    I’m curious why you want to move it to the door. It seems that small jump in height wouldn’t provide that much more visibility. Your existing camera doesn’t appear to be in the way or prone to kicking when entering/exiting the camper. When I back up a trailer or the boat I often open the back...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Broken Fridge Door Catch - 2021 Isotherm CR130EL

    I'm sure that would be fine, but just in case, this latch is also easily operated with one hand. I sure wish that Isotherm would come up with a solid solution on their end. At least we have options and workarounds for now.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Broken Fridge Door Catch - 2021 Isotherm CR130EL

    I broke mine the 3rd trip out. I installed one of these and I like it better than the cheap, factory latch. I found the factory latch did not close the door tight enough and was letting cold escape. The new childproof latch has been working great for a year now and keeps the fridge closed nice...

    I did not know they offered the hybrid, thanks! I have used the Sun Oven for years, it is awesome. I put a whole chicken in it, point it southwest and come back to a completely epic dinner at the end of the day. I use it to bake and you can also put eggs in the cardboard container with no water...

    Thanks for the reply Craig. All the reviews I have seen say it takes around 1.5 hours to cook most "instant" things if they are not frozen. Add 1/2 hour for frozen foods. The reviews that interested me were the folks who cook a 4-5 hour roast in it while driving. They explain that the battery...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 12 Volt Oven

    I'm considering purchasing a 12v oven from Kickass in Australia. They say is consumes 10.8 amps and 130 watts. I have three other products from this company and the quality and performance have been stellar. I'm thinking of putting it in my off grid cabin that has plenty of solar and battery...

    Beautiful photos and story as always. Never caught a bull trout before, so one more for the bucket list. 15" trout is no small fry, nice work! Thanks for sharing the adventure.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New thermal pack: quilted with lower window covers

    I’m very interested in this. I do a lot of winter camping and am curious to know just how much warmer this option is above the basic one I have. If substantial I could see swapping this one in for the winter and use the original the rest of the year. Love the lower window covers! Hope they offer...

    Modified 12ga and a 45 or the 357 come along every trip. And yes, all registered and all the right paperwork to carry, even CCW. I always follow the laws of each state I travel through. Never had to use them on a bear, but I'm with you, I don't want to be stuck with no way out. The bear topic...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Trashcan Mount

    My thought is that the bear can still smell the contents of the ammo box. I too, am not a big fan of storing things inside the cab. I only do that if the threat is low in the area I'm camping. Just last weekend my daughter was visiting the in laws up in Humbolt. They spent the night in the...

    Fishing pole closed in tailgate or door anyone? Realize you forgot the drain plug for the boat after launching? I guess we all make these types of crazy mistakes at times. In the 80s while attending the Fire academy, I was taught to do the "Golden Circle" before driving away in a rig. I use...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Trashcan Mount

    So even when you have your rig (not down river in a canoe, which sounds dreamy by the way!) you still hang trash/food? I have been evaluating each campsite individually. If it is crawling with activity and I’m the only meal in town, I hang it. In campgrounds there always seems to be other less...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Trashcan Mount

    Got it Craig, thank you. Just wondering because I'm only talking about trash. I would not rely on this to be bear proof by any measure. I just like the fact that WE can't smell the contents when it's closed. Very aware that bears can smell everything. When we camp with bear boxes, that is where...

    Are you suggesting that you store your trash, recycling and if you use them, WAG bags in the bear canister?
