I'm not really sure why it matters if your propane tanks are on or off while traveling. The information indicated here was no doubt put forth before type-1 tanks with automatic flow limiter valves. This only applies to portable tanks as well. Permanently installed ASME tanks on motorhomes are a different case. On this forum we are talking about portable tanks of course. I'm trying to think of a scenario where it would be dangerous to leave tanks on. In the case where a hose or pipe would suddenly disconnect or break the type-1 valve would stop flow. In the case of an accident the same applies unless the tank valve is destroyed in which case all bet are off.5:59PM -

Everyone that has a trailer or tows a vehicle with a lighting connector cable should own a connector contact cleaner and use it every time you hook up. The contacts in these connectors are usually brass but any metal outside of gold will corrode particularly when exposed to the elements as trailers are. The Male connector on your tow vehicle will usually have a cover to help keep contaminants out but will still need cleaning from time to time. Covers are available for the connector on the trailer cable as well. Keeping dirt and moisture out will go a long way in preventing connection problems. Get some dielectric grease from your local auto parts store and use on both connectors. Not only will it keep water from corroding the contacts it will make connecting the trailer much easier.June 15

Hi, there are a couple of errors in your post on solar panels, and they bolster your argument. First, you should be using 18 or 36V as your panel voltage, because with an MPPT controller, that is where they will be operating. Then you failed to account for the series array having half the current draw, so your voltage drop is half of what you get compared to the parallel connection.
so your percentage losses drop to a quarter when you go from a parallel to a series configuration.June 12-
DigitalSorceressThanks.. Yeah I was thinking about that.. that the raw output from panels is more like 18 or so.. you're absolutely right, and I was just not accounting for the real world values

Your best bet is call Nucamp, they can give you the facts based on the VIN number. There were some issues but I don’t know the details.June 12

We purchased a Mini Max and found so many issue the first weekend we took it back and purchased a TAB 400, I don’t think there is any comparison in quality, the TAB had no issues and the quality is great. We sold a Camp Inn Ultra 560 to move to the TAB so our expectations of quality was very high.June 12

Hi Chuck and Carol, is that a Hasika awning and if so do you use the suction cups for mounting?
Thanks, RayJune 11 -

I have a pretty good idea of what dealer you are talking about, now I'm concerned as that is where we have been thinking about going!June 10

Amazon has this:

Without actually measuring the efficiency of converting 12 vdc to 110 vac then back to the DC voltage required for charging your batteries, you can't definitively say which is more efficient but I can't imagine that using a 12 vdc charger is not more efficient. You can always get a separate 12 vdc solar panel to charge your camera batteries exclusively.June 3-
b407driverHey thanks, that is exactly what I got for this first trip, and I wish I'd bought one years ago. It worked great!

That's a great idea to let Nucamp know of a Dealer that takes pride in their customer service. Thank You for the prompt!June 9

jgram2You’re very welcome. I think we all should let Nücamp know when we have dreadful or incredible experience at any certified Nücamp dealer.
