How big is the TV?

Believe it or not the two single boxes will be better in the long run because you can actually pick them up and keep them in the box over winter storage. I had a double and it was much easier to store them when I switched to singles because it didn’t involve lifting 2 6v at once or taking out the batteries then the box then repeating.

I just lifted the entire box, it was heavy as hell though!

I screwed my boxes down. No lifting those up without removing the batteries anyway.

Was going to post a FS thread but i figured this would get more attention.

I have a couple things i am getting rid of.

- 2 x 6v Napa deep cycles. They read good on the multimeter but were showing their age (3 years) when i pulled them.
- 3gpm diaphram pump
- Shurflo Pulsation Dampner
- Waste water hose (Nice vinyl one, not the free cheapy)

She's a beauty. Some similar touches to my old Jayco.

How much for that stuff? I'd be interested.

yep, this, but i also have my batteries inside my basement storage so its more difficult to steal, and i don't remove them, i just hook up an intelligent charger/maintainer all winter because i store at my brother's acreage.

Gotta get a new BBQ after my current one is essentially a flamethrower since the regulator doesn't work anymore.. Any suggestions (BBQ specifically, not a 'grill')?

if you have a propane "quick connect" on your trailer you could just get a hose and remove the regulator since at the quick connect its already low pressure because its regulated by the trailer's

For pure bbq, Coleman roadtrip

[spike98]

This is what I do. I run a Webber but the concept is the same for any lpg bbq.

So I think I need a new battery. Is agm where the best value is? I think 3 years would be a good enough life.

You have room for two 6v golf cart batteries? Generally that's the sweet spot for price vs amp-hours capacity, with great durability.

This is where its at. Get them from costco. They are priced well and costco will take a return on them pretty much forever.

Where is the best place to buy an RV short queen foam mattress? I was thinking maybe get a topper or a new mattress all together. Thought about buying a regular queen and just cutting the foam since they are cheaper then the RV short queen.

[dirtsniffer]

the more you know. I just bought a queen memory foam topper from costco. figured it would fit as is. thanks for the headsup.
