Generator recharge with solar roof panels
mossemi replied to Citrus breeze's topic in Ollie Boondocking
As we say in Florida, "When your up to your butt in alligators, it’s hard to remember your objective was to drain the swamp". The Honda EU2000i will provide enough power for most things in the trailer with the exception of the air conditioner unless your Ollie has a EZStart installed. You will have to manage your power consumption and not overload the generator as JD mentioned above. Mossey -
Generator recharge with solar roof panels
mossemi replied to Citrus breeze's topic in Ollie Boondocking
The solar system will not effect the operation of the generator. The Ollie should act just like it does when you are plugged into shore power. Mossey -
Generator recharge with solar roof panels
mossemi replied to Citrus breeze's topic in Ollie Boondocking
I assume you have never connected the generator to your OTT based on your question. Do you have a neutral bonding plug and an adapter plug for the trailer power cord to plug into the 120v outlet on the generator? Mossey -
Plumbing upgrades with SharkBite fittings
mossemi replied to Nick R.'s topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
The tools needed to install SharkBite fittings and PEX pipe are a PEX pipe cutter and a SharkBite fitting. The tools needed to remove SharkBite fittings are Disconnect Clips or Disconnect Tongs, which are SharkBite products and are pipe size dependent. SharkBite makes 3 different types of fittings and those branded EvoPEX are not reusable. You just cut the pipe and throw the fitting away. SharkBite’s warranty specifically states that it applies to SharkBite pipe used with their fittings. Mossey -
Hull #193 came factory equipped with a Dometic fridge and a single fan that is controlled from a switch in the main panel in the entryway. My B+ power comes from the bottom of the fridge up to the thermostat and continues up to the switch. The second switch wire completes the circuit back to the fan. The negative wire also comes from the bottom of the,fridge and runs directly to the fan. You may not have access to the bottom of your fridge, but I have two removable vent panels. There may be additional DC power already at the switch panel, but it’s simple run from the attic to the entry switch panel if you need it. Mossey

Shiny (and heavy) Stainless Steel 6” Round Deck Hatch
mossemi replied to Frank C's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
My 6" inspection hatch in the propane tank housing is really discolored and this hatch would certainly be an upgrade. Maybe after I win a lottery! Mossey -
Another excellent write up, thank you! I have had my slide tray out for a re-paint after a battery leak, so I wholeheartedly agree with working the support bolts under the battery box is a challenging endeavor. Four hands to make doable. You detailed instructions will be help someone in the future, so kudos to y’all in the great northwest! Mossey

Successful dry-camping but Grounded by axles
mossemi replied to Steph and Dud B's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
On a positive note, it’s great that both Dexter and Oliver are being proactive about the issue. I know you waited a long time to pickup the Eggcelsior and now you have to wait a little longer to use as you would like to,bummer. Mossey -
Pete, what is the black pole by pine tree used for? TV or internet or just wet clothes? Mossey

Thank you for the additional details. The more details you share, the more impressive your modification becomes! Mossey

Wow! That’s a very nice installation and your antenna mount is exceptional. I do love your creativity. Does the PEPWAVE antenna require a ground plane or is it built in? Thanks for posting your successful modification. Mossey

I only have a few months and about 1500 miles with a hanging shower head, so for me it’s just an excuse to use another noodle. Mossey

My Seaflo hatch was listed as 12x24". My existing hole was wide enough but not tall enough. So I enlarged the hole with a multi tool. I also used nuts and bolts to attach it. The curve of the vanity face required careful tightening of the hatch. I constantly checked the latch’s operation as I tightened the hardware. The sides will have a little more gap than the top and bottom and that’s why I used the butyl tape, which has a little more body than silicone caulk. Mossey

I covered the area to be drilled with blue masking tape. Then I did my layout on the masking tape and then used a hole saw and drilled in reverse. Worked pretty good with new drill bits. Mossey

This photo shows the stock LE2 bath plumbing that matches my 2017. The red and blue PEX lines exiting the right side of the photo go to the faucet/shower fixture. The blue PEX exiting the left side is the toilet supply as the text in the photo SNY SD UP posted indicates. Mossey

Bathroom vanity towel holder caulking alternative
mossemi replied to Frank C's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Tooletries I think I have 5 white ones and 4 grey ones and 2 black hooks. The white show a little dirt but it usually washes off. No dirt on the gray or black ones. No tears, fraying or hard water, soap scum spots or discoloring. Ask your wife if she has any silicone hot pads or maybe a dish drying mat. If so, she’ll vouch for how tough they are. If she doesn’t have any silicone kitchen products, maybe you can kick the tires with silicone hot pad at the nearest kitchen gadget store. They are very robust. Mossey -

This is the product I used to seal the bath vanity deck hatch when I replaced the stock vanity access cover. Mossey -
Towing with vehicles that really don't do the job safely
mossemi replied to Trainman's topic in Towing an Oliver
Would you provide the towing and cargo capacity of your Ram 1500 for guidance purposes? Mossey
