Re: Corrosion of Alde Convectors
Thanks, Scott. I called Century and was told if the ph was between 8 and 10 the corrosion protection is still effective. I also was told any ph strips used for hot tubs or swimming pools work fine.
Re: Bike Racks for E Bikes
At 77 years old, lifting an e-Bike up to chest level is not a good option. So, purchased an automobile roof rack for bikes, modified it and mounted it to the trailer tongue. Now I just lift the front wheel and roll it on. Easy-Peesey.
TAB Newbie From Florida
Many years ago, had a Little Guy 5' teardrop and pulled it with my Toyota Highlander from Florida where we live out West all the way to the Pacific Ocean, picked up a telescope and went to a star party in the Sierras. Well, two days ago, after looking at all of the micro trailer options, my wife and I decided on a 2025 TAB 320 S Black Canyon with the Lithium batteries upgrade. Plan to take my wife to some parks in Georgia and plan to go solo boondocking and parks out to the 4 corners region this coming Spring and do some astronomy, hiking and quiet contemplation of our natural world around us. Love what nuCamp has done with these campers. They are amazingly sophisticated for their size/weight and I will be towing with a Honda Ridgeline that has a shell and is all wheel drive. I can't wait to learn more from all you experienced TAB owners and will try an absorb as much information as I can to make the trips more fun! Bob

This special order design combines the “L” model (from previous years) and “S” model – this means there are the large cabinets in the back so lots of storage. This design is perfect for those who can sleep “wheel-to-wheel”. It is still possible to sleep “front-to-back” however the bed will be shorter.

Re: TAB 360 == Fridge Brand & Model ?
@RedDoorGals Gomers2 has one of the new Tab 360's, which uses the "Isotherm Freeline Slim 140" fridge that JkJenn mentioned above.
If your question is in relation to your CS fridge and a possible replacement, this "Slimline" model will not fit.
There are several threads that mention replacing the CS fridge. I believe your fridge is the 740BB?
Look at this thread and the referenced "Truck Fridge". The Norcold fridges have very standard measurements, and many of the fridges designed for replacements tend to mimic the Norcold size and space needs.
Here is a link to "Truck Fridge" that has many examples. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=Truck+Fridge+TF65
Your Fridge may just need a simple thermostat. Check this link:
Re: Refrigerator powered by inverter while driving
Thanks to everyone!
your information is very helpful. I will stick to the original refrigerator system until I save enough money for a more up to date model.
safe camping to all.

Re: Refrigerator powered by inverter while driving
Cherokee said:I go by the experience of people who actually Boondock their T@B. This is someone actually Booondocking with an electric refrigerator : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OujY7L7a1vA
Has it occurred to you that there are many people on this forum who *actually* have a lot of experience boondocking with a 2way fridge?
I've been boondocking with my T@B CS-S (2way fridge) since 2017. My current setup is 160w solar panel and 90aH LionEnergy LiFePO4 battery. Last summer I managed to keep the fridge running in 100+deg temps for 4 days and the battery was still half charged when I packed up.Of course the 2way fridge consumes more power (I budget 35-40aH per day for power consumption) than the 3way on propane mode. But when you're running the 2way fridge while traveling, it consumes much less power than the 3way fridge on DC power (constant 10amps - which is topic that launched this thread).
2014 Nucamp T@b 320S with Extras - $16,500 - Sacramento area
2014 T@B 320 teardrop trailer for sale. This is a standard model with an inside bathroom (wetbath) and inside kitchen. Red and white color. 3rd owner. GVWR 2700lbs, we easily towed behind our 2012 Toyota Highlander Hybrid and a 2022 Toyota Tacoma TRD.Asking $16,500. It is registered in Idaho, but the trailer is physically located in Carmichael, CA. Clean title, no liens. You can contact me at 99birdsong@gmail.com.
-In addition to the standard plastic box that came with it that includes the battery and the propane tank, it also has a locking diamond plated tool box that was added to the front tongue for extra storage.
-Battery is brand new, standard deep cycle marine battery.
-Brand New Screen Door - purchased direct from Nucamp.
-Alde Heater was fully serviced in the past year and converted to the newer glycol fluid that went into use in 2021. This heater works on electric or propane.
-Analog Alde Control Panel has been replaced with a Digital control panel.
-Tires are in good condition, wheel bearings were repacked a few months ago.
-Replaced the stock A/C about 3 years ago with a brand new unit.
-Replaced the outlet from the black tank where you hook up to dump station; it was leaking and we put a whole new outlet and hose connection on it.
-Had emergency break release replaced in past year as it was hard to reset.
-3 way fridge works on shore power, propane, and limited time on battery.
-Replaced stock table with Lagun table and custom wood table top. Bed now uses separate wooden slats and the table top for a base.
Stove burners, radio, television, all work fine. Window shades and screen all in good condition, no tears or rips. 5 gallon freshwater, 7 gallon grey water, black tank is 5 gallon. 2” ball with an interchangeable foot and/or wheel. Trailer can easily be pushed around in the driveway by a single person or two. Very light.
Price includes these additional extras:
1) Pahaque Tent - this adds an extra room to the trailer
2) Pahaque Visor - great for hotter weather!
3) Pahaque Eyebrow - a little shade on quicker trips
4) Classic Accessories Trailer Cover
5) Hoses for black tank/gray tank
6) 2 wheel chocks
7) Shore power cord
8) Water hose
These are the few things that it does have wrong with it: red plastic trim and red plastic storage box has some cracking. May have a few other minor exterior things, but nothing very noticeable. The electronic door lock which was installed after-market, no longer works, but key locks work fine. One of the interior reading lights has a small crack in lip and light often falls out due to vibration in trailer during transport. The other reading light is fine.
It is registered in Idaho, but the trailer is physically in Carmichael, CA. Clean title, no liens.
