@@fredfleming8905 a Wyze cam needs any internet connection, whether a cellular or WiFi to router.

Boy, not very common at all! In all the places across the states over 6 years, this is the only place I’ve seen one.

@@brandonknight1645 absolutely, once you’ve got enough dirt. But you’ll find, as I have, that the periods in between are vastly longer and the ease of cleaning is beyond measure.

You are absolutely correct, the 30A outlets need to be 180º out of phase. Using these adapters do pose risk if the campground pedestals are not wired correctly. This is why I insist on knowing my pedestal and using the EMS protection box at all times.

@@chimeziedickson5141 it’s just because you have the meter clamped the reverse way. Just flip it over. 👍

@@robh063 thanks for watching. Sanitizing is pretty straight forward; OTG has already made a good video on the procedure: th-cam.com/video/pp2rZuABbDE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ubU7EUP0_Kn9dUnk

@@RVSquaredSteve That's the video I followed. I drained the water but when I tried to add the sanitzer that was mixed up in a container it was so foamy I couldn't get it to go in the tank.

@@MaherHannamagproperties thank you for watching and commenting!

I really appreciate your kind words and support! Thank you!!

You're welcome, I'm glad it helped!

Thank you for watching!

Thanks for watching Hanna. Here’s the link for the stand. I’ll put it in the Description as well. amzn.to/3YwNEmj

No, but it would certainly help. I've tinted windshields on my vehicles, but all in all, I don't like even the slightest tinting as well as the slight haze you get even with best film out there. My two trucks have it, and...given the choice...I'd prefer using shades when parked and running no tint for the BEST clarity especially at night.

@@RVSquaredSteve I have 70% on my car and I love it. Also, you mentioned that you ceramic coated your Coach, does that include the roof? Travel safe.

@@mikepjam8133 “car” vs Coach can be a big difference. Even with Air80, visually clarify and artifacts from polarizing can be hard to deal with. My roof is not ceramic coated.

@@AGreatImage thank you for your comment, but you are confused so let me help you understand better. First, slide operation is based upon the manufacturer which is VALID and Newell follows their guidelines. VALID does NOT want the coach leveled prior to slide ops since keeping the leveling system in the Travel mode provides continuous balance-leveling to account for the slide weight as it extends or retracts. If you were to level the coach in the Auto mode, the system will go into a sleep mode and will only periodically check for level; not preferred by VALID. And lastly, no, a site does NOT at all have to be level to start with. The thing you must understand is that a Newell is 60k pounds and no “jack” system will handle that weight. Therefore, the coach is leveled using the airbags and typically won’t have the amount of travel a jack would provide. That’s the only consideration “if” a site is grossly out of level; but has never restricted us from using our slides. I hope this helps you better understand.

@@mikepjam8133 yes, but as with all things, labor rates and parts have driven the cost upwards of $4500+ as of this year (2024).

Thank you!

Hey there Tom! Thanks for watching, the compliment, and commenting! It's just one of those "easiest" things to do, yet seems to pose so many questions. As you know, it's actually not only easy, but I kinda think it's better on the entire coach's inverters and electronics if they can be powered down. Though commonplace with other brands, Newell has resisted recommending it for the "normal" user-base.

My Newell has two 120v compressors upfront. Why wouldn’t Newell have one 120v and a 12v instead just to satisfy this purpose?

@stafcurtis1 Thanks for the comment/question! All (newer model) Newells have dual 120v compressors for full redundancy. These compressors are workhorses that 12 volt models couldn’t handle. Even one of the best VIAIR PRO compressors wouldn’t have the capacity to keep up with even a minor leak, which pretty much every Newell will have. It’s not like an Aux water pump; if a compressor can’t keep up, you’ll not have enough volume and pressure to even allow the compressor to cycle. So, if there were ever a failure of the “Main 120v”, you’d be in trouble. Finally, again, one benefit of the “shop air” inlet is that you CAN fully shut the coach down on not only the Inverters, but the 12 volt house as well. So, there’d be no 12 volt power.

My 02 has exactly that. One 12v and one 120v.

@@nevilleabraham4318 thank you for watching and commenting! As with so many things, the pricing for an annual service has gone up dramatically since the time of this video. But, as you say, you have to do it now or you’ll pay in the long run…sometimes worse!

Thank you very much! This is a personal decision that is based upon upon my technical ability and desire for modern features. So, as much as I hate the concerns of DEF systems, it’s a fact you can’t get around if you don’t want the “aging” hassles of a coach that’s going to be 25 years old. In and of themselves, dealing with aging motor coaches and the problem with parts availabilities, they both have distinct disadvantages.

