Nothing new when compared to most others. They even spotlight high quality components from Lippert, Furrion, etc in the brochure. No matter how much you polish a turd, it's still a turd.
Talk about painting a kettle black Ralph.....
I agree, a turd is a turd even if the smell is gone. I can honestly say, I've never read a positive review of ANY Travel Lite product. Kind of surprised they are still in business. I guess the siren call of cheap is too much for people to resist but everything I've read says the romance leaves quickly, replaced with grief.
In defense of Furrion, I have to say the rear view cam my wife bought me for Christmas 2 years ago (Furrion) has been flawless.
I hope it serves you well buddy, I got about 3 seasons out of mine on the Rockwood until the lens somehow degraded until the picture is so fuzzy it's unusable. The great stand up company Furrion, who happens to be a "partner" of Lippert, was more than helpful. I tried to buy a new camera head and at the time they were still selling the FOS48TAPK which is now discontinued despite still being available at Amazon and other places as well as RV manufacturers still installing the brackets for same. Basically the response was.
Thank you for purchasing our product but unfortunately your SOL. It's out of warranty, we do not have, will never have, or intend to ever have replacement parts available for any of the products we distribute because we have them manufactured in limited production runs under contract offshore. Therefore we appreciate you spending $300.00 for something that is unusable in less than 3 years but if you send us $500 this time we can send you our new model the "Vision S". Maybe you could buy two now for when the first one ***** out you'll have a spare camera head, because we won't have parts available. Thank you.
On another note the 32" Furrion TV that came with the Rockwood did not make it a year and a half after being relegated to basement duty before it spewed smoke. That thing had the worst picture of any LCD TV I have ever seen to begin with.
