Gadgets & Gizmos

Who else has has bought these add ons only to find out that they do not perform as advertised and what did you do with them?
  • Wireless printers? Couldn't live without one. Well, I could but they're so convenient why do without one? What problem did you have?
  • Grit Dog to make things simple....like remote sensors....tank level monitors....wifi applications for the rv....remote door locks....burgular alarms....motion sensor lights....wireless back up cameras....wireless printers.....those things not preinstalled on the rv...these are gizmos and gadgets..
  • Bob, wake up. You’re sleep posting again.
    Please finish your thoughts in the morning!

    Only thing I have bought that did not perform as I expected was a tripod stabilizer for the 5er. Helped little. Used it a year, then set it out in front of the trailer at an RV park with a $40 sign on it and it was gone within an hour. About an $80 net loss.

    One came with our trailer and I put it on Craig’s list. It was gone the next day for $50. I wonder how often these Tri-pods get shuffled from one owner to the next.

    If the item is advertised "As seen on TV" it's probably a Gadget or Gizmo. AKA: JUNK.
