I am glad you were able to see it. We also made a 1500 mile trip into Oregon for the event; not so bad seeing as many have traveled half way around the world to see it. We camped in a National Forest campground in the far north east corner of California, got up at 2am, then drove up into Oregon...

First, sorry for the misleading title, my backup lights are not burned, but they sure looked like it. We were sitting in camp behind the trailer and I noticed the backup lights had an irregular brown stain around the bulb. I checked that the lights were still working and put it on my list to...

I suggest looking at this Deep Cycle Battery FAQ. Lots of good info on batteries, plus a great selection of possible replacements. Good luck and let us know what you find.

An additional use for this setup is when camping in bear country, the fridge and the battery box can be put in a bear box over night. No danger of the big furries trying to break into your car or trailer.

Sorry to hear you have to make a decision under emergency conditions. I would be tempted to get the cheapest battery you can get that will start the car, then do your research and replace it soon with your best choice. Most Die Hards are excellent, but Consumers Reports identified some that are...

First, a little background to this project.

However on a recent outing in Sequoia National Park, we went on a hike one...

Randy - it works on the same principle as this 5 Gallon Bucket Air Conditioner: 6 Steps (with Pictures) only it needs to be plugged into 110. The one in the link is solar powered. Edit: actually, the bucket one I linked above, as described uses ice, but it could just as easily use water and a...

The furnace is located in the front storage compartment. It occupies almost all of the lower area, leaving only a small storage compartment accessible from the small door on the right side. The only visible things are the vents on the right side, and the registers where the hot air comes out...

I had this happen a few times and the problem for me is the latch part that is supposed to go under the ball gets trapped on top of the ball, nothing but to lift it up and start again. If you start with the trailer a little forward of directly over the ball, this will happen every time. I have...

That is a good thing to verify the basic trailer connections are there and that the connector is not damaged. However, it will not tell you if the ground and charging circuit uses the proper gage wire, and that the car charging voltage is enough to charge the trailer battery. Hopefully you can...
