I would say get the arctic pack (or whatever they call it now, thermal pack?) and/or make your own and you could probably pick any color for the fabric PLUS you get some insulation properties too.

Got the patio light wired up to the switch panel using the flood light wires. Just had to tap into the load wire for the flood lights and connect to the load wire for the patio light. Easy once you get all the panels off.

Ok, if you've followed my saga to get my patio light wired into the switch panel on my Flatbed Hawk. At the switch panel there are 2 green/yellow wires labelled flood lights (I don't have flood lights so they aren't being used ; yet). I installed a new switch into the panel and hooked those...

I just had a "brain storm"... since all the wires are already in the fuse box and in the wire box, I can just move the wires for the "flood lights" over to the patio lights and connect the wires in the wiring box for the flood lights to the new switch... no cutting, etc.! The only thing is if...

I got some JR switches for my Flatbed Hawk. Getting them out of the base (2 pack) wasn't easy but I figured it out and installed them into the empty slots. Now... I'm trying to figure out which fuse the patio lights go to. My fuse diagram doesn't match the amp ratings on the diagram and the...

You can't really increase the amount of space unless you really want to do some mods to your camper and the amount of "pad" you can put in there is restricted by the camper (I'm sure you know that). You can put taller push boards and vinyl on the sides to give you more standup height but that's...

Man, I used to go down to San Felipe in the 80ies... so different but still a cool place. South of SF at Puertocitos (sp?) used to be the end of the road and it was a trek just to get there.

We've been going through that same "dilemma" as we moved from an Eagle to a flatbed Hawk too.... now there's too much space and hope we don't fill it up with stuff we never use. :-) I like your drawer idea and might have to see about doing one (albeit my woodworking skills aren't very good)...

I've kind of lost confidence with Dometic too especially after they purchased Fantastic Fans... had terrible customer service and had to "fight" with them about their instructions on the fan install even though their own install guide was posted on their site and they said it was wrong...

Still have it!

I found a rough map of our route but to be honest, every person has a different idea of what a good trip is so this may be useless for you. I'm not even sure of its accuracy but it's close. I think we had a garmin mini running so friends could follow us (many were worried) and I think I pulled...

Rob, We had quite a few books and I'll have to find them as they are here somewhere since we're planning a baja trip early next year. We stayed at a few "campgrounds" when our 4-5 hr max driving was approaching. We did use iOverlander too. We had a dog, no issues. Had all the documents and...

We did a 2 month trip a few years back and it was great. We went down the West Coast, down past Mexico City to see the monarch butterfly migration, then back up through the central part and then diverted back to the coast about halfway up. So many great areas, people, etc. We used our FWC the...

Anyone interested in a brand new US AGM battery? Replaced it with a LifePO4 battery and I don't need this.... It's heavy (50lbs) so local pickup is probably better but if you want me to ship it and we can figure out the cost, I'm ok with that.... See US AGM 24 | Deep Cycle AGM Battery |...

Using a DC to DC charger on my lifepo4 so don't need this. Brand new. Shipping included. $50 See this link for more info: BatteryLink™ Automatic Charging Relay - 12V/24V DC 120A - Blue Sea Systems

A few things to consider. If you are going to have the push panels replaced, you might consider replacing the vinyl at the same time. That's what I did and since they had to take the roof off to do the vinyl, it was easy to do the push panels at the same time. Now, if your vinyl is in good...

They did mine years ago... quality and quick turn around.

I'm pretty sure they figured this out quite some time ago (especially since there are signs out there explaining it) but still a good video.

We've stopped in there before. Just like (about) any other costco you've ever been in.... no issues, no hassles, etc.

That is a unique setup for sure.... I don't have any suggestions but since I've not seen or heard of this happening before, something is amiss for sure. Good luck.

I went LifePO4 quite a while ago. Built my own battery pack...

I thought about that too but the cord under normal circumstances is long anyway to allow the panels to move around. Really just a trickle charger.

I did determine that the plug in the rear of the flatbed does in fact go to the wire in the battery compartment. My portable solar panel does have a lifepo4 controller so I'm just going to wire the battery up and then use that port in the flatbed when I need to charge my battery on long trips.

I'm going to go out and check but thought I'd see if anyone has done this... There's a solar connection (or some type of connection) on the outside of my Hawk Flatbed that I assume goes to the battery compartment (there's some coiled-up wires in there that aren't hooked to anything). I...

I had this concern too on my install and on my truck (RAM 1500) found out that the bed rail actually had a curve to it so it appeared the camper was curved but it wasn't. As other people stated, you could resolve the issue w/ some wood spacers.
