Does anyone have experience with a Thermoelectric REFRIGERATOR Koolatron-AC-DC-Heat-Pipe-Fridge-KCR40B-KOO1115 with Temperature Control? If so, how does your battery bank hold up after the sun goes down and solar is no longer working? I know is it similar to the older Coleman 12v cooler but this...

Some of you are aware of the 2004 Sprinter I have lived in off and on for the past 11 years. The interior is getting worn and I want something different. I bought the little Sprinter new in 2004 and have done 3 complete redos (this will be 4) of the interior. I tore everything out last weekend...
The time has come for me to move back into my Sprinter van. I'm transferring to the Tucson/Green Valley area. Does anyone have a good parking area? Any ideas about how to keep cool in the summer desert heat. I still have my Honda generator and airconditioner in the van but not sure if I can use...
I decided to try bubble wrap on my windows this past winter. It was the worse winter I have ever seen and bubble wrap worked well up here on the mountain.
Those of you looking for a van should consider a Sprinter. It gives you living space and fuel economy.<br>I bought my Sprinter new in 2004. It now has 257,000 miles on it and is still going strong. In the life of this van so far I have spent less than $2,500 in repair parts. I'm on my third set...
Ladies it has been a very cold, snowy winter in southwestern New Mexico. I will be very glad when it is over. I guess the depressing part is that I'm only 100 miles from the warm Arizona desert. The good part about where I'm staying is the summers are cool and beautiful. Right now I'm really...
For the past few months I have parked my Sprinter van. I decided to try RV living on the mountain in New Mexico. I have owned this 31 foot travel trailer since 1990. During my years of van dwelling the travel trailer was parked on the farm. <br /><br />Currently I have the trailer parked on a...

A few years back I did some van dwelling from Tennessee to the east coast.<br />I didn't find many good parking stops. If you have had good experiences between Nashville and the east coast please share them.<br /><br />Van Girl
I have located this company in Tucson that makes 12 volt coolers for use with solar systems. I know of a guy that mounted one on his motorhome and had custom duck work to pipe it into a roof vent. http://www.macandchris.com/AirConditioning.htm) In the picture he needs to paint it but looks good...
I see many of you are looking for ways to get better WiFi communications. I setup and configure outdoor wifi MESH systems for my job. We have to cover a 3 mi. diameter with WiFi (yes I said 3 miles). <br /><br />I will share with you what I use on my van. I have an external 8dbi antenna mounted...
I want to share this information with the cooks. I friend told me about some milk with a brand name of Parmalat (http://www.parmalat.com/en/products_brands/our_products/). Best tip I have gotten in a long time. I keep it in my pantry at all times. It comes in one quart boxes and has a shelf life...
