    Very informative…… Would you mind posting a link for reference? Could you post the dimensions, plate count, and fitting sizes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Heat Exchangers

    What kind do you plan on using? I plan on a plate exchanger for me. I have not picked it yet, but I would like to hear your thoughts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I am curious what chemicals did or would do to the slime…. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fresh water tank access ports —- yes or no

    For scale, if I took my fully loaded Tacoma and scaled that tank down based on truck weight, it would be the same as 24 gallons sloshing around. In that truck, I probably would barely notice it is there. Baffles would be nice, but I don’t see it as that big of a problem. The tank will be...

    Fresh water tank access ports —- yes or no

    My original intent was to get 2ea 60 gallon tanks so I could leave one empty unless I thought I needed it. But, that option is around $800 more than the single tanks based on what I could find that fits. I may just fill how much I think I need, then leave the rest empty. The truck is a heavy...

    Fresh water tank access ports —- yes or no

    That is going to be hard. The tank already has fitting friction welded in. If I drill and put in a bulkhead, the water height will be higher than the pump pickup probably. I could just flush using the pump pickup to drain. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fresh water tank access ports —- yes or no

    Thanks everyone! I plan to fill from reputable places. Realistically, I am staying in the US and Canada for as long as I can foresee, at least until I retire. I think I will skip the lid for now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Water purification, LED UV, specifics....

    I like stainless cam locks, but you will leak water when you disconnect. I use a zip tie when I am concerned about them opening. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fresh water tank access ports —- yes or no

    I plan on having a 125 gallon fresh tank with a gravity fill, a city water fill, a vent, a level sensor, and a pump suction line. Do you recommend having an inspection port? If so, which one did you use and how well did it seal? I am concerned that sloshing may cause the lid to pop off and...

    Induction cook top sizing and brands?

    Thanks all. I will have a hickory counter top, so I was hesitant to cut into it. If I did, I wanted to be able to swap the same size unit it. A drawer was an option too. I may just buy two individual units instead of a dual unit. May have to watch the power more closely though. Thanks...

    Induction cook top sizing and brands?

    Hello, I am planning on running an induction cook top. I am looking at a two burner model. Are there any standard sizes (in case I want to cut it in? ) Any recommendations on which unit to buy? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Recirculating Showers?

    They keep saying that….. but have yet to see it. I called a few times just to ask about it, but they never answered. I think I even emailed them. No response. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Opinions on seating dimensions, or dinette headroom minimiums?

    All, Just my two cents…. I am planning to make two parallel benches with a table between so I can use off the shelf patio furniture cushions. I am making the dimensions match what the cushions need instead of making custom cushions. Just my solution to a problem. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Reflectors?

    That is what I am contemplating. I was looking for a wealth of opinions, but only got yours and one other so far. I appreciate the response. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Reflectors?

    Thanks for the reply. I can think of two scenarios when I want to be more visible. One is driving and the other is camping off the road where I cannot get farther away. For example on some beaches, people may be scooting around me at night and I cannot get away from traffic. Otherwise, in...

    Reflectors?

    I am surprised no one has an opinion here. Maybe everyone with experience to share on remote? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Reflectors?

    Just for scale, the truck is 8’ wide, 27’ long, and 12.5’ tall. At 28,000 lbs loaded. So this is not a small pickup camper. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Reflectors?

    Do you find it better to put extra side reflectors for when you are in urban areas or is it better to be less visible while remote? I could see the advantage of not having a sand rail plow into you at night, but also not have people come check out your vehicle at night. Thoughts from those...
