Been hemming and hawing over what to do .. truck, second cargo trailer, van..
So currently thinking maybe put $500 in my current trailer so that it better works for photo and DJ.
two issues i have with using for DJ gigs is it's dark when the gig is over..if not sooner this time of year.
There is a light (one) in the trailer, but it's got a 4 wire connector so the truck has to be on or lights on for the trailer to have lights...well, the truck auto-shuts off at 10 minutes..be that parking lights or if I keep using the remote start. PITA to say the least.
The truck has a 7 wire connector - the other 3 are brakes, batt (for charging trailer battery) and backup/reverse lights.
Which is the other issue - when it's dark and out here in the sticks dark has a meaning city folk just don't get. The expression 'so dark you can't see your hand in front of your face' isn't a cliche, it's a reality in some places.
So I'm thinking of rewiring the trailer - for always on interior lighting (should be easy enough) and then for back up lights.
So - what do you have for internior lighting? Good or bad, what could be better? Anything outside for lighting (ramp, doors, etc?)
And anyone put backup lights on a trailer? Where/how many/what kind and is that enough, placed right, etc?
