Thats intresting. My DW could use a bit less color in her language when lighting the stove.

Where did you find it?? Or what was it before you made it for your stove?????


There was a post in the DIY forum last fall. I remembered it and looked it up this spring. Click here to see the post. It has all the details.

Well, I didn't do all this today but in the last few weeks.
Installed a shower light. I didn't like the little bit of hallway light that managed to get thru the shower door.
Replaced the sparker on the stove with an electronic sparker. Now all the DW has to do is push the button instead of spinning the OEM sparker and cussing at it.
Replaced some incandescent light bulbs with LEDs.
Summerized it too.

We washed the outside, installed a trik-l-start to keep the coach battery charged, installed a sewer hose carrier I made from 4 inch square fence post, installed a 5,000 ohm potentiometer in line with the thermistor on our Dometic refrigerator for better temerature control (our refrigerator was freezing everything after a day or so), and installed 2 maxairs (Campmor substitutes actually)a white one in the living area and a black one in the bedroom.

Now everything is done and we are ready for summer.

We took our Greyhawk to the dealer for its last Warranty service, about 7 items. The warranty is up on Friday. Nothing major, just little things that I'd rather let the dealer do than try to rig something up.

Ran the jenny with the A/C on for about 45 min, ran a shop vac inside for some heavy duty cleanup after our last trip (where we felt like the public restroom).
Put away some gear that was just tossed in on the way home last trip. Found the heat shield on the jenny exhaust has broke a weld, should be an easy fix and chance to use my little mig welder... Next weekend is our big 2-3 day Music Festival, looks like we're ready to roll.

>I will put the charged battery back in, connect the wires, reset the fuses, and hope for the best.

I suggest that you get your battery checked. After being that low, it is doubtful that it survived. I wouldn't want to be on a trip and have no battery. Better you find out now.

Yesterday, I cleaned the interior making ready for a trip. I checked the coach battery putting in a little water. Didn't need a charge. I washed off my fresh water hose. DW made the bed.
Today, I have connected the fresh water hose to check the hot water heater. BUT, no power in the coach at all. Checked the battery connections which seem tight. Pulled the battery and it was down about .4 amps. Put the charger on it and I am waiting for it to get fully charged. I checked the fuses which all seem to be in the ON position. I disconnected the battery disconnect switch which I don't think is working (or has EVER worked). I filled the tires with air, checked the cab battery, and the cab fluids. DW has begun packing the clothes and groceries.
I will put the charged battery back in, connect the wires, reset the fuses, and hope for the best.

Yes again another fill up in Fla. 3.99 gal Giving those tax breaks to the rich oil company's make a lot of sense . And putting in all the rich crooks in congress helps also. Guess when you vote stupid you get what you get.

Well, busy day. I de-winterized the camper today. Pain in the rear anode rod on the Subarban heater is 1 1/16" for the socket, that resulted in a trip to ACE Hardware. Anyways, I got the units water systems running and all is well.

Installed felt pads on all the drawer faces to stop them from future rubbing. I'm suprised they don't install them stock but whatever, it was a $2 investment and that was a quick fix.

I also put in the 26" LCD and Blue-ray player into a hidden cabinet.

For my last trick, I took out a standard vent in the rear bedroom and installed a Maxxair all-in-one vent and cover.

That is bad and it's going to get worse, Get this gas right now in Venezuela is 12 cent's a gallon, I know there is some places in the world where gas is $12 dollars a gallon and some places where it is 53 cents a gallon, There is no reason for gas to be 3 and 4 or more dollars a gallon in this country, ..:h Oh well it all may end December 21 2012 We will all be back on Horses then, So they say.....LOL I wonder what kind of Horse drawn RV buggies there will be, Six horses could pull a good size unit.
