Re: Danby AC Replacement & Upgrade
Nice fit ReenieG! You may want to consider stuffing some insulation in any space between the box and the A/C unit, although, on yours, there isn’t much of a gap.
Re: More Fresh Water Capacity by Pumping System Full Before Trip
I have a 2021 320S and have never heard that. Nucamp always talks about boondocking....and most boondocking locations do not have potable water sources. This is my fourth year with my T@B and I have always traveled with a full tank of water.
Re: Vibrating hot and cold lines
Sooo UPDATE to my problem…. We discovered that both hoses attached to the water pump should be flexible… only one was so we changed it and that seems to have made it much quieter overall… for the few times we don’t have a city water hookup 👍🏻
Re: Adding Battle born package to 2022 t@b 320 css
Meaning a Battleborn battery? Easy.
Meaning more than one battery, inside the trailer,with the Multiplus charger converter, etc?
Re: Finally!! A real trash can!!
This is how I mounted the trash can. I did not want to cut the tabs off of the T@B door, so I cut some holes in the trash can. To cut the holes, I heated up a utility knife blade and melted a square hole. If the holes were in the wrong place, I could just buy another trash can.
The biggest downside of this trash can, in my opinion, is it blocks the drawer underneath the fridge when the T@B door is closed. Other, not problems: The lid of the trash can does not fit in this configuration, but this is not a problem for us. And, yes, the trash can interferers with the screen door, but, again not a problem for us.
I have kept the original "trash can," the lid and lid spacers and will provide to the next owners of this rig when the time comes.

Re: Simple performance boost for Air8 air conditioner
Clever and simple. I'll make one and use dual lock fasteners.

Great idea. Thank you.
Re: Right Victron Controller for Renogy "Suitcase" solar panels?
I installed a Victron MPPT 100/30 solar controller near the cutoff switch under the bed. Here I can access the controller through the door on the passenger side, mainly because I was reticent about drilling through the sidewall (although I am reconsidering upgrading to a through hull type of connection). I chose this location because there always seems to be more open area on that side of the camper when parked. I have seen on the forum where others installed the port in the Nautilus area.Ikanizer said:Can you describe how you have your ground array connected to your system in terms of distance and wire gauge? I have a ‘23 400 upgraded to 3 x 100 ah batteries and need more solar.
When connected in parallel, my four Renogy 100W briefcase panels can provide up to about 20A of current. Based on the chart below (from the Renogy web site) I use 10 Gauge copper solar cable to connect the panels to the Victron and carry a total of 50 feet of cables. I like to use the shortest length combination of cables for any campsite.
When the T@B is in full sun and we have the rooftop and ground array working at capacity, I've seen a reading of 30A of charge on our SmartShunt. It doesn't take long to recharge the 300AH of battery capacity in our T@B.
As part of making our life more natural disaster resilient, I can use my four briefcase panels in different combinations to recharge our two portable power supplies, 500WH and 1500WH. I really like the adaptability in my system.
Hope this answers the question you had....
Re: Danby AC Replacement & Upgrade
This is the finished product. No spacers were needed. The new unit filled the space front to back. The trim piece had to be refitted though.
I removed the deflectors from the Danby AC and placed them on the back of the Midea AC before installing. I used 2" 3M tape.
