We've been using the Good Sam GPS for over a month now. Haven't used it yet for an RV trip (not before April of this year), but we did take it with us to Atlanta, GA over Christmas. So far, we're very pleased with it. We've been configuring it for the points of interest (gas stations, restaurants, etc.) we want it to display while we're on the road. We've used the wi-fi feature to connect through my cell phone and get real-time weather reports and forecasts, which is nice. We've also used...

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...

In an earlier post, I included the Traeger Camp Grill in a list of what to pack when headed out. I received an inquiry about it and thought it might be a good product to add to the Product Reviews page.

This is a Pellet Grill that will do everything asked of it. I loved my full size so much, I...

We use the factory solar controller and/or the factory PD-4050 controller for normal charging, and a Vector 1089A digital battery charger for equalization. Peak voltage in that mode is 16.2, temperature compensated.

Brian, when you equalize, do you disconnect the battery and Vector charger from the trailer electrical system to prevent the loads and charge controller from seeing 16.2 volts?

Lets see 399.00 + 85.00 + 149.00 + tax YIKS expensive. RV 760 (just local trips so far) rate it 10/10 ecoroute (7/10) - it won't do what I purchased it to do - ie: you can't use E.R. while in RV mode - Garmin "really" what where you thinking...

We decided to give the Good Sam RV GPS a try...powered by Rand McNally (RVND 7725 LM).  Found that if we bought it online, we got it for $50 less than in the store (as advertised in the Good Sam monthly sales brochure). Received it Friday,...
