  1. Forming a business in Texas, there are several ways. As a Texas business owner, both from prior to our RV life and still, currently, as full-time RVers, I'll tell you it's not very difficult. You can use something like LegalZoom if you want to pay a little extra and have them manage it all. Otherwise, it's just a matter of filling out the forms. For small biz, I suggest LLC, but your scenario may be different. You can find the forms here: https://www.sos.state.tx.us/corp/forms_boc.shtml Just a note, too, you'll need to file with the Texas Comptroller each year saying "I didn't make over a million dollars" basically (unless you did). There are certainly more tax implications, requirements, etc. but these are the basics to get you going. Disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer, accountant, tax person, none of those things. Please utilize your best resources to protect yourself. Good luck!
  2. Obvious question: Have you checked all the fuses? Secondly, have you checked the camera's physical wiring? Likely a multi-wire plug, something could've come loose, like a red power wire or black ground wire.
  3. Ours is either enabled via a digital control panel (annoying), or outside by the water connections and leveling jack controls. I have a perma-sticky-note that says "Turn Off the Water Pump". Lifting the jacks is the last thing we do, and I don't want to forget. All that to say: definitely turn it off while you're in motion! While boondocking, it's fine. If you're going to leave for the day, not a bad idea to turn it off. If a leak were to happen or something go nutso, at least you wouldn't flood your rig or the bays.
  4. Just add a dab of removable silicon or tape over it?
  5. If you're worried about the air conditioners, add AC Soft Starts to them, then you never have to worry about that aspect. We have a big ol' Momentum (with 3 AC's, not that we ever run all three). With our 400 amp-hours of lithium batteries, our inbuilt Onan 5500 does a good job of charging us up in a couple of hours.
  6. Sounds almost like a voltage issue.
  7. You could start by seeing if they will accept your notarized document (you kept a copy, right?) that you had to provide to Escapees for being a mail agent. We have Progressive for everything, received no guff. That being said, however, we were already Texas residents, and already had Progressive insurance, so that might've removed that obstacle before we even knew it might exist.
  8. Watching. I don't know of anything like. My Pepwave has both AT&T and Verizon chips, but you can't "join" them. (It's partly about the outbound IP address, it would constantly switch.) There's "Speedfusion Bonding", but that's just some place in the cloud making sure you have connectivity, but you are still relegated to a single cell network speed, really. Starlink has been good. It's getting swamped here at Winter Blast in Lake Havasu, and going to get worse because of all the non-RV'ers coming in, using up the AT&T (that's better than Verizon at the moment). I had to get the Starlink out this morning and get it fired up.
  9. I would, for me personally, be concerned about the difference in the "wiggle room", I call it, for the weight. For example, if the 7500 gross is already at 7200 lbs as built.... you have only 300 pounds wiggle room. If the 7000 gross is at 6200 as built, you have 800 pounds wiggle room. When you start adding the weight of fresh water, waste water, canned goods, etc.... I'd rather have the extra load ability. Again, that's just how *I* feel. Not everyone might feel the same way. And of course there's the tow vehicles ability to consider, too...
  10. I would take this question to a blog like Hackaday.com. Those folks are geniuses when it comes to electronics.
  11. Post them....where? Not sure it answers your question, but when we have meetings and such, we always put the time zone on the Google Calendar entries. That way, when we change our computers to a new time zone, the time in the calendar is correctly reflected.
  12. Yeah, I second the spray foam idea, but be sure to tape over the latching mechanisms! It doesn't have to be 100% perfect, I wouldn't think.
  13. Is.... is that a full array of solar covering an entire rig? Or is that on a building?
