This guy knows his stuff. His name is Scott. https://bosswatt.com/

I have a 2011 Toyota Tundra with the six-foot bed and I've been running it with a Grandby for eight years with no problem. All I've added are air bags.

Thanks everyone. I’m heading home to San Diego so I will charge the batteries there and see what’s up.

Do you know if the solar will eventually fully charge the batteries or will I need to charge them with a battery charger?

Everything electrical in the camper works fine, except when I turn on the water pump and then the lights dim/go out. I have a battery monitor in the camper. (I saw it on this forum quite a few years ago and installed one.) It's reading 10.9 right now which is the lowest it has read in years.

I have two batteries and they are both brand new. The low temperature on this 10-day trip has only been down to 45 degrees. The water pump still works. I have an 85-watt solar panel that charges the batteries. Since I’m out I won’t be able to do much to the batteries until I return home mid...

I accidentally left my water pump on for a few hours (with no water running). Now, when I turn it on and run water it draws down my power from around 11.4 to under 9. Any suggestions on how I can fix the situation?

Anyone have a used Thermal Pack for a Grandby out there that they would like to sell?

What deep cycle batteries are you using in the new campers?

I blew out a tire recently (and I was only going 10-12 mph) on a dirt/loose rock road. I believe a pointed rock struck the tire's sidewall and the tire blew. I was running full inflate and was told that when driving on dirt/rocky roads I should deflate my tires. What would be a good psi to be...

Since the camper blocks a truck's upper rear brake light, has anyone installed a brake light, say up above the camper door, to act as a third brake light?

Nice work Dan! :D TeleMark is asking about the Stereo, if anything was necessary to hold up the back inside the cabinet? There's a support cage that came with the stereo.

He would be referring to the stereo you installed. How is it supported? There's a support cage that comes with the stereo.

How do you support the back of the headunit? Pic would be really helpful. Thanks. What "headunit" are you talking about?

Hello all: I've gotten such great advice here on the forum I figured it's time to give back. Here are photos of how I've customized my 2005 Grandby that I purchased used three years ago. Dan This is a shoe rack with one of my two trash cans (that I bought at the Container Store). This trash...

I have installed the new battery and out in the sun it charges up to 14 volts. I've been running fans, etc. in the camper and the battery seems to be holding its charge. Thanks everyone for all of your help.

It's a marine battery from Sears, they're top-of-the line. I never depleted the battery because it's hooked up to my solar panel which is "on" all of the time. (I live in San Diego with lots of sun.)

I have a built-in meter. Well, I took the battery to Sears and they tested it. As soon as they put a load on the batter it went from 13 to 6 volts. So I have a brand new free battery. I'm wondering if the battery was a bad apple or if something in my charging system made the battery go bad. I...

Cool! I'll take it out and head on over to Sears where I bought it. Thanks.

Yes, volts. (I don't know much about electricity.) Yes, it stays down around 9.5-10.

Hello all: I wonder if the following has happened to anyone else. For some reason my battery charge drops from around 13 amps to 9-10 amps immediately after I use something in the camper, say the water pump or one of the fans, for a couple of minutes. The battery is around a year old, but...

Hello: Anyone out there know of any good dry camping spots in the Sequoia/Kings Canyon area? Dan

Thanks Stan and everyone else. I'm only a couple of days from San Diego, so I'm going to delve into the problem when I return home. I'll let you know what I find out. Dan

Well, I've cleaned the burner slots (they were pretty clear to begin with) and I still can't get the frig to light. Any other suggestions?
