    Online movie and book download sites

    I don't see any recent info posted on the best free or economical online sources for downloading books and movies to watch at a later time, possibly with no cell signal. Any recommendations on what the nomadic community is utilizing presently that may be helpful? Thanks!!!

    Outdoor yoga/living area

    Maybe a cheap piece of artificial grass over it would alleviate the UV issue.

    That's pretty cool! We have the tailgate on ours which is useful as a step and table.

    Thanks for that info. Do you have any photos? Have you actually made something like that?

    Outdoor yoga/living area

    You are correct. After 2 winters down in the SW deserts, it is inevitable that dirt and dust get everywhere. I guess the key is minimizing it and yes, using a dirt devil or something similar quite often. Which my other half does!

    Outdoor yoga/living area

    A problem for us too since we are in a truck camper. Maybe just a piece of plastic under the artificial grass. We just want to keep the dirt and dust off the area as much as possible. I know the grass is somewhat bulky. Trying to think of something more feasible that still works.

    Outdoor yoga/living area

    We also want to use the area as a floor under a clam shelter. My partner is a massage therapist and wants a protected area to do them in.

    Outdoor yoga/living area

    I am looking to set up an outside area approx. 8x8 to do yoga, have a place to set up chairs and table, ect. I am tired of trying to do yoga on the ground, especially in the desert. Any ideas? I was thinking of putting down an 8x8 piece of plywood, an 8x8 piece of artificial grass carpet, then...

    Adding portable panel to existing system

    I just purchased a Dokia portable 100 watt solar panel with a controller attached. I am adding it to a permanent 12V system on an as-needed basis, supplementing my existing power from 310 watts (existing panel on the roof) to 410. I have a Victron 30amp controller, a 2000w inverter and 2 Battle...

    Yes, the Adirondacks can get a wee bit "chilly"!

    North East Gatherings?

    I am from the Albany, NY area originally, but travel extensively throughout the West now. Funny nobody mentions the largest park in the lower 48 states that is in NY, the Adirondack Park. I always kind of wondered why more people don't think about it for remote camping possibilities. Plus, it is...

    Dometic Stove problem

    Thanks Brian. They do stick up into the burner. I tried cleaning and brushing it, but still no help. Do you have to disconnect the whole thing or just one side of it (and if so, which side, the knob or the burner?). Thanks again!

    Dometic Stove problem

    Thanks for finding that. Dometic certainly does not make it easy to find info in the US, even though the stoves are fairly common here. Seems likely it is a thermocouple, but to get at it the whole stove has to be removed. Uggg! And the only way to really to make sure it is would be to remove...

    Dometic Stove problem

    If I put something against the knob, it will stay on. It is only when I release it that it goes out. Does that sound like it could still be the thermocouple? I will take a look and see if maybe it became loose or disconnected too. Thanks for the reply!

    Dometic Stove problem

    I called Dometic first, and they told me they honestly could not trouble shoot it for me. Recommended a service professional. By the time I pay for that, I may as well buy a new stove. I am trying to see what is on Youtube or other forums such as RVnet.

    Dometic Stove problem

    I have an issue with a common stovetop 2 burner Dometic stove. It is a model # 2BR-1066050. One burner works fine, the other one does not stay lit after holding the knob in for 10-20 seconds as recommended. It is a manual ignite and it is getting ample propane. Anyone else had this issue and how...
