Re: Anyone use a battery operated blower?
I use a Ridgid 18v Jobsite Blower. It is absolutely excellent. I just got done clearing leaves and pine needles and twigs off a driveway. It ran continuously for 30+ minutes and the 4AH battery was still going strong. If bought at Home Depot, it comes with a TRUE lifetime warranty on both blower and battery. For non-commercial use, if either one fails, they will repair or replace it free forever. They even pay shipping in both directions. LeRoy468Views0likes0CommentsRe: Awning Style Solar Panel
I believe that your idea of mounting solar panels to the side of your RV is basically sound. Solar panels are relatively heavy and wind loads can be significant. Personally, I would not trust J brackets. I would use heavy brass or stainless steel continuous hinges. LeRoy138Views0likes0CommentsRe: "Maybe 550 is not so bad, after all . . . "
I agree with all of you that the driver made SEVERAL poor decisions. However, I would like to diverge from this train of discussion and say that Hwy 550, the Million Dollar Highway, has been and is a beautiful and rewarding drive both with my 35 foot fifth wheel and my truck camper as long as the weather is pleasant. It provides great scenery and gives one an appreciation for the hard work that the original gold prospectors had to endure. Enough said. Now back to the unfortunate motorhome incident.511Views0likes0CommentsRe: ARCTIC PAC switch

Happijac sells leg extenders that would solved the problem of being "over extended". They are 6" tall, bolt directly to the bottom of the existing jacks, and pricey but well made. You could easily make your own to whatever height would be appropriate for your application. Happijac leg extenders LeRoy484Views0likes0CommentsRe: Happijacs, what will happen if.........
