Against The Wind

Hello friends, have a situation that calls for your expert advice and knowledge. While camping at Stone Mountain Park near Atlanta this past week, we developed a drip from Truma a/c inside the cabin that we found disturbing. A slow drip from the knob that adjusts the front to rear airflow ( probably the low point) plagued us the last 3-4 days of our trip. Now, Atlanta in July is not the most hospitable place on the map with temps in the upper 90’s and humidity way above normal human levels, but after having factory service earlier this Spring, we figured all would be well. We were near level in our camping spot and very shady however,I did not see a lot of condensation dripping from our condensate hoses at the rear corners of the camper. I did notice some condensation running down the back of the camper so, does this point to a clogged drain hose? Is this something I can fix maybe by blowing air up the drain hose? Should I seek factory help? Should I stay outa Georgia in July? As always your knowledge and response is most coveted Thanks in advance.

Thank you, friends for your inventive and informative responses. I can always depend on the Oliver community for THE BEST HELP! Happy Travels!

Hello Friends, We got a Tire Minder i10 TPMS for Christmas and after reading over the installation instructions, I feel they have catered to our neighbors who have a battery outside their rig instead of like ours where the batteries are enclosed. I’m looking for some technical advice as to where I can access a reliable power source to power my TPMS. As always, your good advice is always coveted.

Thanks so much, John. One more question, our trailer has the Optifuse resettable breaker located by the xantrax main shut off? Picture included. Is this the circuit breaker & does it need to be turned off? Thanks again for all your help.

Hello friends. We’re putting Olly up for a while and are looking for the proper shut down sequence for our batteries. The way we see it now is shut off shore power, shut off solar (red switch in cabinet street side), wait until batteries achieve 50-80% SOC, shut off inverter(red switch street side sub access compartment), shut off batteries (blue lighted button switches on batteries). Does this sound like the correct sequence of events or no? When we restart in the Spring, just reverse order. As always, your response is most appreciated. 😊 Thanks

As always, the Oliver family is so helpful to new, rookie Olly owners! Thanks so much for your advice and wisdom. 😃

Hi friends. Winter’s coming and as a new Oliver owner, I’d like to ask about my batteries. We have the lithium platinum package (640ah) and as expensive as they are want to be sure we take good care of them while Ollys off the road for a while. Living in southeast Tennessee, we can experience temps in the teens for short periods so, should I remove my batteries and store them in a nice dry basement or leave them hooked up to shore power and let the battery management system control them? We will be storing Olly under a Calmark cover in our driveway and have access to 30 amp shore power. As always, your advice is most welcome.

Well, thanks Bill. That sheds a little light on the situation. Perhaps in the near future, then.

Hello friends. Just wondering if anything ever happened with Oliver branded merchandise. As a new OE2 owner, I would be proud to wear a cap, vest, shirt etc. So, Oliver, what’s up?

Thanks for all the timely responses, friends. Your suggestions will be closely regarded when the time comes for this upgrade.

Hi friends. Thinking of adding a TPMS to our Olly sometime in the near future. Would like your valuable opinions on what to look at and what to stay away from. Yes, mention brand names, please. 😁

And to my other friends for their input. Everyone is so helpful 😁

Thanks Patriot for your input and guidance with posting my signature information. 😃

Hello friends, once again it’s hull 1452 asking your advice about Calmark covers for our Olly. After reading several posts about Calmark, we decided to invest in the best (buy once, cry once…) but have a question about having access to our Lithionics batteries in the off season. Calmark can custom make your covers with more access points than the entry door if needed, for additional cost.Our question is: will we need access to the Platinum batteries in the off season? I haven’t figured out all the ins and outs of adding our trailer/tow vehicle info yet, so bear with me, please😉

Hello friends, just recently assumed ownership of hull 1452 and was looking for a good cover to store it under when off the road. We like the Calmark covers best but would be open minded to others. Anyone out there got one for sale?😃
