MAX Burner

On the rear of our Dometic toilet - where the water connection is, there's an integrated washer/screen at the fitting (where the arrow is pointing below). This screen can get clogged and reduce the flow/pressure to the toilet. The same goes with most faucets. You can remove the screen at the faucet where the water comes out - clear it of debris, and your flow is usually restored.

Still looks big @John Welte...

We had a similar issue with both our toilet (low flow) and the bathroom sink faucet (very low flow) last year. After clearing out each of the diffuser screens - the flow rate came back up to the same level as the kitchen sink. It appeared that there was an accumulation of calcification particles in the screens. Try removing the diffuser from the faucet and examining the screen to remove any debris. Easy fix, for us at least...

HA! It hasn't changed much - they actually sell rattle cans at the CR for like 10 bucks now!

We've followed John's recommendation for our Tundra - a game changer...

Yes, we used a countersink bit... The bezel hangs about an 1" from the overhead: Hope this helps out...

Looks like one of our AS is in that pic! HA! Kinda like Cadillac Ranch near Amarillo....

@theOrca: Great summary, brother! Nicely done - very satisfying, right? BRAVO ZULU!

Keep going south - great time of year for visiting the Keys!

Nope. Marked the holes with a sharpie, then hit the marks with a "spring punch" (this forms a small indent in the gelcoat which keeps the drill bit from walking off target), then drill. No biggie. Post your efforts to share your experience... Have fun with it!

Minimal current draw - we’ve had ours since last May. Great control for the Dometic A/C and furnace units…. We love ours!

We used the same one that @topgun2 refers to: The "O-ring" keeps paper goods nice and dry inside when the wet-head is being used as a shower... Here's a pic of our install/mod: Cheers!

@jd1923 brings up a good point regarding the future of the portable GENSET and RV life. IMO, it will remain a key item on some RV'er's pack-up checklist - it will not on others, as camping style will dictate its place in the future. The more rigs configured with high-capacity lithium battery banks and large solar module arrays the less (if at all) a GENSET will be needed. Our Honda 12+ year old EU2000 hasn't seen the light of day on a camping trip since we've owned our OTT - as our Oliver's configuration supports our boon docking needs. We're still packing it, but it has become a tertiary-level backup item. Other owners, w/o large solar and battery AH storage capabilities, use and rely on their GENSET for their style of camping because it's used to recharge their batteries - all good! Others don't need a GENSET because they choose the RV Park camping style - still ALL GOOD! So, the GENSET may still have a place in the future of RV'ing but perhaps in a different way it did say, 10 or 15 years ago. Regarding the cute GENSET "tent" - save your money, IMO. Most modern generators are happy providing needed AC power in most weather conditions. We've had our's running famously in rain, sleet, and snowy conditions. In the later, its important to keep the air intake area cleared of accumulated snow - but otherwise, never experienced a problem. Cheers!

We've seen many of those signs over the years - just hope you were able to stop at Pie Town (first pic) for some of their delicious fruit pastries! YUM!!!

THAT's what I'm talking about - definitely prefer the twin-.50CAL option!!!

Can't agree more with Bill's comment above. @jd1923 - John, suggest reaching out to Colin/CGI at 615.900.0648. He shared his oxidation removal process with me when we "peeled" off the Oliver nose graphic... Being previous vintage AS owners we had all the same polishing tools CGI uses, but didn't have the wool buffer heads and compound they prefer. So, we've effectively converted the AS polishing kit into one for the OTT... Very helpful young men at CGI - worth the time to chat with them, IMO. Good luck, brother!

Concur, 100%! Although it could use a B-17 Flying Fortress navigator's plexiglas observation bubble instead of the bathroom fan for us tall dudes.... just say'n

Same here!

Especially the last one! Framable, that one! Thanks for sharing... Cheers!

@Galway Girl - Nice looking sneakers! Peace of mind is a precious feeling with running gear....IMO.

@Boudicca908 - just curious, what's your HAM call-sign. We're usually monitoring 146.520MHz on the road, FYI. 73's OM!

Roger, that. Every rig likely doesn't have the exact same number of chain links. 7 to 8 threads, for us, applies just enough of a "squeeze" on the red bushing to keep the nuts from backing-off while towing. We definitely check the nut tightness at our first stop - I've found them to loosen sometimes.

It's interesting that this condition made it through all the Quality Control checks performed during the build process. OTT may need to validate employee training associated with the BD install process, review their QC checklists, and at least brief employees regarding @rideadeuce's bullet-dodging experience. 100% concur w/@Rivernerd's assessment - there's certainly a reimbursement on the radar screen for repair costs, IMO.

We used to carry a big wooden mallet to get the whale tail to behave - now, we've transitioned to simply back-off both nuts to the end of the threads, which lengthens the chains to the MAX, easily connect and pin the whale tail, then tighten the nuts with a dedicated ratchet & Anderson socket enough to expose 7 - 8 threads on both sides. Less of a PITA and NO more mallet!

We've been using the "Travel Berkey" for over 10 years or so now... Fits nicely under the flatscreen and travels in its custom bag under the forward dinette seat: We can easily re-fill our drinking cups when thirsty at night without getting out of the rack.... Works for us at least.
