Re: Post up some shots of your T@B set-up at the camp site! Part 2

@Verna, I looked at Amazon - that is where we bought our King Camp. @Sboatcruise has one that has a door that unzips to create another awning and the sides roll up, too. I bet you could make this work for the 400. We use ours over our galley.

Re: Hooking up a new Dish portable satellite system.

Yes, the factory coax connector should work fine with the Dish antennae. Unfortunately, I had a severe kink in my cable that was made during construction of the trailer. I had to run a new cable from the outside to the Wally receiver in the trailer.

Re: Unofficial nuCAMP T@B400 Resource Guide - Finalized

V1.1 has been posted and it clarifies some ambiguities, corrects a misstatement about the Alde having 3 boost settings, spells nüCamp correctly with the two dots and adds one page describing the forestry saw, hatchet & wedge stored in the TV that may be needed when large branches fall after you've gone down a forest road.

Re: @ Symbol meaning

Well, this is fun, although not addressing OP’s question at all.

Barefoot Caravan

Found this over on the TaG forum. Looks like another addition to the NuCamp line up.

Re: Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller - Issue noted when towing

just note that this is also the issue with the Curt wireless controller

"by: William03/24/2019

We just took out the curt echo on a week long camping trip. Overall it worked well and as advertised but there was one incident that seemed dangerous. We were going down a particularly steep grade and wanted to turn on our emergency flashers because we were going very slow. When we turn on the emergency flashers the brake controller started breaking In conjunction with the pace of the lights flashing. We were super confused and couldn’t get it to stop because we didn’t realize what was going on until we got to the bottom of the hill. This felt like a really dangerous situation. We were driving a 2009 Acura MDX towing a 19 foot Jayco trailer. 613895

Comments

I spoke with Curt about the trailer brakes pulsing with the hazards and according to Curt, this is a function of the wireless nature of the controller. With an older wired-in controller, a pulse prevention device could be used but because this is a wireless device it wouldnt work. Curt states that there isnt a solution for this issue.

Re: Bike rack

@gkillmaster, I was going to ask if you were looking to put the bikes on your T@B or your tow vehicle, but it sounds like you are open to either.

It also sounds like you have a truck. Does it have a full (6') bed? I carry two bikes clamped upright in the bed of my track, under a cap. It doesn't get much more protected than that, and--since we ride mostly off-road--the bikes are packed and ready for transport from the campground to the trailhead.

You might find this poll/discussion of interest.

Re: Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller - Issue noted when towing

I don't remember seeing this statement on the etrailer.com website when I ordered my brake controller. It may have been added since I purchased mine. I don't know if I would have purchased it had I known of this issue. The statement sounds rather benign, but in reality is quite dangerous. I have since purchased and will be installing the Prodigy P3 this weekend and will remove the RF model.

The Prodigy RF cannot distinguish between hazard lights and brake lights. If you turn on your vehicle's hazard lights while towing with this controller, your trailer brakes will pulse.

Re: Full-timing Solo Female

Thinking of downsizing from a 32' motorhome to a T@B 320 CS-S or similar. Is anyone full-time living in a T@B (besides Mandy and Kendrick)? Especially if solo female, wish to know how it's going? Thanks!

I spent 3 months FT during the summer of 2016. I had a job that allowed me to work remotely, at the time. The 320 was plenty big enough for me and my dog, but if I were to go FT, again, I would seriously consider the 400 for the closet. I am not 100% sure I would switch, but I would consider it. The 320 fits into some spots that the 400 cannot and the 320 is very maneuverable in tight spaces. Also....gas mileage.

Re: Full-timing Solo Female

I don’t full time, but @Dalehelman and his wife traded down from a 40’ trailer to a Tab 320S Sofitel and love it. They usually spend three months each year in warmer climates, so they part time-full time I guess. Hope this helps!
