    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Used Camper Alert Thread

    Hello, please forgive me if I am posting this in the wrong place. For Sale is a Four Wheel Camper – Eagle model. I don’t know the year, but I would guess 1999 or 2000. I purchased it in great condition in 2006, and it is even better condition now. I’d really love to keep this but my family is...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Wiring in 1990s Eagle

    Sorry if this has been discussed before, it's been a few years since I signed on to this forum. I am beefing up my 1990s (?) Eagle with a second 80watt panel, digital display charge controller, and Xantrex battery monitor. I'd like these in plain site rather than under the couch (where the...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Aluminum siding repair

    Thanks Yeah, last time I loan out the camper. At least they cleaned it up real nice. Seemed to hold its own at BM, even through the 12 hour dust storm and 24/7 drug fueled raves. By the way, can you find my camper in this pic?

    Reply to EdoHart I didn't start the engine the entire time. However, I did notice that when my solar setup was connected to my regular automotive battery and alternator, my deep cycle battery was being drained by something. After I disconnected it, however, I had no problems. I havne't sat down...

    panel I have an 80 watt panel on my Eagle. I used it last summer for a month while camped in the Sierras.

    I'd like to build a wind screen/awning off of the back of my Eagle, using 3/4" pipe and some sort of tarp or canvas. Anyone have any experience with this? Someone once sent me a picture of their windscreen, but I can't remember who it was and can't tell from the picture what type of materials...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Ice Box

    Hi all, I have a 3-way fridge in my Eagle. However, I'd like to swap it out for an ice box, primarily because of the relative ease of obtaining ice compared to refilling my propane in rural Mexico. Does anyone know the dimensions of the ice box, and how easy/difficult it is to switch the two...

    mounting panels Hi Brian, I recently bought a used Eagle that had an old, 10-watt panel mounted on the roof. I replaced it with a ginormous 80-watt monster. Mounting it was easy. I simply used the bolts that keep the roof metal in place to secure the panel mounts. As for the wiring, I hooked...

    satellite Looks like a fun project. What kind of satellite dish did you find for the Eagle? I am actually interested in being internet-capable way out in the middle of nowhere. Have you come across any satellite internet equipment suitable for the Eagle? Thanks

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Solar Power

    solar panels I put an 80-watt panel on my Eagle. It's big, about 4x2 feet. It charges my auxiliary battery so that I can use a stereo, fan, coffee maker, DVD player and lights. Your refridgerator will eat up about 160 watts/day, and an 80-watt panel will give you only about 55 watts/day. So, in...

    solar The campers are already wired for most if not all accessories. I bought a used Eagle with a little 10 watt panel, but installed my own 80 watt monster. It provides more than enough juice to power my laptop, coffee maker, powervent, dvd player, and more. I recommend going aftermarket, I...

    Hi, new to the forum, very happy to find out about it. I recently spent 4 weeks in the High Sierras of California, living out of my Eagle camper. Mosquitoes can be very bad up there, especially in July, so I bought a 10x10 canopy and duct-taped it to the rear of the camper. This worked fairly...
