Well this has been on my mind for last three years.... trying to balance traveling light and taking what was needed. I like to go for at least a week at a time and have been gone for almost 2 and half weeks for longest. What I have found it that clothes take room !! Its just me but when you...

Hi Sorry have been offline for a while... too busy camping and hunting. Yes, the furnace has been a must for me. Have used it since 2006 and not had a problem other then you cant turn in on then turn on the propane .... for whatever reason the system will not start. As long as you...

Ok Craig Going to Mels trailer restorations in Orange. Will take it in on monday. Will have Mike give you a call . Thank you Todd

Hi Craig Last time it was the window and seal. Now both are leaking. Since I don't want this ever to happen again I am taking it to one of two trailer restoration shops in Orange, Ca. Going to have them completely pull the windows and seal both inner and outer glass. I can not travel...

the seals look fine on the outside and as you can see the glass is not cracked.

Hey Evan... I just back from Sierras and went over my 100 nights in my trailer mark... The trip was great but coming home to water in my CI was not. Could you please change my label to 100 nights. Thnks Todd Killeen

Well this was an interesting trip to the sierra's... Got a little snow and then rain coming home. Noticed that the windows inside were wet when I woke up... thought it was just condensation... got home to find the entire insides of my trailer soaked and the wood swollen around both of them. The...

I agree with Ken... 80 to 85 watts is min i would use. Having had mine since 2006 with a 50 watt panel I wish I had gone bigger instead of slicing hairs on power used. The other problem I have found out is many of the places I like to camp don't have alot of sunlight...ie its in the trees...

hmmmm maybe its the wood then... will hope the toothpicks and new glue hold better. Will let you all know in a year....

Been using mine since I bought my CI in 2006... best thing since sliced cheese... my first unit has a problem with the circuit board and cant find someone to repair it in the US... I am going to write to Waco in Australia and see if they can help me. The new one I bought is digital...

Ok here's a thought that I have been running through my head... how to get better air-conditioning without jumping through hoops. If I had known how little I was going to use my roof vent I would have left that out and gone for this... I hate heat !!!! How about an external air...

Hi all Use my 550 with ac in Yuma AZ... gets about 119 during the day. This is what I have experienced. Keep it under a pop up and tree cover as much as possible. Also keep it on high... when i put it to lower setting it would stop working. Learned this through trial and error. Keeps it...

Also to note that better bottles of wine will have built up sediment that is not to be disturbed which is why you gently poor out the wine and have a sediment trap if not. New wine not aged long will not be a big deal to use the heal method :) .

Bill and Linda... found this site when I was having problems with my original fridge so bought a back uphttp://www.americanrvcompany.com/Waeco-Portables_c_47.html At the time (CF-35) I bought it was on sale for $ 479.00 ... right now they are 519.00 and yes the cover fits them. This one is...

Your doors are not light and going down the road they bound up an down... the more you travel the more they loosen... If you read my post on the door hinges you will see what I am talking about. I think the only real solution will be expanding the door hinge and adding bolts to top and bottom...

Well did what was first recommended... got the black stove paint and wire brushed the stove with my dremel had tool. Came out great. Want to tell you that first time cooking baked the paint on nicely. Since having my trailer since 2006 if I only need to do this once every five years I will be...

Well I glued and screwed my doors back. Will see how long that lasts. Thought came to mind.... why not make the hings wider- say add a 1/2 to 1 inch. That would allow you to stagger the screws and allow you to add bolts top and bottom. Could be sold as a refit like the sink and no more...

Was up at Lee Vining near Mono lake the week after trout opening day. The weather man said a storm was coming in and may snow... I had no fear !!!! I was in my Toaster so not to worry.. It snowed that night 2 to 3 inches. Felt bad for my buddy sleeping in his tent. Also found out snow dose...

Yup... its warm on cold nights and my friends cant believe I can sleep in a travel toaster....

Ok something else to write about... my burners are rusting. What would be the best way to fix this? As a side note how do I get into the area where the stove parks while traveling. There is lots of debris from other trips back there and can't get to it with the stove there. Is there a...
