We're almost 1600 miles into our Alaska trip. Today after another 220 miles, is Great Falls MT for final provisions before crossing into Alberta mid-day tomorrow.
The Camco Electric Water Heater Element Kit I installed, works great, just turn it on at arrival and plenty of hot water shortly . We both took showers last night about an 1/2 hour apart and had no problem, however since it's like jumping into a Baggie, not much water was used anyway.
So far the only thing that has caused any problem on the 213 at all is the way R-Vision positioned the black tank dump valve, angling down at 45° instead of parallel to the ground. It actually hangs down a bit lower than the frame mounted skid bars. I had thought about it before, but let it slide. Looks as though it will be rotated 90° up when I get a chance on a concrete pad. So since I have to look forward to the nasty job will pick up new grey & black dump valves in Great Falls today. Actually thinking about an electric black tank dump valve, just might be a nice addition when the trip is over.
BTW 100% chance of rain today here in Columbus MT, and yes it is raining for my morning campsite leaving preparations. Trying to talk Scottiemom into trying to do the "Blue Jobs" for practice, just in case I get hurt on the trip. Doesn't look like I'm very persuasive in my argument.
