....Gonna spend my weekends and vacations traveling all over Japan with my new partner, a NV200.

    SLK R170 - Final Thoughts

    | コメント(0)
    SLK
    Among all the cars I have owned in the past, I'm having the most difficult time parting with the SLK. I am even still partially regretting the decision to let go of it though there is no going back now.

    I love(ed) all my cars. I am confident that every car I bought was the best and reasonable choice (including the compromises) for the everyday/weekend drive at each moment of life. Some added performance and added luxury at times, but all were practical choices.
    My partner.

    In contrast, the SLK was an inspiration. I had searched and looked for this near-20 year old specific model because I was in love with it. The pleasure of ownership. The pleasure of looking at it for hours. The pleasure of going out with no destination in mind. It gave me the experience of owning a near classic sports for pure hobby and self satisfaction, something that was on my To Do list in life.
    My lover, and the reason why letting go of this machine is so emotional.

    Some say that the R170 represents the start of quality decline with the merger between Mercedes Benz and Chrysler. The R170 has been mentioned as the secretary's car due to the lackluster performance. From my point of view, I see it as a well balanced and (maybe the last of ? dunno) no-compromise (heavy steel door) Mercedes Benz. Most important, fun to own and drive.

    Life is short. Time for other ambitions.
    However, life also doesn't always give you everything in your way.
    I desperately wish I was able to keep the SLK (forever) while seeking my other long-treasured desire, but it turns out I just don't have the capacity to do so. Owning 3 cars is just too much. Tough choice to make, but I've decided to part with the SLK and move on.
    Only 4 years. It's half-assed, and I accept the criticism.
    I respect everyone who is doing it.

    Saying bye to your lover while you are still in love.
    That is also life.
    As of now, I'm not sure if I can get over it.
