The dehumidify function is only available on the remote. Slide the slider down and press the raindrop button. Make sure the “command” is registered with the AC unit, a blue led light on the street side of the AC should light up…I think twice. The dehumidify function works very well for us.

The Touareg diesel is actually a very capable tow VH, and very underrated by folks who have never owned one or towed with one. I do agree with you 100% about cargo weight, that is definitely the limiting factor for us. For full timing we can probably also say the Ollie is too small, it’s all about making compromises, definitely downsizing and keeping an eye on the cargo capacity.

We also have a 2016 VW Touareg diesel, one of the best VHs we’ve ever owned and it’s a wonderful very capable tow vehicle. We towed a 2016 AS 26U with twin beds for almost 3 years, it towed like a champ (and stopping), only issue is cargo capacity, at 1180lb you have to watch what you pack. We now own a 2023 LEII and fully packed weighs approx. 6000lb with a tongue weight of 610lb. No issues so towing it or stopping. Fuel consumption towing our Ollie from Hohenwald to Guelph ON (Canada) was just shy of 16mpg. The Touareg is a great towing vehicle AND daily driver. Again, the limiting factor is payload/cargo capacity.

Update...…I reached out to Avi, owner of Trailersphere (maker of the Barker jack cover) about the issue of me not being able to order the cover from Canada. He said it could be because it's being shipped directly from him and not Amazon warehouse, and that he would send some inventory to them that will allow purchase from Amazon. That was on Monday, so yesterday I was able to place my order! 😁

@topgun2 I know it’s been a few years since this post, but do you maybe have a link for this mod? I searched the forum but no luck! I also want to blacken out the MaxxAir Fan cover.

Yes very odd, maybe because I'm in Canada!

This thread should help!

I don't know what to say, immediately after getting the email I checked Amazon and it showed "Currently unavailable"

Yah I got the same email but it still shows “Currently unavailable” on Amazon

Yup same here!😞

Haha very true and I feel your pain, I have to sleep with earbuds because of “a” loud snorer…..and it’s not me!😜

Unfortunately you're correct!

Same here! 👍🏻

How did you measure the V at the battery....the BMV shunt? ***Disregard, sorry didn't see @mossemi already posted same question.

Thanks, do you know the location of this new bus bar? As far as I know, there is the positive bus bar under the driver side bed, and the negative bus bar upfront under the rear dinette seat.

@Brian and Brandelyne Brian, did you leave the charge controller “low temperature cut-off” at the default of 41°F (5°C) or did you change it?

You’re a star….thanks!😊

@mountainoliver @NCeagle I absolutely love what you guys did here and want to do same, however, I cannot find this shower faucet mixer/diverter anywhere! Where did you buy it?

To me looks like Brian wired it only to one battery?

Brian, sorry another question about how you wired the smart sense to the batteries. I see you have the positive and negative wires connected to one of the batteries, not to both batteries, ie negative to one battery and positive to the other battery like your leads, will that make a difference?

Mine the positive is fused then connected to the positive busbar under the street side bed, and the negative wire to the negative busbar under the rear dinette seat.

Dave what mud flaps did you get, can you post some pics please?

Ah ok that makes sense, thanks!

Very nice! I'm just wondering about connecting the negative wire of the smart sense directly to the Lithionics battery terminal negative. I know the smart sense is probably drawing very low current, but I was under the impression all negative wires should be connected downstream of the shunt?

Brian, did you have to buy any additional hardware?
