    Hello, For some reason my propane furnace heater is no longer working. The bottles still have quite a bit of weight, and there is no red-glow from the indicator. Interestingly, I am dry-camping at the moment, and my Battery ran down to almost nothing, so I don't know if that has anything to do...

    Gulf Stream Owners RV Forum, RV LIFE Forum Hub propane generators

    Hi All, Just wondering if anyone out there had any ideas or comments on the benefits or drawbacks of having a duel fuel (propane and gasoline) generator. I have heard that running one with propane quickly depletes your tank. Thanks, Tom

    Yesterday before leaving for a trip, I tried the 3 modes (120V,12V,LP) on the fridge to make sure they all worked.

    This is our first Grand Design and loving it so far. But, with only one major road trip towing the unit, the fridge will not stay running on propane when the slides are in. As soon as the middle kitchen/dining slides are slightly extended the stove burners and fridge both work. I had someone...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Free 5 gal propane tank

    Free 5 gal propane tank with issues. Two separate places stated the tank was not working correctly, it would register full and stop filling with around 2 gal inside. Stateline and South Lake Tahoe area only, I'm on the Summit of Kingsbury so if you're in the Carson area you'd be close as well.
