    Best Kitchen spot-- side or tailgate? Bad weather and normal.

    Looks like he has a combination of side and rear kitchen and neither can be used from the inside.

    Best Kitchen spot-- side or tailgate? Bad weather and normal.

    I went round and round in my head on this and decided to put a trail kitchens box in the camper with the option to remove and set it outside on a picnic table. After 2 years, I have yet to take the box outside. The kitchen box and cooler fridge are both strapped to L track like a raft frame. I...

    Tufport Overlander

    They had a different "Overlander" rendering showing a box with no cabover saying coming soon for the last 3 years maybe 4. This image looks to me more like a deluxe topper than a camper.

    Order of XPS FRP Sandwich Panels

    Be careful with Starboard. It changes dimension a lot with temperature.

    Portable Propane water heater inside RV

    This brings up a good point about some RV designs being so sealed that CO2 levels could get dangerously high just from people breathing. Regarding the portable water heater. They say no to be on the safe side because it's not designed to be used in doors and has a high risk of being dangerous...

    Chinese Hydronic Heater Troubleshooting Resources?

    I've checked thermal cutoff stuff before with an infrared thermometer. You wouldn't be measuring an exact internal temperature but you could see if it shuts off every time the housing gets to a certain temp. If it has a thermocouple, the calibration could be off. If the heater wasn't very...

    Diesel heater exhaust penetration through foam core.

    It's hard to tell from the pictures. Can you fasten the heater to the flange and then fasten the flange to its mating surface?

    Diesel heater exhaust penetration through foam core.

    That makes sense for hydronic. For this I'm doing a hot air application.

    Maybe pack the void with this stuff. Ceramic fiber insulation good to 2400F and not very expensive. Amazon insulation link

    Diesel heater exhaust penetration through foam core.

    I'm curious what people have done when running a diesel heater exhaust through walls / floors with a foam core. Foamular 250 NGX has a max temp of 165F and diesel heater exhaust pipes can hit 400-600F. On my spacekap build I used a double wall boat through hull fitting. The hole through the...

    Battery bank and charger recommendations

    I took the plunge and ordered 2 Power Queen 200ah batteries and a Power Queen charger. Came to $1189 delivered with WA state tax. No frills here except having lots of juice. Alloy, I plan to wire these in parallel. LOL Recapping This system will be for off grid winter mountain resort weekends...

    Battery bank and charger recommendations

    That's an interesting thought regarding using the expansion battery as your stand alone power source. It certainly looks doable and has the right features that the other manufacturers don't. In my case since I don't already own one. At $1300 for the expansion battery plus another $150 for AC/DC...

    Battery bank and charger recommendations

    I see. I looked at the Pecron E2000LFP and it is limited to 2 3A outputs. Your right, the E1500LFP does have a 30A output. Ecoflow DeltaMax is only 2 3A outputs as we as Delta 2 Max. Delta pro has a 30A Anderson. It's too bad about the Pecron because both models are the same price with...

    Battery bank and charger recommendations

    Regarding mobile power stations. It looks like the Pecron and the Ecoflow both have 2 DC 5525 output jacks rated a 3A. This doesn't seem adequate for powering an RV. These power station's design seems to be geared more toward powering an inverter and running AC appliances. Am I reading this...

    Battery bank and charger recommendations

    I have a solar panel on my other camper and it works like you say. This application will not see much sun but if it does, I could add solar down the road.

    Interior lighting

    I ordered 4 boxes of these and inspected one. The emitted light is nice. The controls work well. Easy to dim. When turned of at the switch on the light, they remain off independent of remote switch. When left on and turned off remotely they remember their settings. Since this is a party trailer...

    Ski Shack "The Baker Box"

    R10 2" EPS in the ceiling and 1"EPS in the walls. The gaps have been filled with expanding foam and the wire looms have been foamed over. I cut the 1"foam with a break away blade knife. The 2" is a whiz with this Bosch foam cutting blade. The blade doesn't make any foam dust and cuts pretty...

    Ski Shack "The Baker Box"

    I'm finally getting to this project and now it's a race to get it far enough along to camp in for NY's. Here's a pic showing 1" EPS fitted in between the vertical wall ribs. The EPS is not bonded in and any gaps around the edges will be filled with expanding foam. There will be a layer of 0.5"...
