So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?
I saw these threads in some of the other Open Roads RV Forums, but didn't see one for TCs. I'll start... I installed Interior LED puck lights and a 12v power outlet.

Hello Mike and fellow TC lovers.. Well, since I love the southwest desert I designed and built a simple "hard plumbed" mister to service the awning side of my old '95 Squire. The system is not yet complete as purchasing the mister nozzles stopped me in my tracks. I want to be sure of the fitting size and can't locate anywhere in stores to pick them up so on line orders have to be right... right? So this is my design and oh I'm still on the little Nexus 7 which doesn't seem to want to cooperate with pasting or copying photo files. I'm picking up an i7 LT next week so will post lots of pictures from that time forward but I digress!!!
>>>>>> I used 1/2" pvc and began the run just under the outside shower.
I first installed a 1/2" threaded ftg and then hard plumbed the piping across the rear and to the awning side. I installed a "T" near the rear on that side and then a little 1/2" Ball Valve and then continued the run to the front side and installed a 90 on the end. I found that the flex hose on the shower was 1/2" so to operate the mister, I can set the outside shower on the hook, remove the flex hose from the shower head and connect it to the mister. On the business end, I can use the ball valve if I only want the rear mister and leave it open for both.
Not sure how it will work yet but I figure with just cracking the shower open a little it should maintain the very low psi needed to slowly push out that wonderful cool water over all the bathing beauties laying under my awning in their Bikini's by the river....
