Almost blew up HappyJack 2 this weekend !!!!!!!:o
We were at our new seasonal site near Colonial Beach VA for the Independence Day weekend and I must have bumped and accidently turned on one of the stove top burners while moving stuff inside the rig. We were watching the campground fireworks show on Saturday nite from a nearby dock and someone said the had heard an "alarm clock" beeper for a while then realized it was an alarm from inside our camper when they smelled propane. It was closed up with the A/C on at the time.
I ran into the camper( dumb move ) and turned of the burner. I shut off the valve at the tank then killed the power at the switch on the pedestal. With the front doors and rear door open it took thirty minutes for the alarm to stop beeping. With the fan on high and all the windows open after the alarm stopped, it was an hour before the smell had cleared enough to sleep.
The rig had almost a full tank of gasoline and was parked in a park with 400 nearby rigs. I figure if it had went up we would have been the lead story on the evening news on saturday nite.
