Need expert advise from those that know batteries best. I have an 05 PW Excel that has room for just one 12v house battery in the outside compartment. It's a wet cell, and just as soon get away from them and go to an AGM battery. My plan is to purcha...

Adding enclosed heated underbelly. Can it be done?

Perhaps an odd question but has anyone taken a regular 3 season TT and added the enclosed heated underbelly? I am not too familiar with what they do at the factory for this option but seems like perhaps it could be a doable thing. Can't see it being ...

I have 2 - 2000W inverters factory installed on my 2011 Fleetwood Providence. Recently I had repairs done to one at the Fleetwood service center in Indiana. Since I arrived here in FL, my electricity usage has gone up dramatically all of a sudden (Do...

Residential fridge replacement for Norcold LRIM

I know I saw on here perhaps a year or so ago mention of a residential fridge that was a good fit for the Norcold 1201 LRIM space. I have done a bunch of searches and can't find it. I thought I had made a note of it and can't find where I put the not...

We have Porgressive EMS-HW50C about 1.5 years old and hardwired at the dealership into our new camper. Yesterday about 1:00 a.m. we heard this loud tapping noise. We thought we had a large rat in our wall at the rear of camper, but there is no way ...

Good place for Onan parts in RGV?

On the way down to the Rio Grande Valley my Onan 5500 with 165 hours started to misbehave - sometimes wouldn't prime, hard to start and sometimes surging.Ultimately it worked every time I needed it but while I'm parked for 3 months I figure it's time...

Dometic Overrange replacement

My 2003 Dometic convection/micro oven was fried due to an electrical issue. I want to replace it but I understand Dometic no longer makes an over the range model. My unit also controlled the RV exhaust fan so I need a unit that can manage the exhaust...

Sluggish seatbelts on older vehicles

Not specifically a RVing question but it does apply to my older tow vehicle. Especially in the winter time, the seatbelts are difficult to pull out and hesitant to retract. I have two older vehicles with this behavior. Do the mechanisms need repla...
