    DIY Solar Install

    The flooded lead/acid batteries that came with my trailer were starting to show signs of age so it’s the perfect excuse to change over to LiFepo4 batteries. Something I have wanted to do since the trailer was new. The goal: More Amp Hours, long/flat discharge curve, less weight and use...

    Fresh New Mod.

    I had a few controls I wanted to add in the control cabinet of my new Sundance. Only problem is that Heartland constructed the control cabinet in such a way that in order to get to the wiring behind it, you have to remove the bottom cabinet molding and then the bottom panel of the cabinet...

    Do I buy a new RAM 2500 or not.

    I have a question I would like to put out there to the collective consciousness. My RV is a Sundance 245RL. Weight around 7K lbs. I am considering new tow vehicle of a 2500 Dodge RAM with factory installed 5th wheel prep. The concern I have is the height of the truck bed. It’s...

    It's been a long time comming.

    For some time I have intended to create a single place to view most of my mods. I finally got it together and have posted it as part of my signature. We are currently at the rally in Las Vegas in site 325 if anyone here is interested in things that I have done. You can see them here too.

    Taking the weight off the tires during winter storage.

    I have Ground Control 3.0 on my Sundance. After storing over winter I took it out last weekend. After leveling it up in my driveway, with two of the wheels slightly off the ground, I noticed that the tires had a slight, but definite, flat spot. So I am thinking that it might be best to use...

    And todays Mod is....

    Today I finished a mod I have been thinking about for a while. As with many my peepers don't work as good as they used to, so today I finished installing a light in the control cabinet. Wasn't much really, just a cabinet door switch and an LED license plate light. I used a license plate light...

    After a few obstacles, the Ground Control 3.0 is finally installed.

    I’ll apologize in advance for the length of this post, but this turned into quite a project. I have wanted to add Ground Control to my coach for some time, but there were a number of issues I had to deal with. Some were known in advance, some were a surprise. The biggest...

    Attaching exterior LED lighting.

    Hi all, I am planning on adding an LED light strip to the exterior of my Sundance just below the awning. I didn't want to attach the bare strip to the side of the coach as I favor a more finished look. I have acquired an aluminum channel that will accept the LED strip. I am wondering if...

    Using the Refer on battery power.

    After over 30 years in our old trusty tent trailer, we finally made the jump grander digs. We found a very gently used 2011 Sundance 245 RL 5th wheel. As I have been trying to get up to speed on the on-board systems that are new to me I have come across a question I hope someone can help with...
