Re: Which Electric Tongue Jack to get
I'm 77 years old, our 320 is really, really easy to crank manually. You may want to pop the cover and put fresh grease on the gears.
Re: New lithium phosphate battery question
Check your WFCO converter model number:WildRumpus said:I have a 2022 Tab 400 Boondock. From what I've gathered form this forum, the charger won't fully charge the Lithium battery to 100% (more like 85%), correct?
WF8735/P - Not for lithium batteries (charges to 80%)
WF-8735LiS - Has switch for charging lithium batteries
WF8735-AD - Auto Detects for charging lithium batteries (doesn't always so you may have to fiddle with it)
Re: Waning/SunShade DIY TAB 320s 2018
@Tross2023 a pattern with measurements for the XL visor (awning) for a 320 S is detailed in a thread here on the forum. Several people have used it, sewn the visor and reported back that the pattern is accurate and relatively easy if you have some general sewing knowledge. Good luck in whichever direction you go.
Re: Waning/SunShade DIY TAB 320s 2018
Search “Larry’s Redneck Front Porch” for his tarp awning info. I’ve made two now for my 2017 320S, a 8’x10’ tarp then a 10’x12’ tarp. I’ve modified his original and am happy with it. 
Re: Should we re-sanitize our plumbing?
I would just fill and go. We drink our tank water by the way.
Re: Should we re-sanitize our plumbing?
Personally, I only sanitize in the spring after dewinterizing. I use my camper about every two weeks from mid May to early October and drain my fresh water tank (and Alde tank) after each trip.
Re: Enhanced Security Measures After Former T@B Theft
For anyone more technically oriented there is a tracking option with no monthly/annual fees. Particle.io sells a developer evaluation tracker board https://store.particle.io/collections/all-products/products/tracker-som-evaluation-kit-with-ethersim which includes a SIM card, free monthly data allocation, and access to their full asset tracking suite of online tools. You can do some interesting things with it depending how much you want to get into the hardware and software aspects of it.
Re: Enhanced Security Measures After Former T@B Theft
I've considered a trail cam just so I can watch the critters romping around the T@B parked on my friend's back 40, but I think that if you want to be notified if the trailer moves, a GPS tracker is a better option. I've had a Spot Trace for about four years and as @SLJ mentioned, it notifies me whenever the trailer moves. A cellular-based tracker is cheaper, but won't help you if the T@B is out of cell range. I initially got it so my family can track me down if I go missing.SolidCamper said:I love this thread with all these ideas- but so painful to see that photo of how they up-ended your new TAB. Sickening !I have my own arsenal of anti theft devices but have learned from you all about things that I never thought of- such as locking the chains.I was considering buying a battery powered 4G camera and mounting it on the trailer exterior. The idea is that I could leave the trailer somewhere and be notified of movement noise etc. Has anyone done this ? Which brand did you use ? Thanks.
My only gripe with SPOT is that the annual subscription fee jumps from about $150 in the first year to $225 in later years.
If anyone decides to buy a SPOT and you want to get $30 off the annual service, You can fill out the refer-a-friend form with my info and we both get the $30.
Re: Solar Reflective Window Coverings
@maxwellllll FWIW, I drove home last week at highway speed with my roof vent open about a half inch because I forgot all about it when I was packing up. No issues at all, it never moved more open or closed.maxwellllll said:I also considered cracking the main roof vent 1/4" or so, but just wasn't sure if that was safe or not.
Re: BougeRV airconditioner?
This is what I've been thinking about. I have two problems to solve: AC noise/vibration reduction and battery powered AC use while boondocking. I'd have to make a custom window closer/ adapter. I know... plenty of issues with this solution!
