Not a problem, you have an immediate need so hope @Jps190 can help you!

PM me if still available, thanks!

Nothing like standing at your TV while mulling over an AGM install with a good tasting cup of coffee in hand. Life is good!

I have successfully fished wires under the toilet; once through an existing gland for a an AC outlet at the front of the propane housing, and again when installing a double gland for the two cables leading to my DC-DC charger mounted within the aft dinette seat hatch. Using a light and mirror while leaning into the forward seat hatch, enabled viewing of the outer hull wall beneath the toilet platform to pinpoint where a hole needed to be drilled to avoid plumbing. View of AC outlet from inside housing. Exterior view. Double gland for DC-DC cable entry.

In recognition of 16 pages of “fun”, perhaps everyone should go back and read through the entire Post. And with that said, don’t tread on Crazy Horse!

To be clear, the cited statement “Every spring that I have seen broken has been the fifth leaf at the point where the fourth leaf ends.” is that of@ScubaRx

Referring back to your previous comment shown above, the (Dexter) “4-leaf spring packs” have the known failure rate.

Outdoor Shower faucet is cracked

Or just a simple cradle resting across the two adjacent pipes. -
We do the same to the extent possible; rather than soiling a cleaned black tank we found an alternative, used to line the wet bath head. However, if the drive home is several days with nightly boondocks then a trip to a local dump station is warranted once home.

I too have Verizon, and have gotten service using the WeBoost when camping in areas where ‘no cell service’ is posted. Sometimes one extra bar can make a difference. Getting the antenna up high helps!

Elite 2 Rooftop Reflective Canopy or Tarp

Something like this would certainly work to protect the Oliver if stored in the sun, not sure about A/C use other than folding back or raising the cover. I have used these over many years for the purpose intended, and know how durable and effective they are in blocking UV and reducing heat. FS has several sizes to choose; pic for illustration. -
I always make use of the Air-Lift system on my TV when the Oliver takes a dump; especially beneficial when on an uphill grade.

Where is the Dometic/Atwood furnace electrode?
Ronbrink replied to Steph and Dud B's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Good plan, however some precautions: Be sure to properly ventilate by cracking some windows; many question the safety of propane heaters like the Mr. Heater variety, but just heed the warning(s) when used indoors. Also, based on my experience there will be an increase in humidity and condensation in the cabin, a byproduct of hydrocarbon combustion. I have seen condensation run down the interior wall and wet the bedcovers and dinette cushions, especially during a night of use. This can be somewhat mitigated with more ventilation than thought needed. -
For us non-conformists, at least a walk-around a time or two in review of a ‘mental’ checklist!

Maybe for the male version, the female is a costly upgrade; some things never change!

For product details, go to powerwerx.com and search ‘environmental boot’. These boots are completely sealed when installed, front and back. Here is a pic of the ‘source side’ and ‘load side’ boots joined to power the DC-DC in the Oliver, the caps also mate up. Here is a pic of a plug extension wire (‘load side’ boot) I assembled to enable use of the bumper-mounted Anderson to operate my Dometic dual-zone staged under cap in the TV bed, as necessary.

I don’t think the inverter is ever actually Off unless the battery power is totally isolated, as evidenced by the 1Ah draw indicated on my EMS which is likely that of the inverter in ‘standby mode’. In my situation, the Xantrex only has an initial charge; in talking with the maker’s tech I was told my unit was not operating correctly and to check the settings. To date I have not resolved the issue. Currently, I have to flip the inline surface-mount circuit breakers to both the Xantrex and DC to keep from depleting the battery bank when in storage.

The DC/DC connection is the primary purpose of my bumper-mount install, but great for a convenient 12v power source. 💥KAPOW!!💥

This reminded me of a Furrion Solar Port inlet I believe installed by @John E Davies if memory serves me. I copied this pic for future reference; multi-use for solar and fridge.
