    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Iota float for long-term shore power

    I picked up the 2017 Grandby from the shipper and in my user manual it says I have an Iota DSL-30 IQ4. I could not locate the controller itself, which would make me feel better. Do I have to disassemble cabinetry in order to lay eyes on it as BWHT4x4 did? Also, in my own research I see that...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Iota float for long-term shore power

    Hello, I have a 2017 Grandby that was wired for solar. It's on a barge headed to Seattle right now so I don't have the exact model of Iota controller in front of me. Last year I had two AGM batteries put in to replace the ones that shipped with the camper and the battery installers said not to...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Grape solar 100W on 2017 Grandby

    Sorry, I found part of my answer on a post-posting search result. (I *did* search before I posted). https://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/19705-solar-noob-q-costco-coleman-100w-panel-integration/ I’m going to get the folding panel suggested in that post instead of the Grape. I still have...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Grape solar 100W on 2017 Grandby

    I’m in a rush and am considering buying a Grape solar flex panel. https://grapesolar.com/docs/GS-FLEX-100W-SP.pdf. My 2017 Grandby is wired for solar, including a controller, and has a plug for an external portable panel. My question: Can I just plug the Grape panel in and it will work? If...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Is slight misalignment of camper a reason to reload?

    LOL, who knew the 4wc tribe had OCD in its DNA? I guess I should have but I just wasn't thinking. Because I was out measuring the misalignment every 5 minutes. So I'm going to fix it. Thanks for all the tips about how to do it.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Is slight misalignment of camper a reason to reload?

    After loading my Grandby for the first time (myself) on my Tundra yesterday, I found that the Grandby is slightly out of alignment with the truck bed, about an inch of skew when measured from the rear of the camper. The camper is not rubbing or hitting on the truck anywhere, so I'm wondering...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West How to repair a rock ping?

    Thanks to everyone for the tips. I patched it using the material in the photo two weeks and 900 miles ago and it seems to be holding up well. It's kind of spongy, even after it's cured, so it probably won't expand and contract as temperatures change. It does the job I wanted it to: keeping the...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West How to repair a rock ping?

    Hello, On the trip back up to Alaska from Sacramento with our new Grandby we picked up a rock ping, see photo. It almost but doesn't quite reach the level of a total breach of the covering. I'm going to get one of those protective films put on soon, but before I do that, what's the best way to...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Good article on New Owners of FWC

    I'm hoping they will be released in time for them to be factory installed when I take delivery in June. I don't remember the brand or the specs but they do require a new controller. Solar is a fast-moving stream, and improves constantly, so just about no matter when you buy you'll be out of date...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Good article on New Owners of FWC

    We visited the 4WC factory last weekend. The new CEO answered the door early Saturday morning and showed us around while the salesman was busy. He struck me as sincere about maintaining quality while improving operations. The Saturday crew on the factory floor was very comfortable with him. He...
