But the drains smell like nothing, so not sure how it could affect inside???
That’s the P-trap's job or in the Ollie, it's the one way valve under the kitchen sink topgun2 mentioned above. The bathroom has a P-trap and it creates a block in the vent system with water in the trap. The one way valve under the kitchen sink does the same with a valve.

You said you don’t smell it anywhere else in the Ollie, so maybe you are bringing it inside when you enter the door,

If I remember correctly that’s the reason I went to work everyday!

TY. That's what I first suspected. But I would expect the smell to be stronger at the drain if that were the case. And that's not true.
Don't forget that the drain vent is above the closet and you would be closest to it while entering the Ollie.

If I had to guess, I would say it smelled like natural gas (specifically the mercaptans they add to it).
But, I'm assuming, if we really did have a propane leak, the alarm would have gone off (or we would be dead by now).I would not rely on a detector, if we smell propane, we shut of the tanks and start troubleshooting. Trust your instincts!

Krunch and I climbed Star Dune in August of 2009. The 750' climb was like walking in quick sand. It being August, we started climbing before daylight to beat the heat.

We turn the water pump off after each use. Just a habit we developed over time. With 2 switches, we are never too far away from one. And under the subject of TMI, we don’t flush yellow at night, we accumulate and flush in the morning. We also turn off the city water supply when we leave the campground.

Adding in some portable solar is a much easier, and safer/ground level, alternative. That's our solution, anyway.
Adding more solar panels either on the roof or the ground is a more expensive solution, but probably the most practical.Mossey

Was the water running at the base of the dunes? How was the campground, crowded?

I bought my first Hitchrider for a Toyota Highlander and a utility trailer and I was very pleased with the product. When we decided to buy an OTT, we sold the Highlander and bought a used Toyota Landcruiser. To my dismay, the Hitchrider would not fit the LC. A call to Hitchrider and with some requested measurements, they produced one that fit the LC. Great product and company. I am using the original model with my new truck.

Either way - it ain't pretty.
I was content thinking it was unique! Now that I know it isn’t, I agree.

My 2017 LE2 door looks identical! I do not think wind had anything to do with it, but maybe sun exposure. It has puzzled me for several years and I haven’t really figured out how to fix it. The skin does pull the styrofoam apart, so I’m not sure if replacing the skin is the answer. I am leaning towards applying something to the existing skin, just haven’t figured out what.

Please tell me that those valve stems don't have Mickey Mouse ears on them! 😂

When I was 11, Mickey Mouse was in second place, right behind Bonanza! And Captain Kangaroo was in last place.😎

My dad and his poker buddy’s guarded those cards and chips better than the whiskey and the clothes pins where in use on my rubber band gun!

I wonder when they started using PVC instead of ABS for the drain pipe?

What AWG is your break point between Wago's and Crimp to posts?
I find WAGO Lever Nuts are extremely useful when testing or troubleshooting circuits and combining different AWG sizes. So to answer your question, I use the 221-4xx series up to 12 AWG and the 221-6xx series up to 10 AWG. I also use tape on the levers just like I do on wire nuts.

I am cranking up the front of the trailer and the opposite side, and it is a time-consuming process.
I often take the outside shower head off of the hose and pump it out. Something else to try is opening the fresh water drain valve on your way home from a camping trip. Although I would much rather water my property than the road.

This is entirely another and separate issue. These sensors will generally get you "in the ballpark", but, if you really want to know if you are on third base or over in right field you are probably not going to be happy with your readings.😢
Bill
You mean it is like the gas gauge in my truck, not the digital information?

What did you use to enlarge the hole for the hatch?
Sorry I didn’t answer that question the first time you asked it. I used a multi tool to trim the top and bottom. My original cutout was wide enough, but not tall enough.
Good luck on your project!
