We have been T@Bing for going on 5 years. Attended more rallies than I can recall. Met T@Bers of all sizes and shapes. With pets even multiple pets. It all depends on your commitment to small trailer travel or extended living. It’s not for everyone. You will probably not know for sure if it is for you until you try. There are always a few almost new T@Bs for sale. Sometimes it’s health other times it’s just a not the right fit. You make your choice and take your chances. If you want it to work it can.
What if anything is the relationship between NuCamp and the whatever company(ies) manufacture T@bs in Europe. It seems that NuCamp mirrors many of the design elements of the T@bs manufactured in Europe. Just curious. I assume that T@bs were first made in Europe and then migrated to manufacturers here in the USA.
@Tiffany, just a note. The plastic sink has an offset drain and the stainless sink has a center drain. The plumbing lines will not match, so there will be a bit of adjustment to be made. I am going to suggest while doing the plumbing you install a hep-v-O waterless trap under the sink. The space saving is really worth the trouble since you will already be working in and altering the plumbing there. @Dalehelman has a thread with pictures, directions and hints regarding the installation of the trap. Good luck and happy modding!
AND! If you want to address a comment or a call out to a member in a regular public thread, type an @ sign before their username followed (with no space) by the first few letters of the username. A drop down will appear with possible names, select the person you want and type your message. Most members set up their preferences to get a pop up and or email when their name is mentioned on the forum. This is especially helpful in a long thread when you want to query or answer a member several comments earlier.
Each TT & TV combination will have a different setting due to how each person has loaded their vehicles. Whenever I've changed something such as adding weight through people & equipment, I've done a quick test. Following the feedback in this review is as good as any. Gravel test is best. https://www.rvtravel.com/adjusting-trailer-brake-controllers/
@ScottG I’ve found that adjusting the passenger side mirror to point downward allows me to see what I need to miss better. Many sites I stay in use large rocks at the drive entrance.
@PamandJohnUpNorth2 Our plan was to extend our camping to 3+ seasons, giving us the chance to stay out when overnight temperatures drop enough below freezing to be a concern but we don't personally plan to be out in really cold situations when the temp is below freezing all day. The Black tank is in the interior of the trailer (under the toilet, on top of the floor) and since we plan to use the tank heaters only when we are using and thus heating the trailer, we didn't add any heat to the black tank therefore keeping the amp draw down.
Yes, we do in fact have some stick on heating pads from etrailer on our fresh and gray water tanks and valves in our T@B 400. We wanted to avoid the need to winterize just for a night or two of subfreezing weather in places like Crater Lake in September or the mountains of New Hampshire during Fall Foliage but wanted to be sure the amp draw would allow us to continue to camp off grid. We purchased some ThermaHeat RV Dump Valve Pipe and Elbow Pads and a switch from etrailer.com. NüCamp R&D is aware of our design and we had it and piping insulation installed by Austin at the nüCamp Service Center.
The four 13"x3" (two per tank) and two 8"x3" pads (on the piping next to the gray and black valves) have a collective amp draw of just over 3 amps and are wired to a single rocker switch (located just above the monitor panel near the entry). We successfully used it a couple of times this fall both off grid and on shore power.
