No one has had issues with this but me?

Greetings I finally got around to installing my MaxxFan and, while doing so, noticed one of the screws on the jack plate was backed out a bit. I went around and checked them all and found that every one could be tightened a turn or two with a socket. Given how critical these are, has anyone...

I installed it myself and after adding the IQ4, everything seems to be working fine. Next up, solar.

For the North Rim, there are miles and miles of well maintained dirt roads in the Kaibab National Forest. There are lots of camp locations, many with canyon views. There is a visitor center in Jacob Lake but nothing there opens until about May 1. I have led mountain bike trips up there for...

I did just what you are planning. It sticks out a bit but not enough to be worrisome. http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/9609-awning-installation-on-an-eagle/

Love my National Luna Weekender. Freezer is great and there is plenty of room for 2 people's food and drink. http://www.equipt1.com/item/weekender-52-liter-fridge-freezer-stainless-steel I am trying to figure out how to make it work in my new (to me) Eagle Camper. Cheers

OK. I just mounted mine using the same procedure as CDBROW1 and you show in your video. I tighten the first handle and then tighten the second against that. I'm not Charles Atlas but once they are locked, I cannot move them at all. I tried rotating in both directions and they just do not move...

Thanks everyone. I need to refine my search skills because I did check but did not find anything relevant. :wacko: Last question -- do you run the fan FWC installed to cool the fridge box while driving on hot days or does air flow over the camper keep it cool enough? Cheers and thanks again...

I have not had the opportunity to use the fridge (Dometic 3 way) in my Eagle yet but plan on doing so in the next few weeks. In the past, I have always used a National Luna compressor fridge which I love but have not yet figured out where to put it. Here's where I need some advice. When...

Dr J -- if you go their website they have an order form with all the specs of the various sizes. I simply removed the original locks and followed their instructions -- there are a couple of different measurements needed. All the locks were a little different but the order form made it easy. I...

Many thanks to BWHT4x4 -- I ordered locks from ch751 and product and install was great.

My wife and I drove to Prudhoe Bay last year and I can't tell you the number of people who advised against driving the Cassier -- too remote, bad road, blah, blah. It was absolutely the best part of the trip.

will do. Thanks a lot for making people aware of this. Those containers are not cheap. Cheers

I have the base mounted to an Aluminess box that attaches to a swing arm on my rear bumper. Pretty much everything else is the same as what you showed -- I don't think the basic design has changed. I have no idea why they would be different but I might add a bicycle lock to the handles anyway...

nice clean install. congrats.

Interesting. I just tried to replicate what you did in the video and the top can does not spin at all. I wonder if I have an older/newer version. Thanks for the video.

I have had mine stacked on an Aluminess cook box and driven many, many miles down bad roads and they never move at all. When I first mounted them, I twisted and turned them to make sure they were secure and could not budge them. Adding a bike lock is certainly additional piece of mind. I look...

I have used stacked rotopax cans for years and using their locking handle, there's no easy way to get them off. Believe me, Ive tried.

I live 1 block east of the Mississippi in St.Paul. We bought a lightly used 2012 Eagle and have it sitting on a 2012 Tacoma. We only have a few nights in it but we are planning a trip west in the next month or so. We have travelled much of the country and spent much of last summer driving...

Will do. Jim -- thanks for posting the response from Renology.

Greetings I need to find a safe and secure place to park my Tacoma with Eagle camper near LAX for a few weeks from February 12 through March 7. Anyone here have recommendations? Thanks in advance. Cheers Kevin

Thanks Dr J. I will get the smart charger, Cheers

DrJ As you suggest, I may just use a battery charger to get the last bit. Dumb question, with two batteries, do you just charge them separately? Cheers

IMHO, an 8-12% loss of output is not insignificant. Add shade to any part of the panel and the deficit gets even bigger. I have the yakima tracks and I will build something utilizing those.

This has been a very useful discussion. Not to muddy the water, but I have one question I cannot seem to find an answer to that seems relevant if you are considering solar. Do solar panels need to be installed with a gap beneath them for cooling? I have seen installs that glue the flexible...
