The one thing I have and love is a 45 degree elbow, with a built in shut off. When I hook up my water line, from the spigot, there is the water pressure regulator, then the hose, then the water filter, then the 45 degree fitting with the shut off. So when we leave the camper for any amount of time, I shut off the water at the spigot, and put the valve on the fitting in the closed position. I did this because on a camping trip I saw a camper that got flooded because of a water pipe burst inside the camper, and the owner swore he turned the water off before he left. So I figured that if kids, or anyone else wanted to play a trick and turn my water on when I wasnt around, the extra shut off would not allow any water to go in the camper. Maybe I'm paranoid, but it was only 2.00 at lowes garden center. And it looks like a regular 45 degree fitting, so it is stealthy

Not a bad idea. As long as you have the 90 anyway might as well include a shut off.

X2...go blue!

Headlamps. The flashlights that strap to your forehead so your hands are free. They are particularly useful at night while walking the dogs: lets you see your "target" to pick up, so one hand holds the blue bag and the other hand hangs onto the leash.

The Harbor Freight Splitter and the 4# hammer that drives it. Makes firewood out of large hunks/rounds that others discard. Both for about $20.

Stupid tape type guages for propane tanks. What a waste!

I am back to when the stove does not work I am out of gas. Go outside & change tanks. Refill empty at soonest convenience.

Geeez wish I had thought of that:S

I have one of these and I would call it a good deal. You do need to get the water good and hot for it to work though.
