RE: Slow start system for air conditioner

www.microair.net is the one I use.
Use discount code of FATE to get $25.00 off.
I installed one on my Coleman Mach 8 a few years ago. I show how to install it in this video

RE: Does microwave need to be an "RV" microwave?

My microwave has died at age 14, so I'm looking to replace it.
Question: does the microwave in an RV necessarily have to be an "RV" microwave. (Some microwaves are marketed as "RV microwaves".)
I've never seen an Microwave labeled as an "RV Microwave".
There are brands of microwaves that you only see on RVs and not at Home Depot or your favorite appliance store. High Pointe is one that comes to mind.
On High Pointe, and likely other microwaves used by RV OEMs, the case is set up so you can attach a mounting flange to it to which holds it in a cabinet. Other than that, a microwave is a microwave is a microwave.

RE: new fantastic fan

i will never buy another ff, i put one in my rv last summer and it has always been noisy,
Ditto.
I have a Fantastic Fan in the cabover area (bed) of my truck camper. It's loud. IO don't use it.
I replaced the bathroom vent fan with a Maxxfan Deluxe and it's much quieter. I bought the 10 speed model.

RE: Running a/c off generator while towing

I was going to mount generator in the back on the bumper,
I've yet to find a travel trailer bumper that will support that kind of weight.
Some of the hitches on TTs also won't support much more than a cargo basket full of stuff, or a bike rack and bikes.

RE: It's been fun and informative but....

I gave them an outstanding deal. :B
Hopefully you wrote $0 on the title and bill of sale under the sale price so they didn't have to pay sales tax at the DOL Office.
When I buy stuff private party in WA, I ask the seller to put $0.

RE: It's been fun and informative but....

....I've sold my truck camper!
I gave my camper to my son and wife.
So which is correct, Did you sell it or give it away?

RE: Big quality of life mod

I would describe my pump noise as a humm not an earthquake. No vibrating walls just a steady hum coming from the pump

RE: Can you list your rv for sale

Did you try listing on craigslist.org ?
For RVs it is a free listing,
Costs $5.00 in some areas now. I know this is true in WA State.
Fee was implemented about a year or so ago.

RE: Cabover clearance w/new truck?

Ford did away with the shark fin antenna, my truck has (2) lower profile antenna's, 1 on each corner at the rear of the cab.
That's good news. I saw a Ford the other day with two bumps near the CHMSL and wondered if they were new style antennas.

RE: Cabover clearance w/new truck?

Occasionally the sharkfin antenna of Ford trucks has poked a hole in the underside of the cabover of an Arctic Fox truck due to lack of clearance.
3/4" should be good, but you might consider checking out this group

RE: Spare tire pressure

I'd make the dealer solve the problem and let them deal with getting reimbursed from the manufacturer.

RE: New Ranger for towing

I... Maybe even a small 5th wheel.
I've never seen a 5th wheel that's small enough to be towed by a mid-sized truck in recent years.

RE: Making my onboard generator quieter

The title of this post is deceiving.
It's not deceiving at all. Watch the video and you can see that the resonator did indeed reduce the sound.

RE: Maxxfan delux latent power draw

Is it only the version that's operated via remote that has a parasitic draw?

What happened to your display monitor? It needs a thorough cleaning.
I put a thermometer in my Engel compressor
