Re: Installed the KickAss brand awning on my 2023 320s Boondock
I agree, most Keder rail awnings take too much time to set up, however I found the small awnings don't give enough shade or protection in the rain so I went with a Moonshade XL. Sits just over the top so there's no chance of a leak on the door side and just ties to the front and rear handles. The door can stay open. Quick easy set up and a lot of shade/rain protection 9'x12'.

Re: Fridge Additional Insulation 2021 TAB 320ss? And other ideas for improving fridge efficiency...
I think that you've hit on something interesting here. I attached some reflectix to the front of my clamshell fridge so that the fridge doesn't absorb heat through the black front. I hadn't considered that so much heat could be entering from the trailer sidewall. What happens to your readings if you have an awning on the side of the trailer or something else to block the sun from hitting the sidewall?
Re: Remove television and Jensen stereo.
I just unplugged the TV and leave it in place, it's not in our way. I installed a on/off switch just below the Jensen stereo in the closet ceiling so it is off when I'm not using it which is seldom.
Re: Failed water pump after about 400 days of service
I'm curious. Did you disassemble the old one? There are a couple of small pressure ports in there (in addition to the main diaphragm) that can be replaced. Perhaps they, not the diaphragm, were the issue. On my pump, nearly every spring I have to take it apart and stab away at one of them to get it working.

Re: Remove television and Jensen stereo.
I know all about being attached to a great amp. I've built several tube amplifiers, this last year I designed and built a 300B based single-ended amp. It sounds phenomenal. But I think it's better enjoyed at home. If I had that much luxury on the road, I'd have no reason to come back.
Re: Batteries moved by previous owner-should I move them back under the bed?
Thank you for trying -- the info you did find was helpful for me to check for possible ventilation. I have also tried to search using many different words & phrases -- it's hard sometimes to find things you are searching forpthomas745 said:@lkc001 sorry that I can't find a good photo or thread (another Google failure!)

Re: Remove television and Jensen stereo.
@bayernfan, the Jensen will run when boondocking on battery power.
Yeah, I think a tube amp would be a misfit in the trailer. Too bad, they’re great! I have a McIntosh MA-6100 integrated amp at home. Can’t give it up.

@pthomas745. To follow up —looking inside under the bed there are two small cutouts by the battery shutoff — both of those have wiring going down under the floor— I have no way of knowing if they are also “vents”.

Re: Batteries moved by previous owner-should I move them back under the bed?
On my 2019 400 the black box vented in two places; one on the side of the trailer above and forward of the battery switch, and one below the black box. I would think you would only need one, as I've seen in some cars with batteries in the trunk. Could be a good time to convert to LiFEPO4 batteries...
