New member “Rex F.” I live in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I pull a 2018 Coachman, Apex Nano. 20’. I have modified it with a roll up shower door instead of that stupid curtain. Added a TV. Upgraded the Tires first thing. Have 2 spares on the back, instead of 1.
In the process now of installing 2 lithium batteries with a marine cut off switch. Has several positions, # 1 battery, #2 battery, Both batteries, and Off. The marine type switch works really good. Have used it in the past.
I have a 100 watt portable Solar panel to charge the batteries. I have a 2,000 watt inverter and can plug it into the main plug on the side of trailer, and and run the AC in the Trailer ( not the AC unit). Put in the 712 with the shunt, so I can see the battery condition inside the trailer. Got a really nice whole trailer cover that protects it really good.
Still improving as I go along. Will probably increase solar panels in the future. May leave it as is and sell in in a couple of years. Not getting any younger. Still worth a good amount.
Leave your camping site, in better condition than you found it.
Stay Safe out there !!!!
Cheers,
Rex
