    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Additional Solar Panel.

    Is the Zamp MTTP? If it is you can wire in series and you are good to go. If not you will need two MC4 branch connectors.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Parallel to Series on roof top panels

    Not sure about the shading issue. I did the series to get max benefit from the MTTP controller, also you do get less loss in the FWC wiring from the roof to the controller. I still have my portable 120w solar in a bag folding panel. I have rewired the plugs on the sides of the camper to go to...

    I would take out all the particle board. Will smell even if you get it dried out. Also heavy compared to plywood.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Grandby model; How do I access faucet to replace ?

    I did my own inside build. Not much room with the sink installed. Only a few clips holding the sink. Take the sink out and you have lots of room. EDIT found the picture I was looking for:

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Bed support splitting

    I am not a woodworker, I am sure a good woodworker would just replace the board. I like metal. Would open and glue the crack. Find an aluminum channel that would slip over the top of the crack and drill and put screws or long rivets to hold it in place. If you can not find a channel that fits HD...

    PEX clamp. EDIT. if that is a ridged connector you will need very hot water to soften the pex or you will need to cut it off. Working with Pex

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Parallel to Series on roof top panels

    Rewired the loads to go through the Victron Smartsolar MTTP 100/20. Screenshots below show the LED lights, the heater, and the DC Fridge. A lot of information on the APP. I did have a 0.1 amp draw when I thought I had everything off. Took a minute to realize the draw was the Propane detector...

    Added a Victron MTTP SmartSolar 100/20 solar controller. Rewired from parallel to series today to take advantage of the higher voltage. Before and after pictures.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 2018 Four Wheel Camper Announcements (article in Truck Camper Magazine)

    FWC has not used sliding doors for some time. The first hinged doors went up and then down as mine in the picture below. Agree the bins are not good storage.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Shopping for Truck Campers

    I strongly disagree with removing a gray water tank from your criteria. You can add it yourself later, several ways to do it just do a search. Yes, the collapsible jugs work. I just enjoy stopping somewhere for lunch and being able to wash up without having to hook a hose up. We do not use a...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 2018 Four Wheel Camper Announcements (article in Truck Camper Magazine)

    Was not sure what you were talking about so I looked. My 2013 Hawk has a hinged open-down door. Looked on the website and saw a bin and not a cabinet. Is this the new normal?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Gray Tank in a FWC Hawk

    Several different ways to mount one. I have had a 4" ABS pipe tank on my truck for years. Used on my 2002 Hawk and now on my 2013 Hawk. This tank was for the 2002 Hawk and has been remade for my 2013 Hawk. I put the sink discharge to the front of the camper.

    It is so light the front wheels don't touch the ground. Really buy a Pickup tent if you want a camper like that.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Propane problem "pressure"

    Got the new regulator installed. Everything working like new. I made a video of the pressure of the new regulator and the inside of the old regulator showing the oil inside. If you have any idea where the oil was from let me know. I cleaned the hose to the camper before putting everything back...

    Russ, I did what you recommend several times at the Rally. I was aware of the check valve in the tank and have always opened the valve slowly.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Propane problem "pressure"

    At the FWC rally, I had my first mechanical problem. Our heater would Not light, and I could only get a small flame on the cooktop. I thought the tank might be empty and switched tanks. No help tapped on the regulator and got a small increase in the flame on the cooktop, enough to make coffee...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 2018 Four Wheel Campers 6th Annual Nor Cal Rally - April 20th-22nd - "Review"

    Have to disagree. Liked Sugarloaf a lot more, but I am not a horse person. Campers were to spread out to do a walk around, something I really enjoyed. Friday's WIND made eating in the barn a requirement with only tables for 1/2 the people there.

    How come there's 2 doors on a chicken coupe? Because if it had 4 doors, it would be a sedan.
