What is the optimum summer tire pressure for an E-2 with cooper tires? I’ve been maintaining 80 cold

Can anyone recommend a reliable tire inflator? Looked at Amazon and they all seem like garbage, too many negative comments.

My standard issue hot water tank pressure relief valve leaks, only one year old. Can this be replaced with a standard pressure relief valve from the hardware store or is it special RV issue?
thank you

New to Oliver (828), I noticed that there is a continuous draw on the batteries (lithium), about 10% drop overnight when practically nothing was on. What I learned, is the Zantrex draws on itself when left on, it when turned off, there is almost no draw. So, when 120 is not needed, turn off the inverter!

I’ve noticed the fan cycles more in hot weather. Seems normal.
What bothers me, when plugged in and charging, is the loud relay switch changing on and off every fifteen seconds. Raises havoc with the fridge that changes from AC to propane every fifteen seconds.
IS THIS NORMAL BEHAVIOR?UPDATE!
what I learned, while plugging into the campground, the AC source was extremely unstable. We were at the end of the line and when others pulled current, our ACdropped up and down from 120 significantly and the Xantrex cycled on and off between shore power and propane (for the fridge) to compensate for the unstable power.
problem solved. Thanks all for the input.

Thank you for the info.

Will the Honda 2200i generator be sufficient to charge the three lithium batteries? My 2,000 watt Preditor overload light comes on when charging the lithium batteries.

Thanks, I have the ground plug now and all is working fine. Only problem, my 2,000 watt Preditor (1,60p watt running) generator overload light is on when charging the lithium battery. Everything is unplugged.

Sea dog, the lip. About 1.5” or so, seems to be plenty enough to keep the oven in place. Love the Breville, have the same unit at home.

I receive an error code 9 when plugged into my preditor 2000 15 amp generator. Does not appear to be charging batteries. Any ideas would be welcome.
Xantrex ap reads as attached.

Had a stainless steel box insert made for the oven and used the supplied frame from the original equipment.

I had a factory tour and took precise measurements of the rough opening in Hope of installing the larger Breville. The rough opening before and after the convection oven is inserted is: 21l” wide, 15” tall, 17” deep.
Hope this helps.
Below is the finished project. GREAT oven and very versatile, if you done need a microwave!

I had an annoying buzz. Removed the speaker and found a1” piece of speaker wire covering on the cone that was creating the problem vibration buzz.

I have noticed a fair amount of flex and movement while set up, when moving around in the Oliver. Rear stabilizers are down, tires not lifted off the ground, but the frame is lifted about 6 inches. The front flexes more than the rear, but both front and rear flex is fairly significant.
is this normal?

We got the door/cabinet option from the factory and use the smallest Breville toaster oven in there, which *almost* fits. We definitely have gotten more use out of the oven than we would have the microwave. I don't know how your microwave was wired, but ours just has a 120 in the cabinet above and a hole to run a cord through. I can measure the exact size of the door Oliver installs if you want.
When you get the option from them, they build a cabinet inside that isn't much larger than the door. In fact, it's smaller than they told us it would be which means we got stuck with a larger oven than will fit. In fact, if someone is considering the factory option, know that I was actually given one set of dimensions early on, which was different from what's listed on the measurement pdf, which was different from what I overheard Heather telling a customer on the phone while I was picking up our trailer, which was different from what was actually in our trailer. So good luck, buyers!

I will be towing with a 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport. Has anyone towed with a similar and experienced any issues, or have recommendations? My model does not have the factory installed complete tow package. Just the factory installed tow bar.

Has anyone found a suitable screen house similar to the r-dome attached to the r-pod (pics)? This creates an outdoor living space with protection from rain and bugs, or can be totally opened. Great for eating, storage and cooking.

What do others use to help assure the water they use, either from the onboard tank or direct, both from the faucet at an RV park, is potable? In addition to the inline filter, we are considering a Britta counter pitcher, or something similar. Just don’t want to use a bunch of disposable bottles.

Here is what I did on the rpod. Hope to do the same on the Ollie.

Here is what we are considering. Waiting to see if it actually works. It’s a Thule.

Thank you all. We live in Maine and our camping style is ‘nesting’. Stay in one spot for several days, get to know and explore the area, then move on. We have been in windy conditions on the Maine coast and it’s batten down the hatches, but it’s all part of the program! The enclosure lets us be almost outside in the rain, shields us from the mosquitoes, and offers a little warmth when its chilly since 95% of our cooking in NOT in the trailer.
-
Has anyone added an enclosed living space attached to their Oliver? This would more than double the living space. We would like to add something like the Thule awning that includes screens, storm panels, and access doors. We had something similar on our Rpod, a d actually spent more time in the screen house/awning than inside. We moved the eating area, cook stove, Counter prep, storage etc. into the added room.

I’m hoping Oliver offers a larger dinette table option by spring.
