My daughter was getting a little warm in her bunk during our last camping trip, so I decided to put her a fan in to keep the air flowing.

I had been wanting to add a 12-volt fan to the main living area anyway, so I decided to tackle both jobs today. A trip to Wal-Mart for two fans($8.48 each) and we're halfway there.

She picked the spot, and I got to work -



I picked up the power from her overhead light. All I have left is to install a short piece of wire cover and I'm done -



I added one in the main area -



I dropped by Lowe's and found this cool soap dispenser. I also just installed these Pop-a-Toothbrush holders -



I added a sopa dispenser to the kitchen area as well. I also installed a Pop-a-Napkin under the radio -



Here's an easy mod. I found this over the door towel rack at Walmart and it works great -

oznium.com is an American owned company that I've dealt with frequently. Excellent customer relations and good products of all types dealing with LED's. I'm looking at their waterproof SMD bar for under my trailer.

You really need some of these on your trailer!

I was thinking more of some rotating disco balls hung under the trailer. You know, spread the light around some for all the neighbors. 🙂

HMMMM. Do they make those in my trailers bolt pattern???? LOL. Seriously though, these lights are going to be great for late night set ups, and for all the stuff we store under the camper once set up.

Good luck finding American made LEDS. You can find a ton of USA sellers selling the same "China" LEDS. If that makes you feel better just send me $50 and I will order them off Ebay then resell em to you. 🙂

About a dollar a foot. I haven't been shopping for these lately but had thought about getting some and, somewhere else I entirely forget where or in what context, I got the idea these lights were under a dollar a foot. Maybe not.

Before you know it the whole camping world will have these on their TT's. I actually like the idea. We boondock in some very far away dark places. Would be nice for finding the TT once the lights and lanterns are out. Also, they are down low so they are not as much of a nuisance to all those around you. Looks good. Looks like they got them on sale for $1.00 a strip plus $2.91 shipping for the next 11 hours.


But no combined shipping, $2.71 for each additional item, Adds up.


Still only $3.91 a strip that is cheep.

Those look cool, although I am opting for white LEDs myself. Thanks for the idea and link. I am putting one of those LED strips under the area where the stairs are leading into the TT. The other strips I purchased are going into the storage areas for some much needed light.

If anybody wants to know, here is the link for the white LEDs from the same vendor iowassfan used - 120cm White 60 LED SMD Flexible Strip Car Light 12V New
