BillGHON, Search for and reach out to Elite owner DonnaDuane. He is a skier also and I believe he has done a fair bit of winter camping while skiing. Mossey

I just tried the condensed view instead of the expanded and Mikey likes it. Mossey

Thank you, very good information. I’ll have to share it with Krunch because my involvement in the food department has to do with grilling and chilling. Oh and the Oreo's are my responsibility as well. Mossey

The converter panel under the dinette table has 12v DC fuse and a 120v AC breaker for the refrigerator. Is the 12v DC fuse good or is it blown? Is the 120v AC breaker tripped? And as David mentioned, be sure to verify the refrigerator is plugged into the AC outlet underneath the sink. Do you have the ability to test 12v DC or 120v AC circuits? Mossey

Sounds like fun and I’ll give it some thought. But I must warn you that all of my treasures are junk. Mossey

Yes I did use the shower house. It needed service the first day and night, no hand soap or toilet paper in one of the stalls. It was much better the second and third days. It turns out that one of the camp host couples left for an emergency on our first day, so they were short handed. The replacement hosts actually showed up about an hour after we did, but didn’t begin working until the next day. All of the spots were clean and level, but ours had a little more privacy due to the fact that it was actually a long drive way with two spots and we were in the rear. There wasn’t any access problems for us as the front spot was only used the first night by the replacement hosts. So I’ll give the park a B rating overall, as we would visit again and hope for cooler weather. Mossey

Black Rock Mountain, a Georgia State Park. August 29-31, 2020. Elevation 3600+. Hot, wet and humid after the remains of Hurricane Laura past through Western North Carolina which is just 50 miles north of the park. But we were camping for the first time in 2020, so we just sucked it up. Mossey

And I thought owners were OTTO's😃. Mossey

Yukon, I didn’t replace my fuse. It was a different Oliver owner, ShallowGal. I’m interested to find out if your fans thermal fuse crimps are indeed magnetic. In the meantime, I ordered 50 of these. They won’t be in Florida until the end of the month. If you can wait until then I’ll send you a few. Anybody else interested? Just send me a PM with your address. Mossey

Does the parallel crimp connector conduct heat more uniformly that a typical butt connector and that’s why it is used by the fan manufacturer? Does the lack of an insulator make it a high temp connector or are they made from different materials which handle higher heat? Looking at the pictures that Yukon posted of the thermal fuse, it seems that Oliver used a closed end crimp connector to connect the black house hot wire to the white thermal fuse wire. Would that satisfy the high temp and the heat conductivity requirements or is the fuse protecting the house wiring and the closed end crimp connector? Mossey

Yep! I confuse myself sometimes, bhncb. Thanks for the frown👍. Mossey

ShallowGal had to replace a thermal fuse on the the B+ wire at the bath fan earlier this year. The MaxxAir fan still worked because the bath fan and rectifier diode is at the the end of that circuit. You mentioned that you did not test the fan, but did you test the power supply at the the fan? Mossey

Sherry, It looks like GoalZeroSupport answered the question about charge controllers not being included with their panels. That seems like a blanket statement to me in that none of their panels have charge controllers, unless I have totally missed the question. And Krunch would suggest that I am in my own little world, so that is a distinct possibility.🙄 I do agree that installing a charge controller between the sidewall port and the batteries would solve the problem. And I must have missed a post referencing the Yeti panels. Mossey

Welcome to the forum. Look forward to your expertise and guidance. Mossey

Mossey

Sherry is correct on all points. I did a quick look at the Goal Zero website and only looked at a couple of their panels. Neither panel I checked on included solar charge controllers, so they would not be a good fit for your Oliver because you would need to add a charge controller between the Zamp Sidewall Port and the batteries. It looks like their panels a designed to charge their batteries and power stations which have solar charge controllers built in. I’ll look again if you provide a model number of the panel you are referring to. Mossey

These measurements refer only to the area covered by the flooring of your choice. Mossey

I assume you are talking about the window shade frame is coming loose while traveling. Mine have done that as well and it’s usually after I have taken them off for cleaning. I have moved a few clips to a different location because the clip has worn the area where the frame is pushed onto the clip and they no longer grip as well as they should. Sherry sent a previous post about the window shades that Spike started and he mentions talking to the shade manufacturer, who stated the the clips can be deformed by tightening the mounting screw too much. I think that is a good place to start. If that doesn’t help you can try manually spreading them like Spike did. Mossey

This search of the forums turned up this post. https://olivertraveltrailers.com/forums/topic/3543-atwood-propane-alarm/ Mossey

I’m sure this is a silly question, but did you twist the screw cap counter clockwise before pushing the collet towards the fitting and then pulling the pipe as the instructions on the package indicate. Mossey

This solution is not quite what you are asking for, but it is an idea that Foy_Mirna custom built for another owner. And I believe Mike and Carol built a version as well, but I can’t find it. Mossey

Maybe it’s the color, but the looking at the light blue Maverick from the rear reminds me of late 60's Camaro. And the tangerine Maverick reminds me of a 1970 Opel GT. I double dated in a friend’s Maverick in high school and I never drooled over a Maverick like I did a Camaro or maybe even an Opel GT. Mike's right about 50 years and those years have brightened my memories of the back seat of a Maverick. Mossey
