Black Gorilla tape is SOOOO much better!

 

True.........

That stuff is fantastic !!

 

I have a roll of each.



I don't know why.

 

Gaffers' tape works as well. Tough, waterproof and rated for electrical use. Does not leave residue (I use it for winterizing and it comes off as clean as it went on). Good for temporary fixes and permanent ones. A bit pricey, but my go to stuff.

 

We boondock most of the time, don't have solar yet so we depend on our EU2000 Honda Generator. The one thing I would tie to this is our Tri-Metric TM2025RV battery monitor. It's been replaced by the TM2030 but both do pretty much the same. It's like having a fuel gauge for your batteries.

What a coincidence, I was stationed here at NAS Fallon from 1977 - 1980. I was assigned to VA-122's permanent det. way back then.

WE will have to meet up when I get there.......

 

Great idea! I went looking for a progressive power management system, and just looking on Amazon , I like the portable units vs hard wired. But seems like everyone is concerend about theft. Seems crazy to me to think anyone has had something stolen while camping. I guess im too trusting, I usually don't lock my rig, and leave everything out while I'm away. I guess I just figured campers are not thieves

 

That's interesting about thief's, I worry about Yellowstone camping and all that they tell me about thief's working the area and the bears.

I am in a camping area that is half seasonal and half transit. A year ago I went to empty my portable dump tank and half way there it split and waste was released. On inspection I realized it was a old unit and that my 6 month old unit had been switched. All the campers were extremely upset and actually searched the grounds. The owners were actually very upset that this could even happen. It was the first time someone stole something other than a beer out of a cooler. I now have a newer and bigger portable waste tank and I do keep it secured to the camper. Never found out who did it but the assumption is it was a weekender because it has never shown up at the grounds and people still look and tell me.

Shook up all the camping community. Has not happened to anyone since.

 

I'm changing my earlier response to the second air conditioner that I just installed over the 5ers bedroom nose. After a mid 90's temp and humidity weekend we just had in the Adirondacks, it sure was nice to sleep in critter comfort

CG thefts - so far we haven't seen any in our seasonal place but there are enough transit folks that I tend to not leave anything out anyhow tho most transit folks that stay there are repeat visitors
