I wonder how much of the battery weight is forward of the axle. Weight distribution fore/aft of the axle is more important than length distribution, if I'm not mistaken. Also, is the sway thing still going to follow the same physics when it's under its own power? I haven't thought that all the...

OK, I got nothin' then. I don't have the ICECO and haven't had cooing issues with my SnoMaster that weren't solved by pre-cooling.

Just curious...did you pre-cool the fridge before the trip?

You'll be able to sell the plastic feet for a mint :)

Something about "Alignment Pins 2.0" resonates with me. I'm happy this is working out for you. Impressive project

Bro, I feel like you need to do a TedTalk about the crimes OBI has committed against humanity. #wedeservetoknow

I dunno. Sometimes I like to plug my fridge into the inverted AC outlets for variety. Keeps me entertained, and I enjoy the 15% efficiency loss.

They probably should, but might not. I'm thinking your trailer shouldn't be heavy enough not to. I have a built-in Trailer Brake Controller (TBC) on my truck, and have to adjust the gain on the controller for each trailer depending on the weight. I'm assuming your TBC would be adjustable as...

Word. Just dropped over $1k for year 3-4 on my D13.

I also had the repair done and still have a leak. I'm going to pull it apart this fall (luxury of living in Tucson is I'm not gonna get any rain until Feb so I have time), replace it with a new one I got from OBI, and I'll do a post. I'm not in a hurry to go out and work on the trailer until it...

OBI said they wouldn't work with the dealers, but there are two sides to every story, right?

OBI is moving to direct-to-consumer sales. They're putting out 3-4 units a week right now, and they'll control the price tags. All of these cleared out units are from dealers OBI won't work with anymore per the shop manager last week.

Why the negativity towards OBI? Let's say, for argument's sake, that they forgot a VIN sticker on one of the units. That would be one unit where they forgot a sticker. And that would be one case in hundreds of Dwellers sold. And it's a totally fixable issue. That's a pretty good track record. I...

My sticker is on the back side of the crossbar on the tongue. Double-check the registration papers from your purchase, which should have that info, because your dealer would need that to even get the trailer from OBI in the first place. Double-check your frame, too. The early models they were...

Looks photo-shopped :ROFLMAO:. But I agree. Nearly 100 nights in my trailer and the biggest issue was the battery bank, which I replaced with Lithium for $2k. There are a lot of ways to spend $60k, $85k, $150k on a trailer out there, but having more of something than I need or use doesn't...

So I didn't read this until AFTER I stopped at OBI this morning to pick up some parts (DO35 hitch [thanks for getting me down that rabbit hole, @CowboyKyle) and a new skylight). My trailer is out of warranty, but I happened to be in Phoenix for a concert anyway, so I swung by on my way home to...

Interesting, you still had the bank giving out with 300Ah of lithium? I'm surprised. I will say that 300W of solar panels in practice only produces about 160W of solar power in direct sunlight at 80F (measured at the controller). I was talking to a friend of mine who went to a "solar talk" at an...

My hole is still uncovered; I haven't been inspired by anything yet. We don't even see it anymore. Many of us have tried to understand why AGMs are performing so poorly in the Dwellers, but I know the fridge is the primary culprit. I keep half of my fridge at 37F and the other half as a freezer...

All other propane elements are working? Heater works? Stove works? I haven't tried, but I think it's supposed to be plug-and-play. Drop the TV on the outside mount and plug it in on the outlets by the USB outlet to the left. They're supposed to be wired the same way. Anything you could watch...

Got out of the heat here in AZ and found a nice little shady spot with no one in sight. Only a couple hours max of partial sunlight on the panels, and the Li battery never dropped below 13.1V, so we're very happy with the performance of the upgrade. Money well spent. @S J check out this post and...
