  1. There is a bolt in center of springs. If it is broken it will shift.
  2. Yes, it is a big one. Some one mentioned earlier about a fantastic fan in place of it. They just don't realize the size these are
  3. There is a ton of info on this forum. No need here for a redo. These batteries don't degrade like lead acid. Totally different animal. Also the Chevy Volt is a hybrid. The batteries are barely used. They literally have thousands of cycles. Also lead acid can't be pulled down much without ruining them. 30% can damage them. Lithium can be pulled down 70-80%. You get much more use out of it with less charge time. There is no float charge with Lithium. Bulk charge. Set a minimum and maximum at high charge rate. Done in quick order. Lead acid has 3 stage charging. Takes long time to reach full charge. Has a float cycle to achieve this. I am going to buy a complete Volt battery for my camper. 18KW

  5. I was referring to the "The 12 volt side of life" article. Not you. If I needed a battery, would advise to look up Chevy volt batteries. Can find them separated and 12v too. Just need a modern charging system that's adjustable.
  6. He doesn't address lithium though. Great info on everything but.
  7. I'm back on Gladewater tx to work at refinery in Tyler. Be here for about a month. Sure was warmer in Baytown
  8. We are in Baytown TX for sometime in the first of year. Be then when work starts back. At Galveston Bay RV Resort
  9. My skylight is rather large. 2 fantastics might fill hole. I want roof flat there though
  10. Not really. Build frame inside, plywood, luan, roof , etherbond edges.
  11. Never use our fantastic fan
  12. You don't think the steam would cause problems?
  13. This is interesting. I'm surprised how many like a skylight. Know if I custom ordered one I would delete it.
  14. See I have to remove it and repair area. Also would rather have it flat here for solar panels later. Be simpler just to board up.
  15. Height not an issues with our Teton. Have no intention of trading it in. Keeper.
  16. See a lot of forums about leaks around skylights. That my problem. Usually damage is done once you see a spot on ceiling. Yes, it supplies light for showering. Most of my showers are at night and I see fine. They have no insulation there so they are hot in summer and cold in winter.
  17. I need to do some repair in the skylight area. Considering doing away with it. Really don't see a benefit keeping it. What you thoughts.
  18. Does this work with the brass DOT fittings? I just been buying new ones. they are a little pricey. Understand a manifold though. need to practice on something.
  19. I wouldn't go with dark colors. Look good but heat is a problem and don't need to add to it.
  20. This is what I intend to do in the next few years. Decals pealing, caps dull. Very nice Teton and feel it is worth it.

    Bobtail mileage

    I seem to buy less fuel with the Freightshaker. $100 goes further that the Chevy did. So I can't complain. Now bobtail the Chevy wins but not by a lot. Short trips, town, it burned a lot of fuel.
