I have the same fridge and you might have the same problem I had when I first installed it. No vent in the rear of the fridge. I think it was around 2011-2012 FWC didn't vent the fridges and all the heat gets trapped into the cabinet and its a loosing battle. Soon as I got the proper venting...
They work great, but if you use lithium battery's for the sensors inside the last much longer. Also, mine feel off the fridge and the magnets popped off and required super glue to get the magnets put back on. Same thing happened to my brothers set. But over all very nice to have.
Hi brie, welcome aboard. Sounds like something is draining your battery to the point that it can't be recharged. It all depends on the year of camper
You have and what system you have wired in your camper. You can search the forum for trimetic 2030 rv battery monitor. It's basicly a fuel gauge...
I was going though some of may paper work for my camper and came across the pricing sheet for my 1997 grandby. Thought you might like see how much a camper cost 20 years ago. This was pretty close when my fully loaded f250 4wd truck- sticker at the dealer as 15k. If the same pricing increase...
I used this company and have been very happy with the results. I used their website and with in 2 weeks it was at my door. Total for foam for my grandby with 6 inches for three cushions was 272.00 with shipping. Made a huge difference and now I sleep on the longer and more comfortable bed and...
I liked the safety jack but sure seemed a lot more then I wanted to pay. So I found this. Works really well.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ULZGFU/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

With out knowing how many people will be camping at one time, I would want a front dinette if I was going to get a new Camper. I go with DrJ on the wtw camping a lot and he seems to have much more room in his grandby then I do with mine. Much better use of space and you get a lot more counter...
I guess I will vote for the side of changing it out to the compressor fridges. They do work much better and I like the fact there is no flame going on full time when I'm using my camper. To me, I would rather change it out and know its fixed and working the way I want it then worry about it not...
I agree with you, they are amazing looking campers and are fully loaded just sticker shock to me with out seeing everything itemized out. To each their own.

so here is the pricing from TCM website. I love the cabinets and counter tops and think they should add those as an option on all future models. But yikes the pricing- But then again I paid 1/10th for my used one. thats 20k in options over the base slide in camper.

I re-did my lower cushions with new Fabric and foam. Went from 4 inches factory that was 20 years old to IDL 34 and decron wrapped so I had almost 7inches. Much better then my mattress in my house now. Total project for foam and fabric was around 350.00. I sleep on the L-shape couch as its...
Hi Linda, just wondering what kind of mpg are you getting with the camper loaded? Great looking truck and camper by the way.

Audible.com for sure for me. I drive around a lot and go though 3-4 books a month. Check the reviews and sample the person Narrating the book. I've enjoyed some
Books but can't stand the "performance"

Yes, only for a back up. On this week long camping trip every night was below freezing and on day two the furnace fan started making a loud high pitch noise. Still worked the rest of the trip but with my six year old in the camper with me, just wanted to make sure I always have a back up...
With my bottom bed out, there is no room on the floor to set it up. The only available place is on the counter. But the heat rises so much i can't put my hand on the ceiling with out it feeling like im going to burn it. Just wondering if anyone else has had the same issue and how you over came...
So I have a mr heater and when it's on my counter it heats up so much that the ceiling directly above it gets too hot to touch. Does anyone else have this problem? If so how did you fix it? Most of the time I just use the furnace but i like having a back up plan. Thanks!

I installed my dometic 65l with out cutting any holes in the outside of my grandby. It has venting along the bottom and I installed a vent fan right above the rear and standard home Hvac. It provides 48 inch square inches well above the 36 inch required. I live in Las Vegas and it's kept up with...
I got these from amazon. 260.00 with free shipping per battery. I've been really happy with them. VMAXTANKS 6 Volt 225Ah AGM Battery: High Capacity & Maintenance Free Deep Cycle Battery for Golf Carts, Solar Energy, Wind Energy...
I have the indel 40qt/truck fridge for the past year and when not camping we use it to keep drinks cold. Haven't turned it off in over a year and works like a champ.

I have a dometic 65l I put in my grandby and I would only give it a passing grade. Seems to take a lot of power at 4.5 amps when on and seems to be on a lot. I have 240 watts of solar so It doesn't bother me enough to change it out. I have a portable indel 41 compressor cooler/fridge and I love...
