Re: SMI Air Force One install

Just keep safety in mind when doing this. Yes but the AF1 unit in the motor home requires both the brake line and a supply line meaning the main tank will be empty. Perhaps just one step closer for the air bags to become deflated. Even if you empty both air tanks that will not dump the air out of the inflated bags. The bags are not dumped until you level the mh using the automatic leveling system or manually dump the air bags. With the suspension fully inflated you can still manually extend the jacks and keep the bags inflated.363Views0likes0CommentsRe: Sirius XM Radio
Cristian123 wrote: Do you guys still listen to serius xm? After the renewal of their service, I started experiencing issues. When I get in my car it says no signal. I called them several times, but nothing changed. Also, I read the sirius xm radio reviews. It turned out that I'm not alone and that a lot of people cancel their contracts. What about you? And can you suggest a good alternative? Thanks in advance. Yes we still use Sirius XM. We only have it in our vehicle. Decent radio stations where we currently live are not so good. When signing up ask for the free three month trial. When that's up Sirius will typically offer another three months free. Before those three months are up you will start getting yearly offers from Sirius good rates. Hold out for the $50 a year rate. Sometime you might even get a $50 Visa card too. Just don't take their first offers, hold out for the $50 yearly rate.556Views0likes0CommentsRe: Temperature Monitor
To all those with negative responses. I have Automatic Generator start. For either power loss or pre determined temperature. The AcuRite has a battery backup. If the Acurite site has not had any communication from my Acurite unit for an hour it will send me a notice of the communication loss. It will also inform me when communications are restored. Once communications is restored I will have access to all data during that period of loss. Like I said earlier I've had Acurite for 6 years without issues and this unit for almost 3 months without ANY issues. My router has a builtin cell modem equipped with a dual SIM setup. I have both Verizon and AT&T for cell data. If one carrier fails the other will automatically take over. For other instances I also have WiFi over Wan that will allow campground WiFi through my router. I think I've got most bases covered. I understand what works for you, works for you. I was answering the OP question about temperature monitoring. I was just stating what I have and how I like it. I'm not trying to sway anyone's opinion here. AcuRite works for me and that's all I care about.445Views0likes0CommentsRe: How to Block Automatic Windows 10 Updates?

Then go to Settings and click 'Update & Security' and check for updates.

All the lines/traces just stay on the bottom and show no movement, even though a normal gauge shows that there is a value. Anyone run into this?? And have a solution? Also, I have been trying to register on the Silverleaf forum for a while, but the Captcha does not work so I can't register. Are you using the latest version v4.0.8? If not, maybe the newer version will fix your problem?193Views0likes0CommentsRe: Convection oven - phooey, Switched to Toaster oven
We found that our Sharp Carousel convention oven/microwave also slow to heat up. We found this Cuisinart Convection oven a great alternative to the larger Sharp. It has a small footprint but still large enough to bake a medium frozen pizza. It has heats evenly while baking. We use it daily. I don't remember the last time we used the oven part of our Sharp.

We have a PepWave router with built in cellular data card and use the AcuRite 09155M Access Compatible with Amazon Alexa . This allows us remote access to monitor temps in our motorhome. The AcuRite 09155 can be programmed for temperature alerts that are sent via email. I have an AcuRite Access at my winter home. Two weeks after I went North for the summer my AcuRite went off line and has not come back in a month. The AcuRite requires a wifi. I know my wifi is OK as I have a couple Ring Doorbell products on the same wifi and they are working. I've never experienced your problem. This is the latest from AcuRite which replaced a unit I had for about 6 years. So far I've been using this just over 3 months and the connection has been rock solid.446Views0likes0Comments
