Same problem with us and interior condensation, just a different location at the back door. The aluminium extrustions on both the door and door frame, go fully uninterupted from outside to inside, thus..... Working on an insulation fix now, a bit easier than yours with only stepped flat...

Cydeps Another user of the camper/truck bed gap here. You probably already know this but the remote sensor transmits just fine through a watertight plastic container. I have used the same baking powder jar with a screw lid for 10+ years. Initially, I made an extra lid gasket out of a bike...

Pushing the "roads to no where" yesterday, a little bit early to be up high with still too much avalanche debris, two difference slides...... But back in the river valley, April is the best time to be in an Interior Temperate Rain Forest so as to avoid being sliced and diced by the still...

We tried through our HH insurance but the Calgary based adjuster just could not get her head around the circumstances and it seemed that if there was no box on their form that said, "just flew away from their stuff" it wasn't going to happen. Trying to explain that we actually did just leave...

PNy Absolutely on the gear. Some factory somewhere is making some more shiny stuff for us. And of course, had we had your field medical diagnostic expertise, we would not even be having this conversation:)!!!

Don't Do it......... Just a couple of photos for a diversion from the usual EXP stuff. Last summer, my "co-paddler" and I had to abandon our kayaks and gear while nearing the end of a trip circumnavigating Great Slave Lake in the NWT. This was some 70 kms across the lake from Yellowknife. We...

Aha. Probably a little late now but we would highly recommend the pizza from the bar/restaurant that is in the little shopping area "downtown".......!

Excellent advice for/from the north! where are you cooling your heels waiting for fuel?

Sorry for the delay in answering. I have not had the CPT camper in any really serious winter conditions yet but in conditions well into the freezing range, all has been fine. I think I mentioned that my camper was basically a prototype and I believe the new ones are much improved. Mine had...

Looking Great! We have been watching the temps so looking pretty good. Nice to see some sun and blue sky! Dean, On a semi-relative note to "Ice,Baby,Ice" and not to highjack your thread :) but we got some great news tonight. Our friends just did the 140 km return sled trip across to the...

Good news DM sent and a bunch of contact info on it's way.....

I'm on it!! I'll either post something here or phone you later today. -16 there this morning, time to crack out the tshirts!!

So you guys were down by the Airport. The lake is looking considerable less "liquid" than when were there in August! Our friend has the small airline compound right behind the airport terminal parking and we have left our vehicle there a couple of times. Sure fun to walk around all those old...

Here is a slant on the problem from a different perspective. As much as I like propane, maybe you could cut down the amount of moving parts, number of single purpose componets of perhaps dubious pedigree, water lines/containers (potentially with anti-freeze), propane tanks, etc. by going a...

Well, this is just in... https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/igloo-recalls-over-1-million-coolers-amputations-1.7458456 Damaged and amputated fingers from a cooler is (are?) not a laughing matter and should be taken seriously. However, the availablity of ice from said coolers immediate to the...

Boy, I'm no pump expert but I think the simple immersion types of fairly low pressure pumps that sit in water or gasoline have no check valve but instead, rely on the fact they are immersed in liquid to prevents back flow from the line. Of course, the pressure to move the liquid up is created...

The immersion pumps are basically a lift pump. You would have no issue lifting water from an underfloor tank to your sink(or container) in the living compartment. The beauty is that the low pressure water line (Nalgene brand in my case) stays charged after initial use but once you lift the...

Eric What a day in BC's West Kootenays, looking east over Kootenay Lake and the peak is Mt. Loki.

In my last camper build, I wanted to keep the water system very simple, lightweight and completely plug and play so as to do away with both the usual winterizing and as well, all of the fixed water lines. I used a marine Whale Brand High pressure immersion pump and two identical 5 USgal plastic...
