Mods to my new TT
I bought a new Snowriver 234RBS and have started doing mods:
1) Put a chain in the in ceiling TV so it does not bounce down on the slide corner in transit
2) installed a small LED next to bathroom switch. It is on the opposite wall from the door, so now I can find the switch in the dark
3) installed 4 USB charging ports below Kitchen counter for charging cell phones and e-books
4) installed 2 12 V jacks below counter for portable vacuum.
5) installed 2 6v Golf cart batteries, high capacity. Nearly put my back out they weigh over 100 lbs each.
6) installed Sirius Satellite docking station & tied into DVD player. Fortunately there was a nearby sewer vent to run antenna next to up onto the roof.
Still to do
Install a pass through sine wave inverter to power bedside plugs, outside bar fridge & in ceiling TV when not plugged in, remove Norcold off the same circuit so it does not run off inverter as well..
Install the built in Surge Guard power protector I removed from my old RV
Install a rear view camera
Coat the entire chassis with Everbrite to protect it against salt air in Mexico.
Apply 303 protectant on Rubber roof
Move fridge to its own breaker
Put a switch inside to turn outside kitchen fridge on or off.
here are some photos
Sirius docking station:
12v outlets
USB outlets
Led light to find light switch in bath. Its not near the door.. Stays on all the time, little current draw. Bright enough to take a pee in middle of night.
Remount of Lippert slide control board so you can see it & reset it. Plus it gets it off the ground in case something leaks under there. The strip above I installed to tap the 12 v off for the 12 v & USB outlets with separate 10 amp fuses..
In ceiling TV anchor so it does not bounce down & hit slide corner
FM modulator to back feed TV sound to DVD
