Damn….awesome addition!
👏

[@mowerdog]

Thank you!

[@JoseABravo-u7q]

thank you for the idea I'm planning to do it on my landscaping trailer and to keep the battery change adding a small solar panel

[@mowerdog]

Perfect!

I recently converted a utility trailer into a chicken tractor. The gate serves as the door and ramp to the coop. This idea, paired with a timer will save me from having to go out day and night to open and close their door! Thanks for making this video.

[@mowerdog]

That sounds cool.

[@sterlinghousewashpressurew9594]

Could use the 7 pin harness to charge the battery. Or mount a vevor 36" tool box on the wheel we'll and place a small solar panel.
I'm about to do something similar. Building the ramp out about 12-16" to hold pressure washing surface cleaners and a sign. The gate will only have to drop down 90° but there's going to be double the weight.

[@mowerdog]

Oddly the battery will run the whole season on one charge. So I don't have a reason to connect a charging system. I use it once every two weeks though. Only 6 cycles per use.

[@robertmarsh5786]

That's awesome!

[@mowerdog]

Thanks. Still working good.

[@jonnyfortin]

I appreciate the video.. im going to do this with my equipment trailer ramps

[@mowerdog]

It still works good. However, I'm going to change up the switch.

Thanks for sharing have you ever seen anyone use PEX plumbing lines and fittings to assemble their pressure wash soft washing build? Seems like it would work well love how that stuff crimps

[@mowerdog]

I think using pex pipe and fittings are a good idea.

[@user-ey9lc9cv9g]

crazy idea

[@mowerdog]

It works though

[@mowerdog]

Still working

[@Mr.SuperDuper-idk]

Crazy? If it works perfectly is it though?

That's good exercise for u

[@mowerdog]

I quit exercising about 20 years ago. Lol

[@grahammason6466]

Just curious if them portable jump packs would do the job that way u can recharge on your cigi lighter port

[@mowerdog]

I think they would. Just a time or two though. I used it all last summer on the initial battery charge.

[@jimmytate7587]

i start a 13hp harbor freight engine n my wood splitter and it does the job

[@rickynash4561]

Do you need to put a bracket on the battery to keep it from jumping off when you hit rough road...

[@mowerdog]

Yes. The battery box comes with a bracket

[@rickynash4561]
