Boreas Campers EOS12

[DFNDER]

They decided to leave them off the latest EOS builds apparently. Not really needed according to Boreas. I kind of like them to keep the cabin from shaking in the middle of the night when someone moves around, but apparently there’s no possibility of the trailer tipping with the kind of tongue weight it already has.

The EOS chassis appears to be one of the best so maybe it is more stable then others. I guess some folks rock thier trailers more then others 😉 But I like that solid feel especially when you un hitched your trailer on un level ground. Mine are removable and rock solid when deployed. Do admit thier cumbersome but I store them right ontop of the axel from exterior trap door. One could mode some out.

Yeah, I like the solid feel too. Will probably replace the bent one and remember to keep the air compressor on if I have them deployed to avoid any change in air pressure leaving too much weight on the stabilizer. That’s I guess what happened.

BTW, for anyone wanting an alternative table set-up, I’m almost done installing a modified Lagun table which will give us a lot more flexibility and space to move around. We decided we will never use the wider extra bed as the bench is fine for my daughter to sleep on, so no need for the center pedestal table taking up all that room all the time. Mounting a Lagun on a vertical wasn’t going to work since there is no place to do that, but I found a third party floor mount for the Lagun post and it works great. Bolts into the floor with the same screws as the pedestal mount. The single arm Lagun doesn’t really work with a center mount post, so I found a second arm set-up in Europe that makes it work. Have already mounted the floor mount and single arm and it’s solid. Just waiting for the second anrm to arrive and it’ll be done. Will allow us to push a smaller and lighter tabletop I got from Bed Bath and Beyond all the way over to one side or another to open space. No more shimmying alongside the table to get in and out of the bed. I’ll post pics when I receive the extra Lagun arm.

That’s pretty similar to what we have in my unit. We have a second leg to turn the table into a bed if necessary but rarely use it. Love having the additional space to get to and from the bed easily

You ever finish this project? I just bought an eos, taking delivery in a couple weeks. I've got 3 small children to sleep in the cabin with us and I'm looking for ideas with the table.

Yes I posted photos on the FB page. It came out great and completely changes the way we can move around inside. It does do away with the expanded second bed though.

It’s amazing how well this table solution works for us. Completely changes the way we move around and use the cabin. Believe Boreas will be offering something similar with a new bench design as well.

Yes, we have redesigned the pull out bed and now do the Laguna table standard. Definitely makes the interior feel a lot more roomy and easier to get around in!

I find the double arm Lagun gives the most flexibility. You have to get the second arm from a European supplier, but it’s a real Lagun arm and allows the table to move pretty much wherever you want it.

EOS-12 Cold Limit?

EOS-12 owners, what is the clodest temps you have used your rig? Did you use the kitchen water? Did you have water in your toilet reservoir? I'm going to be heading out into lows in the 25*F to 30*F. I know I have the tank heaters on the water and grey tanks. I'm concerned about water in the kitchen sink lines, and water in the toilet reservoir on the back exterior wall. Heater will be running during the night in those low temps. Highs during the day will be in the low 50s.

I feel like the toilet reservoir is fairly well insulated, and gets enough ambient heat from the the inside. I' 90 percent sure we got down to 20 degrees in CO before, wasn't an issue. The interior temp really helps to keep things from freezing. If you keep your kitchen in the stored position until it's time to cook and then store it, you will be plenty fine.
