B-D RV Battery Lock: http://www.b-drvbatterylock.com/   Even though I/we have never ever had an issue with a battery "walking away" in the 15+ years that we have been trailer camping I have been intrigued whenever I would see this simple battery...

We are due to get our new Lance 1995 a few days before this event. Newbies. What a way to get started! It was a no brainer...plus it's my birthday. My husband is off the hook, new TT, vacation, concert, air show and meeting new friends. He's already done his shopping. We didn't know what SWAG was either?!! Really excited.

I absolutely love my iball. I've had a few trailer hook-up aids, but this is by far the best. I have been using it for about 1-1/2 years and trailer hookup, for me, is a lot easier than getting directions from a partner, as everyone thinks left and right differently, especially with hand signals. When the 9 volt battery starts getting a little low, there tends to be a bit of static, but a quick battery change remedies the static condition. If anyone at the Lone Pine Rally wants to try it,...

And for me it's an even smaller weight addition - only 4.8 lbs. heavier than my Interstate group 29 (101 AH) and only 20.6 lbs. heavier than my Interstate group 24 (81 AH). *Group 29 for dry camping. Group 24 for hook-up camping such as rally's/rallies. Trojan really packs in those AH!

A good choice! Is the 66-70 lb weight ever an issue being too much for one person to handle alone? The SCS225 battery is more of a marine battery, meaning it is designed to deliver high amps. Do you know how your 30xhs bulk, float, and equalize voltages compare to what your converter/charger puts out, or your solar charger if you have one?

Red, I am in the process of buying the same battery and a battery box. According to specs, t he atwood box you use is about 1/10 of an inch shorter in length than this battery, so I was going to buy a larger box, that has a bit too much extra room, and I am concerned it might not fit in the 1575 mounting area due to more width (I dont have my trailer yet so cant measure it). Is it a very tight fit lengthwise, perhaps a concern, or perhaps limiting tthe necessary ventilation?

I thought I already replied but I'm looking and don't see it.... Sorry for the delay. These are non-electic (hook-up) sites. The camp ground has a number of locations within the camp ground to fill up with potable water so that's nice and on the way out there is a dump site for $7.... Generators are allowed, we carry one just in case but reply on our solar panels, love the solar panels! Each site has a paved pad, a picnic table, a grill and fire pit. If we don't get a good amount of rain...

I just saw this. Was it ever posted in the discussion? Wish I could have made it but it's only a week apart from the annual SCIO. I've been trying for the past 3 years to have someone do a GTG who lives in CO. All I got was places to camp but no one wanted to set it up. Thank you Rob for doing this. My U.S. map looks like it's missing a tooth and it's CO. I'm planning on a trip there this year so I'll keep in touch, maybe we can hook up since you know the places....

Bummer, things always come up when you least expect it. My wife and I go up every month for about 5 days starting on this trip in June. It’s how we beat the heat in Phoenix... i’ll Post our next trip this weekend. Since it is so close to the valley the sites get booked up quickly. Fall could be a really nice trip with the colores changing. These was someone who was coming up and didn’t have a reservation. I would hook up with them and see if they can reserve it just after you cancel. Think...

Wow, I’m sitting here on the last night of the Woods Canyon Lake trip and thinking I don’t want to go back the the valley. Met some truly great people, laughed a lot, got a lot of photos to be posed here. Thanks to everyone that made the trip. Without all of you the memories wouldn’t be the same. We had a few windy days but the temps at night were great and not too hot during the day. Loved, loved, loved the 6pm happy hour! What a great time. I can now put another birthday in the logbook as...

Picked up one of these today - http://www.trojanbattery.com/product/30xhs/ With our 1575 and the way that we load it (tongue-mounted bike rack with 3 bikes & 7.5 gallon/30 lb. LP tank) we run with a single battery on the tongue. *We dry camp and have solar &/or generator's depending upon the trip so a single battery has worked well for us for almost 16 years now. Through my work I accrue points towards purchases at certain places. One of them being Battery Systems (where I only had 4...

Found this electric tongue jack cover on Amazon that is really nice! http://a.co/d/hR7cekJ A little more expensive at $39.99 but has windows to see the level, switches and light. Also has trailer chain hook loops and a pouch to put the trailer wire harness into. Can also be locked to the jack with a padlock. Much nicer than a Home Depot bucket and the look of this is much better than the regular plastic vinyl bag that is just stuck on top. They say not to tow with it on, but that is because...

You're probably right, I just remember if you made a hook shot from out in court and it swished through. You would lift your hands up and, go nothin but air, maybe that was being sarcastic.

I thought I would make a list of stuff, products that have worked well for us. Some of the items are fan favorites, tried and true and widely used and accepted across the LOA spectrum of members. Others are little known, sleeper products if you will. Some have been passionately debated and others, not so much. Hope this list can be of use to somebody. To start things off simple, toilet paper. White Cloud Green Earth available at Wal Mart. Broke down more quickly than every other TP I tested,...
