    I have questions about wiring 12 volt LED light fixtures in fiberglass motorhome

    Use parallel wiring. Make the connections at the lamps using Nylon Quick Disconnect Pairs. Only use butt splices when your wire runs come up short in length. Tie the nodes together using Blue Sea terminal strips, terminal jumpers and ring terminals. One strip for the positive connections...

    Mattresses

    Things to consider is the ability to source fitted sheets unless you intend to always use sleeping bags. Some foam mattress can be rock hard when used when the weather is cold.

    making a FG home; many questions!

    Welcome to the forum. Go Sprinter! http://www.sprinter-rv.com/sprinter-rv-conversion-sourcebook/ Fuso Canters are considered commercial trucks. Insurance for the truck during a build and after isn't impossible to get, just problematic. Parking one up in a residential subdivision can be...

    Fuso with an Aliner

    Interesting! Wouldn't touch it. Getting insurance on these trucks is problematic since they are considered commercial. From a visual standpoint, the camper looks awkward. Not sure one could get an underwriter to write a policy to cover it. If your looking for a camper, consider a true RV.

    Suggest a single burner propane stove?

    I was looking myself. I ended up going with butane. Sometimes I use the BBQ plate. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/s/ref=is_s_ss_sc_3_7?k=butane+stove&sprefix=butaine...

    Thoughts on these two for Expo rigs?

    Your getting into the commercial realm with those trucks. If you can source vehicle insurance on the bare truck and chassis, anything is possible.

    2017 / 2018 Fuso FG4x4 Qs?

    You'll be lucky to find a new FG at a dealer to look at. My understanding is that their a special order, drop shipped to a dealer from a port on the west coast. EC would know better than anyone what the model changes are since their product needs to fit on the truck and chassis. Send an email...

    Sleeping in Walmart parking lot with roof top tent

    The iOverlander and the UltimateCampground apps should help you locate plenty of low cost and/or free places to camp. Regarding a RTT, roll into a Walmart lot and open it up after the sun goes down and pack up as the sun is peeking in the morning. Hang out parked up somewhere else like a local...

    House battery charging eating fuses

    Is the hardware and wiring to support the above still in place? Are you utilizing it? Is it just tied up and hanging some where?

    House battery charging eating fuses

    Sounds like the constant duty relay is blown as well. That's three. Check for shorts to ground in the cable to the relay. Bypass it all together if you can to see if you blow another one.

    A Hawk in the Arctic

    +1 on the DampRid packets. I utilize them in my hard sided truck camper. It doesn't take long for water to appear in the bottom.

    Dually or single rear wheel?

    Do your homework, having the DPF and related emissions hardware removed may restrict where you can drive in European countries, especially in metropolitan areas.
