    Victron Smartshunt Bluetooth Battery Monitor

    This is a nice unit. I installed one a few months ago and based on the data I’ve gotten I am converting all my lighting to LED. One halogen bulb uses more power than the vent fan on high. It also helps when deciding to run the Dometic or carry ice or set up the solar panel.

    Ham Radio

    I have a Garmin 750i (GPS, camera, Inreach - 2 way texting/and tracking) and have been pleased with it. It’s a “brick” though.

    Tongue Jack Upgrade - Maybe

    I originally used angle iron ubolts on the opposite side and just wanted a plate over the old holes. It took me a few minutes to wonder about the size of the pivot hole in the ARK. Your method does look good.

    Tongue Jack Upgrade - Maybe

    In the garage the wheel pivots easier. I have one on my equipment trailer that I use for tree farm work. It makes it a lot easier to move on soil. It is a larger model with larger wheels. I had the feeling that the trailer would roll away from me. I think that I’ll tether (lightly) the...

    Tongue Jack Upgrade - Maybe

    Well, we are a few hours out of sync. I found that if the mounting plate on the ARC jack is removed it is a direct replacement on the existing mounting plate from Campinn. The Campinn jack can be removed by the snap ring, the ARC jack, sans the mounting plate, can be slipped on and the snap...

    New awning option for Camp-Inn

    There is a additional(optional) triangle panel that attaches with velcro to “square” the back over the galley.

    Tongue Jack Upgrade - Maybe

    I have looked at the non-rachet drive model. The ability to move over a gravel campground spot is my desire. Nice to see that two bolt holes are aligned. Perhaps angle iron u-bolts on the forward end (they are triangular). I look forward to your “final” solution.

    New awning option for Camp-Inn

    I just had this awning installed and it is a really great addition. Craig and Cary (and their employees) made sure that it fit and adjusted it to fit my standard garage door yet accommodate my height. Craig walked me through the deployment and stowage twice and offered more practice if I wanted...

    New Leveling Solution

    If you have an Iphone and an Apple Watch the app “Clinometer” can be helpful. I place the iphone on the camper, activate the app on both the watch and phone, then go to the three leveling points and read the watch as I level.

    Vent Covers

    You might be referring to a stainless steel thermos mount. I have two one quart Unovac stainless steel thermos that I fill with coffee. They mount inverted with a spigot and cup holder. I’d send a picture but my camper is in my garage. Maybe later.

    Vent Covers

    Is this what you are inquiring about? I have the Rainmatic fan but I found that it would close during, wait for it...... rain. The result was no fresh air. With the vent cover the Rainmatic still closes but it needs to be a really heavy blowing storm. The cover clips on with four pins ( about...

    We Boost?

    I have a Wilson Amplifiers WeBoost 4Gx. It has improved cell reliability and internet performance. Don’t expect a great leap but I have been able to make calls from inside the trailer when I couldn’t outside. If you are way out in the woods it will not turn a zero signal into a signal, too far...
