happycampa

G'Day! We just bought a 2021 Tab 320 S (not boondock). Looking for any things you wished you remembered to add to your trailer! We are getting ours from the dealer and hitting the road direct without time to think! Appreciate any advice to us newbies. Thank you!

A general battery FAQ.  A little oldish, but plenty of good info on the bafflegab around batteries.  "I Went below 50 percent SOC on my AGM" sort of talk. https://www.solar-electric.com/learning-center/deep-cycle-battery-faq.html

Not my idea, but I read on this forum, that if you are picking up your T@B and do not live close to your dealer or in your case if you are "hitting the road direct without time to think!" That you camp a night close by the dealership to "shake down" your T@B.

The following day have an appoint set with the dealer to address anything that comes up on your "shake down" night of camping.  You can always cancel the appointment if nothing major comes up.

Good luck on your maiden trip, it sounds very exciting!

@happycampa - if you are a complete novice, @USSBird has good advice.  Find somewhere close to the dealer to basically “driveway camp” and get your feet wet.  It would help us to know what essentials you have purchased.
