Subject:Good stuff from JC Whipme?
From:Kyle Davis
Date:Wed, 10 Oct 2007 18:11:54 -0700

This is probably a FAQ, but here goes anyway...

I received a new JC Whitney catalog in the mail today,
the freebie I had ordered.  I didn't order the
"Volkswagen classic" one because I thought it only
meant air-cooled Volkswagens, is that correct, or does
the Volkswagen classic one also carry stuff for the
waterboxers, too?  If so, I guess I'll be ordering
another freebie.

Anyway, for about $40, they list one of those solar
panel charge through your cigarette lighter deally
bobs.  Has anybody used one of these?  Does it help
keep a good charge on the battery during camping?
Enough to offset the stock dometic fridge?

What about getting two, and plugging them both in?
Or, would that blow a fuse or relay somewhere along
the line?

Anyhow, I'm going to paypal the guy I got the hatch
lifts from, and I'm going to order some additional
parts from Chris from the list...

But I was just wondering what people's opinion of this
part and any others ordered from JC Whitney are?

I seem to remember the stuff ordered from the last
order (for a 1972 convertible beetle) to be decent
enough.
