Re: Torklift battery box initial review
I installed mine late last week after returning from an 850 mile excursion with my 1985. I agree with your review 100%, including the part that "I'm very happy with it". I like it because everything goes into the box and there is plenty of room, and it only needs one function to unlock it versus undoing the box straps. I purchased the box designed for two six volt batteries even though I'm running two group 24's. I also replaced the locks (plural because I also own the propane lock system,...

Re: Northern CA LOA rally - 1/17/14 to 1/19/14 (1/20 for some)
Sites 28 & 29 are right next to each other and in an open area. The table at site 29 also is not chained down so we may be able to move it if needed. Between the two fire pits in that area we should be good or if we move the table we could probably get around the one in site 29.

B-D RV Battery Lock (12-volt)

TST TPMS New and Improved Wide Screen Color Monitor
I just received my TST Wide Screen color monitor yesterday and got it up and running on the bench. Wow! The display is real nice with larger digits and added color. However, I do have a few issues I'd like to report. The new monitor is now powered by a 5 volt mini plug just like what one uses for their smart phone (Android, not Apple). This presents a challenge as I had the previous 12 volt monochrome monitor's power cord hard wired into the overhead console in my Tundra which was a nice...

Re: Clam Six Pack 1660 Mag Screen Tent (or the Worlds easiest/fastest screen room)
We have used ours a few times and it's great for keeping out bugs but we have to use a fan inside to move the air around, it doesn't allow much air movement. 100% a big thumbs up for ease of set up and take down. We store it in the TT during travel and then sit it on the back bumper until I'm ready to set it up.

Missed part of the question, the Clam is a piece of cake for one (short) person to take down. My only suggestion would be to watch a couple of youtube videos to see how it's done (the first move is crucial)

Re: Clam Six Pack 1660 Mag Screen Tent (or the Worlds easiest/fastest screen room)
Second time appears to be charm. The replacement tent came with the box intact. We took it out today and opened it in less than two minutes. It only took that long because we opened it in our living room and it filled up the room. Everything seems to be in order, and this tent is just what we were looking for. It's beyond me why the manufacturer couldn't send us a non-defective tent the first time (it was obvious the first tent was defective the moment we tried to set it up). That's...

Agree it is heavier and bulkier than others, but won't trade it for any of them. It takes no time to set up as long as you get the first move Our first time was close to divorce and a neighbor offered t o help then retreated to safety. Once we watched the video it took less than2 min, now I make sure to check out the you-tube if we haven't used it in a while . Add a couple of panels and you have shade, warmth or privacy. Would purchase again in a heart beat.

Re: Absolutely most handy tool in my tool box
It will not siphon uphill. Like any siphon, it needs to be lower than liquid being siphoned. I used it with a 7 gal water container shown here when my back went out and I could not lift it. I use it all the time to empty a 55 gal drum of water into my cabin cistern in about 10 minutes. when I draw water out of the stream, I find a place that is at least level with the water and have no problems pulling it. I have also used it to siphon gasoline from my truck to a container for my lawn mower.

Re: king VQ4500 Tailgater for Dish Network with Wally Recevier
I have the same dish but the older receiver. Rain kills mine. We use it at home as well. We just put the dish on the patio and move the receiver inside. My biggest complaint is rain. Maybe the new Wally receiver solved this. How long have you been using this setup and have you watched tv during rain?

Re: king VQ4500 Tailgater for Dish Network with Wally Recevier
I'm just asking... but wouldn't this be more of an antenna (dish) issue than a receiver issue? Joe

I think Joe is right. CORBIN have you checked the casing on your Tailgater for cracks or leaks? Do you have the rounded top Tailgater or the diamond shaped?
