    Renogy 100 Watt Eclipse Suitcase - Psa

    Thanks for the link to Home Depot's offering. Based on your information, I ordered one from Home Depot to be delivered to my house. It arrived, shipped directly from Renogy, but when I opened the box, I was surprised to find a flat folding solar panel without the aluminum frame, just enclosed...

    Adding A Grill To The Mix?

    It says it is infrared, what that seems to mean is that it has steel plates between the flame and the grill so they heat up to spread out the heat. Having said that, I think it's great, especially if you are doing things like steak, sausages, or burgers, heats up quickly (saves gas) and does a...

    Adding A Grill To The Mix?

    We carry a Char-Broil Grill2Go x200, just right for us. We got the propane adapter hose from Camp-Inn, it plugs directly in to the trailer utility panel. It is small enough to fit with the 0ther stuff in our tow, or if necessary in the trailer itself. It heats up quickly, will grill a couple of...

    Water Tanks No Water Pump...

    I would be willing to bet if you have the sink and tanks, you have the pump. On the right side of the galley there should be a panel with a red switch; that switch turns on the pump. If that doesn't work, check the fuses. They are behind a plate on the right side of the right hand under counter...

    Raw Plywood On The Underside Of My 550

    Camp Inn uses marine plywood which is pretty impervious. A coating of something probably won't hurt, but I don't think it is necessary. Personally I wouldn't use linseed oil unless you like the smell of linseed oil. You would likely smell the linseed for along time.

    Things You Forgot But Wish You Hadn't

    Gas can spout. We carry NATO style gas cans to have extra fuel for boondocking. Without the spout it is impossible to get the fuel into the tank. That trip to death valley had severely restricted excursions. Stopping at several auto parts houses was no help, they had spouts for other types of...

    Inexpensive Theft Deterrent

    I think the best place to find the nut is from another jack. You can disassemble a jack to harvest the nut. I believe you can get a similar jack at Harbor Freight for $35, hopefully the thread is the same. 2.5 ton Leveling Scissor Jack

    Electric Space Heater

    A propane heater produces water as a combustion byproduct, but the Camp Inn heater vents it to the outside (along with carbon dioxide and monoxide, and other badstuff). The heat delivered to the inside is recirculated cabin air just warmed up. Adding heat to air reduces the relative humidity. In...

    Chrome Vent Above Door Window.

    It is just that, a vent. If everything is closed up, it's pretty tight, it can be hard to close the door.

    Our Trip To Yellowstone Passed 100 Nights And 25,000 Miles

    Actually, we crossed 100 nights in May, and 25K last year sometime. We picked up our 560 in September of 2014 and have enjoyed many trips close and far. Home base is in California, and most of our adventures are in California after of course the longest trek coming back from Wisconsin (the long...

    Usb In The Cabin From 12 Volts

    My 560 has a 12v outlet inside the storage compartment at the front of the cabin. I plug my phone charger in there. Doesn't the 550 have this also?

    Trimetric - on a galley door??

    My cheapo meter works well, no problems and it tells me what I need to know. I liked it well enough to get another to put on my auxiliary battery setup too.

    Fulton Swivel Jack Upgrade

    I am a firm believer that anything is possible. I personally don't like little pneumatic tires, I find my wheelbarrow is always flat when I need it. If you can find a little tire, you might try to find an airless one, or fill it with "Slime" or other airless solution. BTW, I replaced my Fulton...

    Tire Pressure

    Check out the inflation recommendation table in the middle of this page: ST Radial M8008 | Maxxis Tires USA It gives some recommendations for tire pressure for different sizes of tires and loads. I looked for a similar table for Goodyear and didn't find one, but they should be the same.
