I use a Progressive Industries EMS at the power pole, so I can immediately see the quality of power at the power pole and see if there are any error codes. I still check the one in the attic, but not necessarily in a hurry.

@Tony and Rhonda Tony: I am going to be installing a single circuit BlueSea System switch as my solar cutoff switch. Oliver installed a single pole switch in my friends 2021 Oliver, which he bought new. It is a BlueSea System model 6006 switch and is rated from 300 amps continous. (I can only assume that OTT is following code by only interupting the + wire, as they have been doing that for a few years now). Because your and my access hatches are larger than on the 2021+ trailers, we can not install the switch next to the hatch, as OTT did. Instead, I plan to install my BlueSea switch inside the pantry on the wall against the area where the wiring to the Zamp Solar Charge Controller is located. This location allows the + wire from the solar panels to the Zamp Controller to be moved off the Zamp and moved over to the BlueSea switch. Then only a new short cable is necessary to be installed from the BlueSea switch back to the Zamp Controller to complete the circuit. My research indicates that the Zamp Solar Charge Controller is using 8 AWG cable wiring. Yes, I will have to cut a circular hole in the pantry wall, but that is easier than trying to epoxy a HDPE backing plate inside that small area in back of the Zamp and the switch is than accessable without reaching into where all the wiring is. If anyone sees my approach to be a issue, please let me know.

Welcome to the family and the forum from the east coast.

@Treasure Coast Vault So glad you posted this AC unit. Were you able to use the existing condensate line on the Ollie? A step by step description of your install would be very help for us folks thing of making the same modification. Did you have to modify the existing opening after removing the old AC? Thanks

Two question for the knowledgable group. 1.Do the Lithionic 103 aH batteries ever go on sale and if so where is the best place to purchase them? 2. Does the Xantrex Freedom XC 3000 Pro Inverter and it remote panel ever go on sale and where is the best place to purchase them? Thanks

The 5th Annual Mini-Rally was held at the Shore Hills Campground in Boothbay Maine from June 2 to June 8, 2025. The weather was sunny for 5 days with occasional showers on 2 days. The event included a pot luck supper and door prize raffle, golfing match, cornhole match, presentations by CGI and the local Oliver sales and service center, Tim's RV and a catered lobster bake/barbecue chicken dinner to end the mini-rally. Below is some pictures taken during the event.

Although you need cell phone coverage, I like to use the Waze app on my phone. It will re-route you if there is a accident on your route, it notifies you of vehicles broken down/parked in the shoulder, accidents ahead, debris in the road and if police are on the road. Those items are only noted if someone adds it into the app. On long trips, I use the Garmin 890, which I like a lot but trust the Waze if there is a disagreement. I do not use the GPS in my TV. 2 gps devices are enough for me along with the tire pressure monitoring system for the Ollie tires.

OTT has provided a notice of the mini-rally (beginning on June 2, 2025 in Maine) in the Oliver TT web site under Resources tab and under the Upcoming Events tab. All Oliver Owner's are welcome to attend.

Reading through all the entire posts, it is quite evident that @DanielBoondock has really done a lot of research about which RV fits his needs. (It is what us engineers do). I think, Daniel, that you need to do similiar research on your tow vehicle as the EV's will have a lot less mileage range then advertised when towing the Ollie. You may not have the mileage range you need for your camping adventures. You will find some helpful information on this web site about EV towing an Ollie. I just wanted to draw your attention to this matter.

@Steph and Dud B I found RVLock's people to be very helpful when I was having a different problem with my lock. Let us know what you found necessary to correct the problem.

@2008RN I have a small piece of plexiglass that I keep in the cellar to use to kneel down on when connecting my hoses.

The TOSOT AC is manufactured in China. Hopefully not at the same factory where the OTT springs are made.

Get someone else to wiggle the Post (leg) and try to twist it while you are holding the table top with the post being horizontal. Once free clean it up and put some WD-40 on the post as Bill suggested.

Are there lithium batteries (what brand and Ah capacity) that would fit in the battery tray without modify the tray?

I would suggest as above, to check the tightness of the 4 bolts. Also, try looking at the unit while someone else is operating the jack. If no change, try calling OTT for further advice.

How did you attach it to the Ollie wall?

What are "speed clips"?

@Zodd Could the socket be for the Andersonb WDH chain adjustment nuts? Since you have a 250 TV you probably do not have Anderson WDH. Could it be for the jacks to operate them if there is no battery power? Of course you could always call OTT and ask.

@Wandering Sagebrush Look at it this way. You have now taught all of us OTT owner's to make sure the shower water knobs are completely shut off. Thanks for posting that great lesson.

@Imelda If you decide to replae the btteries yourself, make sure you cover the solar collectors so they are not sending power down to the battery compartment. Also take a picture of the existing battery cable placements so you can hook up new similiar batteries (if you chose) the same way.

@LeeC Did you talk to OTT about signing into the Rewards site? What did they tell you? I think the reason you can not register is because OTT no longer has a rewards point system (with dollars put on a credit card) like they use to. Not sure if still offered, but they used to have a program of paying you if you show show your Ollive to a prospective buyer who than buys a new Oliver. You had to agree to show your OTT by signing up on the web site.

I can winterwize with 2 gallons of Rv anti freeze, but I porbably use less as I have a composting toilet.

@LeeC On the page you show, you have to log in again on this page, which I assume you have done. This is a sepeate log in seperate from the Oliver web page login. I did it and it worked for me, but I already had a Rewards Program account. ( I did it on my computer and not on my phone.) If that does not work, you will probably need to contact OTT for help. Good luck

@LeeC Here is a little simplier direction to get to the area to register in the Reward Program. Start at the OTT opening web page. At the top of the page click on the drop down arrow for the Tab called "Resourses", then click on "Rewards Account". The next page should allow you to register. Hope this helps

I am not answering your question but with Trump cut in National park employees I wounder what effect it will have to us campers wanting ot use National Parks?
