We hope to go with something like this for our truck but your departure angle may make this one no good. For ours we will need a receiver hitch extension or I may just add a receiver hitch to the side of the swing out box. Then the bikes will swing when we need access to the back compartment...

Loonwheeler, Solar controller I believe is under the sofa. From memory the shower is is a Hansgrohe 122629 Due to the thin depth of the 2"bathroom wall I needed a valve that was external and yet still temperature balanced anti scald type unit. The Hansgrohe met the conditions. We will see...

Thanks Guido. I would love to take the credit for that idea but that is a regular ITB option on their builds. It will make it very nice though as the shore plug, cable and water line will be right on he door. Ward

We will be purchasing the Outback Power PSX-240 Autotransformer in the enclosure with the temperature activated cooling fan. Thanks for all of the help everyone!!! Ward

Wow Mark. More amazing update shots. That wood is going to look excellent! Ward

Haven't ordered it yet but I will make sure we do. THANKS!! Ward

Mike, we ordered our blinds from Home Depot. The company is MaxxMar Inc. a Canadian company. They are double roller shades with no strings or chains and no attachments at the bottom. There is a whitish shade that is the blackout shade and a darker colour shade that only blocks 10% of the...

Sorry, a bit late with the Friday photo updates. Here are the shore hookups coming together nicely. The water fill is at the top left of the compartment. This photo has a lot going on. Blinds are in. Shower is in. Slide out counter inserts are in. Flip up counter over entry step is in...

It looks like we will be going with the Outback 120v-240v autotransformer. Just have to figure out the wiring now. Ward

I agree with IdaSHO. Hand rubbed poly is a great way to go. Especially with the limited amount that you will have to do. I did a whole kitchen and used all hand rubbed poly. You will love the results. A side benefit is that a hand rubbed finish is quite easily repairable in place...

Maybe I missed it but are you spraying the clear coat onto the wood trim or brushing it? Ward

Looking good. Nice to see it all coming together! Ward

Will this setup with the transformer draw any more power than using two single induction plug in 120v cook tops? Will it draw my battery bank any fast using a 240v? Ward

IdaSHO, unfortunately not. It seems I may have a resolution though. Using a step up transformer. Outback Power was suggested and it looks like their model FW-X240 may be exactly what we need. I spoke with a tech at the inverter manufacturer as well and it was the same model he suggested. We...

DiploStrat, in total honesty, I wanted to surprise Annie with a high end Wolf cook top. It was the one splurge I was doing for her. Now the hole is cut in the counter to fit the Wolf and the installers realized it is 240v not 120v. I am trying to find a way to salvage the use of the Wolf cook...

Since our Samlex EVO -3012 is a pure sine wave inverter wouldn't a transformer setup of some kind be cheaper than a second inverter? (If the second inverter needs to be of the same quality/cost as the one we already have.) Ward

Thanks guys. Don, since the induction cook top doesn't actually create heat but excites the iron molecules in the pot, could it be that it uses less power than a heating element? Ward

I am looking for a way to make 240v power from batteries and an inverter. Right now we have 3 290 amp hour batteries Samlex EVO-3012 inverter What is the easiest (read cheapest) way to step up the power from 12v to 240v? I want to be able to run a 240v Induction cook top and am wondering if...

Nice to meet you! Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to chip in any time you wish. Or just :lurk: . That's cool too. Ward

Thanks Jeremy! We had a glitch come up on Monday. The installers realized that the Wolf induction range I had spec'd was 240v not 120v. I had to go back to the drawing board a bit. Thought for a while about putting in a step up converter to run the two burner Wolf cooktop on 240. After...