The ignornet can be cruel, indeed. I have no experience with the Active Air Dam, but it sounds like your Air Dam was NOT trimmed correctly to provide a relief cut around the plates. This cut should be ¾" x 3-5/8"; according to RoadMaster.

Yes, the plastic coupling is a double-female which, normally, would screw into the male threads of the tank’s outlet. But, since I’ve converted the entire system to quick-connects, the threads become reversed; hence putting the males into that double-female in order to make the correct connection into the outlet.

Very kind words, thank you very much!! I'm glad it helped you.

Wow, that was so thoughtful of you…I think you’re my FIRST super thanks! 🏆

@@alex-sd so glad this helped straighten things out for you! Thanks for letting me know.

You’re so welcome. Thank you for letting me know!

@@fitfifties yes…have heard about that! I’m also experimenting with Mineral oil tag forms a barrier. Still stains a bit though.

Awesome!

@@quegemo thank you. Glad it helped.

Great...go for it...no turn'n back!

Depends on the type you've used, how you've installed them, and the care given to the O-ring. The systems I build use an internal o-ring which I keep lubed, and seal all of my fittings and not had leaks for years over dozens of systems and fittings. Thank you.

@@RVSquaredSteve would love to know the brand you used. I ordered I thought mid grade but decent packs from Amazon. Most are new but especially out of the softener they drip some. I need to make it work otherwise it’s a much longer recharge and setup time. I’m also trying to find the right box to install attic this in the heated bay for winter so maybe Pex fittings. Idk yet. Loved the information.

Thank you for watching! For washing, yes, your can put the deionizer as the last component. Using DI to fill your tank, however, is expensive and will cause increased resin changing.

@@chriskendrick4737 the first stage will grab Iron for you. You’ll just have to change it out frequently. That’s the good advantage of a clear canister. Thank you for watching and your comment.

@@Transforming2024 no no. This adaptor is ONLY to bring two 30A supplies into a 50A. What you’re asking is to have a two 50A into single 50A and that is not in the scope of this video and would cause serious issues which is why that type of Dogbone isn’t made.

Thank You. I might have other questions. My wife and I are new at this and still learning and sometimes it’s a little overwhelming, but we are having fun.

@@Transforming2024 hang in there. It gets better!

Glad you liked it!

Thank YOU for watching and the compliment!

In certain aspects yes. However, if your coach isn't SilverLeaf based, then you'll not be able to run the telematics for remote monitoring.

@@RVSquaredSteve Thank you for the Reply Steve! I am not at all familiar with the technology aspect of these coaches and alot of it goes right over my head. I am sure my coach does not have a silver leaf based system however. All my controls are done through standard separate switches and nothing is integrated together. Remote monitoring would be nice, but A major goal for myself is to have all my coach controls for the lights, stereo, blinds, hot water heater, slides etc onto some kind of panel to condense the need for walking all over the coach and i would love to have multiple control panels that are able to control the same functions at different places in the coach.

@@skater506 feel free to chat me up and maybe we can conjure something up. Of course, a really brilliant collection of minds is on newellgurus.com. They are a creative bunch.

@@RVSquaredSteve I would love too, there is one other problem however..... My coach is a Travel Supreme, not a newell hahaha.

@@skater506 no problem whatsoever! These systems I build are 100% universal!!

@@bigrig. wonderful!! So glad it helped you!!

It varies slightly by location due to the amount of leasing and operating expenses. But, be prepared for around $120 per foot.

Well, thank you very much for that compliment!!

@@borgimplantdan you’re welcome and thank you for watching and commenting!

This is a great comment and the reason I took the time to produce this video, which should serve as a timeless reminder for all of us!

Thanks! Works so great.

No I do not. But I do assemble, test, and deliver full systems them for those who’d like to purchase.

Thank you! Yes, we discussed that. The surfaces I use Bugs N All on are all XPEL PFF, so it really doesn’t matter. But nonetheless, they didn’t feel it would harm the SENSHA ceramic.

@@RVSquaredSteve That's what I was wondering was about the ceramic.

Thank you for the compliments, Jim! You're absolutely correct about checking your slide tops for any debris!

Thank you, Jim! Yes, I use a pretty "lean" mixture, though, especially when using this low-end PW. Otherwise, I'd have 2 birthdays and an anniversary pass before getting all of it washed off! LOL

Great to hear!!! Thank you for responding to let me know.

👍

Thanks for watching and commenting! Yes, I get FULL flow with the .5 micron! I strongly encourage you to switch to that cartridge.

Yes, the Amprobe is designed to detect HVAC leaks.
