Have them put patches over the rivets on the front and back of the vinyl pop up. They are supposed to put caulking in the hole on the rivets but if they don't put enough the holes will cut into your top. You may not need two fans, I seldom use mine and it takes up valuable space on top that you...

You would have scoot out to the edge of the seat, but yes. Better to make the bed (couch) set up , then plenty of room. Either way using some back support would be helpful. Rechecked just now, plenty of room even without back support!

I was using the Harbor Freight foot stool on unlevel ground, got in a hurry and went out of the camper frontwards instead of backwards, then stepped on the outside edge of the stool which was facing downhill, it tipped forward causing me to lose my footing and hit the bottom of the door...

Happened to me once. I used Tri- Flow with Teflon spray and haven't had a problem since (knock on wood!). A locksmith told me it's the best lubricant, it doesn't gunk up the mechanism. Might try that and see if you get better results; otherwise a lock smith does seem like a good idea.

Some good information on on this web site. It also has the "Battery State of Charge" chart. Don't let the batteries get below 40-50%. Your Zamp controller will tell you your current battery voltage. Nice thing about the 6-volt system as you probably already know is you'll get a lot more amp...

I am assuming your dometic 110 is a compressor style. I have one and like you the 95 watt couldn't keep up. all I did was have FWC install a 30 amp Zamp controller. I already had a plug on back of camper for a portable so I added a Zamp 160 portable. So far with good sunlight have been very...

Congratulations and Happy Trails!

Currently using a 1 foot level on the sink counter and eye ball it. This works pretty well; however, ran across this product which looks kind of interesting and eventually will probably give it a try. It's made for trailers but works well on truck campers according to the inventor...

For the roof consider the Sno Joe: https://www.snowjoe.com/product/snow-joe-illum-n-broom-led-lighted-snow-broom-ice-scraper Froli system to give support and get air under mattress: http://nickleatlantic.com/ Leave your furnace on low and the doors to the cabinets open.Can even get a...

No problem, thought it might be humor which does run a fine line.It just hit me the wrong way and was hoping to get some clarification. Thanks for clearing it up. Have a cold one on me and have a good Labor Day!

Hey good buddy, it was Applegate turkey bacon grease,but thanks for the concern! :)

Did you join this forum to exchange information and learn or insult the members? What " ain't right about bacon grease"?

FWC will send you a small piece of arctic pack material to glue on. Burnt mine a little when some hot bacon grease on a paper towel barely touched it. Material melts fast!

Just a HEADS UP... wasn't going to go very far and don't like to latch the roof down too tight anyway. Left what I thought was a thread or two still left in the latch housing and somehow it fell off on the road someplace!

I have a 2013 Hawk with the veneer (paper). FWC told me to clean it with a 50-50 mix of Orange Clean multi purpose cleaner and Windex. Seems to do a nice job.

In a year and half, blew the fuse to the 12 volt outlets, don't know why.

Does anyone with the new strip LED lights have a flicker problem?

Mic..... Are your lights pancake style or the new strip LED lights? I have heard that some of the pancake lights are problematic.Mine are pancake.

Thanks again for the input. Ran across this which has some interesting info and thought I would pass it along. Will keep working on it. https://www.instyleled.co.uk/what-causes-led-flicker-and-how-can-i-stop-it-happening/

Thank you EDR, will check it out.

Bill D or anyone, Spent hours cleaning the significant rubber stain left on the vinyl from the rubber gasket with the 303 cleaner. It got a good 95% of it. Will continue working on it; however, do you have any suggestions for getting the last of the deeply embedded stuff other than more elbow...

Have a 2013 Hawk, the pancake style LED lights flicker more than is comfortable. Has anyone had this problem and found a way to resolve it? Thanks ahead of time.

Had good luck with http://www.partstrain.com/

Try the Froli system. http://nickleatlantic.com/ Reasonable prices and easy people to work with. I got the "star" system 1" 3/4 high. absolutely wonderful. Tried it with a gel mat only and didn't work, you can feel the springs. Then put the mattress pads that came with my 2013 Hawk and...

Yes sir, Raid Flying Insect Killer", did the trick! Very light application.Thanks for the heads up on Deet.
