I second the partially open valve. We did that once too!

One more moab pic. Kane Creek Road. Last full moon.

Our fuse is under the street side bed by the inverter. It is a small black inline fuse holder.

As an aside, I think on a super duty, if adaptive cruise and engine brake are both engaged, the adaptive cruise will apply TV brakes in addition to engine braking. I usually don’t use adaptive cruise on big declines for this reason. I want to have a better idea of how much the TV brakes are applied. Any thoughts?

I have found that the built in battery heaters in my lithionic batteries will also a cause a difference between SOC readings on my Victron Shunt and my Lithionics app. Power use for the internal battery heaters does not register on the Victron. Not sure if it has been cold enough at your location to trigger the heaters.

I recently updated my firmware on my xantrex 3000 because I was have issues with frequent error 20 messages. One thing I found interesting is that the xantrex instructions do not recommend updating firmware unless you are having issues. I used instructions from both the Oliver knowledge base and the xantrex page to download all three firmwares and update.

In our experience ethanol fumes whether spilled near the sensor or dissipated by respiration after a few drinks is enough to trigger the CO alarm if the trailer is closed up. I’m sure the ethanol in the antifreeze would also be enough to trigger the alarm.

Thanks so much for the heads up. Looks like a great winter project for my list.

In my opinion, if you are going to frequently be running ac wo shore power , the best solution would be a Generator like the Honda EU 2200 and a Truma installed soft start on your ac unit. The eu2200 is at my limit of lifting comfort. I run mine on gas, but propane would likely work as well. I don’t have a soft start on my Truma yet, but it seems like a reasonably priced option as long as the mobile tech cost to install it is not too prohibitive. I have been holding off on the soft start hoping a DIY option becomes available in the future.

We had a similar but less severe issue. When I look closely at your picture, I notice a small crack in the metal trim around the microwave in the corner. We developed similar cracks in all four corners after a trip to Fruita on I70 from Louisville. We were still under warranty and Oliver sent us a new trim piece along with some metal perforated hanger strap. They recommended that I attach a piece of the strap to a preexisting screw on the back of the microwave and then to the platform the microwave is on. While I was working on the micro/convection oven, I noticed that the center of the metal foot it stands on had partially collapsed in the center. I reinforced this with some screws and lock washers that reinforce this area. We haven’t had an issue since however I did tighten up the hanger tape and and move the lower end of the longest piece to its own attachment site to the left since this picture was taken. The First three images have the microwave on its side. The last two were take through the vent on the outside of the trailer above the fridge and below the microwave/convection oven. One other thought, I was unsure how hot the outside of the oven gets when using convection and therefore tried to steer clear of blocking airflow or putting anything combustible close the oven. Hope this helps.

I think I have finally banished the error 20 code from my Xantrex remote. In the past I thought it was from poor quality shore power and I thought I had updated the firmware but I again got an error 20 code on my xantrex remote. I was wrong on both counts. I finally went all in, and updated the firmware on the inverter/charger, the remote and the communications firmware. I didn’t get an error 20 code on my most recent trip. In case it helps, I downloaded the firmware on a PC not an apple. My previous attempts with downloading the firmware to an apple did not successfully update the firmware. I also downloaded and updated each of the three firmwares to the usb drive separately, deleting each one after each was installed. Attempting to download and install all of them together didn’t work for me. To answer your question above, I have never decreased the charge current directly, but have decreased the breaker rating from 25 to 20 or 15 amps depending on my shore power source. This indirectly lowers the charge current.

If fly fishing is your thing, the green above the dam is amazing trout water, browns, rainbows and cuts. I usually drive to little hole and walk upstream or park below the dam and walk down stream. More cuts closer to the dam. Plenty of long parking spots at both since there is a boat ramp at both sites. Dripping springs is a fun little campground but I don’t know if they have water or a dump station.

Our F250 gets 13-14 mph while towing our LE2. Mileage is very speed dependent.

I have an LE2 with the Truma aventa air and my Honda eu 2200 will not run the air conditioner. When the compressor starts the Honda overload breaker trips. There is now a soft starter option for the Truma, but as for now can only be installed by a Teuma tech service facility. I was quoted $425+tax+mobile fees. I haven’t had the soft start installed yet. I was holding off for now to see if a DIY installation eventually becomes an option.

The basket and the bins looks great. What are the weight limits of the basket?
