My wife and I spent a few nights at Oscar Scherer State Park a few years back. We just happened to be going through the area and stopped in to see if they had a site. It is a beautiful park, we loved...

I’m with Travelin Texans on this one.

When traveling in the winter we run the furnace and tank heaters. In my previous camper I also had heat cable on all of the runs of pex in the underbelly and...

I winterize and unwinterize several times. I did consider installing this for that convenience factor. But, too pricey. It’s really not that hard to just pull out my air compressor and hook it up to...

I cold weather camp often. Used to have problems with my 2 12v lead acid batteries. I upgraded to lithium and haven’t had an issue since.

27 amp draw for the fridge sounds correct, assuming that it is 27 amps at 12v. My old absorption fridge would draw 300-400 watts when running off electricity. At the ~13v my lithium batteries would...

Another update on this. I actually have not talked to Lippert again yet, will probably call them sometime next week to give them an update.

I use the compressed air method. Maybe if I lived in a colder place I’d do more, but it’s above 0 F here (WI) occasionally in the winter. :lol:

I switched to doing compressed air only because we...

Sounds like an EMS issue to me also. I had that problem when trying to use a generator with mine. I believe the issue is that the EMS doesn’t detect a ground, or detects open neutral (or something...

I have a slide awning and don’t pull it in for rain. A little bit of water pools on it but doesn’t seem to be much. Maybe it’ll be a bigger issue when it’s older and maybe stretches more… not sure....

Another update

I thought the issues were behind me, but I guess not.

First, the tip suggested by Javi of making sure I’m nose high has worked every time. No crazy auto level since doing that. In fact, it’s...

Check out SOK. Not the cheapest, but cheaper than battleborn. Has low temp charge protection also. I have six of the 200 ah batteries and so far they’ve been great.

I think the thin shades are garbage. I actually bought the knock off versions (for a lot cheaper) last winter. Both shades (I have two doors) warped badly by the end of this summer, so I figured it...

Count me in the group of people who think it sucks. I’m super disappointed with the iN·command system.

It’s definitely not just a level vs unlevel thing for me. My driveway is level side to side, so I usually just level front to back with the tongue jack when parked at home. When I do that door won’t...

My last two trucks have had a retrax cover. They are pricey but very nice. Only downside is losing some bed space to the cartridge that the cover rolls up into. But, hasn’t been a problem for me.
