Replaced the 3.2 GPM pump, head damaged by plastic shavings left in the tank, with a smaller 1.9 GPM unit and a pre-filter/strainer. First time using Watts Aqualoc/Sea Tech push-on fittings, which seem quite nice to work with.
(Mark sent me the pre-filter.)
Did Mark cover the new pump? I'll have to check if I have a filter on my system.
I didn’t ask. I have a spare assembly I will swap into the previous pump to get it back to a working state, then I may carry it as a spare or sell it.
The hot water heater in this trailer maxes out at 1.5 GPM, and having a 3.5 GPM pump just wastes water.

I found some rivets that were not seated as well as large gaps between the aluminum "belly"pan and the frame. I sealed the gaps with silicone.
Tomorrow I'll will be running 12VDC up to the "headboard" part of the trailer . I don't think I can get AC power into the cabin without major work.
I'll have to use a small cig plug inverter for charging the laptop.

Installed a Mobilemark antenna and Pepwave LTE router:
Nice . Is this for amplifying existing wifi or for a 4G signal?
Dedicated router for the trailer, so we can work sitting at the edge of network coverage. It’s a Peplink BR1 Mini LTE router.

Will probably do something similar. Great idea!
