  1. Just to clarify, if plugged into a 30A service it will be necessary to monitor what is using power so not to have a brown out, and damage components.
  2. Well Mr. Butler you are one clever fellow, you did a stellar job solving that problem. Looks like it is held in place by gravity. My opening is on the side of the compartment so I would need to tweek your design some. I don't know why something similar isn't available at camping world or some other outlet. You should look into that.
  3. So if I plug my 50 A cord into a 30A adapter then into a 30A pedestal I will not have 2 30A 120VAC lines I will have 1 30A 120VAC and half the circuits in my unit will be dead. So I should avoid like the plague any space with no 50A service.
  4. The opening has a screw on cap to close opening when not in use. I find it hard to believe there are no products to close that opening when power cord is run through access.
  5. I am looking for a device that will block the 4" round hole in the power compartment when cord is run or install out side plug for 50A power.I can't find what I need on the interweb may be asking the wrong question. All I find is for dock lines and pig tails(What are tags)
  6. The Princess phone works with the wireless home phone plugs in like it would to a land line, Internet is additional cost wifi hotspot device . I had the At&T guy here to install DirectTV his cell was having problems with service,but the Homebase worked fine. I kept a princess phone around so that when we had a power outage, something that happens regularly here, I would still have phone service the princess phone got its power from the phone line. Like many people we no longer have a land line, and no longer pay their crazy high long distance charges. I believe Walmart has a wireless home phone on Verizon for $10. AT&T share holders must have loved your dad I think the Princess was the best selling phone of its day put a 50'cord and off you go,no need for a cradle.
  7. Jerry, I don't know if you are just fond of your Ford,but after all that trouble I am thinking I would trade for a "Pop and go" any number of Jeeps, small pickups or a small Land Rover. Pop the trans and TC in "N" and on your merry way.
  8. We have a home base device from AT&T it is a wireless phone with wireless Internet. The cost is $60 monthly for unlimited phone calls and 250G of 4G Internet we get an additional 200G because we have Direct TV normally I think the Internet is 50G for $40. The home base can go with you when you travel. My son was between cell providers and attached a princess phone to the base and took it with him in his car.
  9. It seem to me there far too many people that complain about their privacy can not wait to tell the world every time they take care of there own personal hygiene. My fathers' advice when it came to that was "Loose lips sink ships" Some one sank our ship.
  10. I found my Safari trek on https://www.rvtrader.com Do you know about http://www.trektraxs.com they have a safari market place and everybody owns a Safari of some kind.
  11. Coach step was taken over by this company there is a dealer contact on the web site https://www.lci1.com
  12. I bought a 1998 safari Trek 2830 the previous owner had 225/70R/19.5 Dynatrac ST995 AP RIB tires in aug 16 anyone know anything about these tires.
  13. What is the reason for the different pressure in different positions
  14. Does the inverter need to be reset when it is turned back on?The step switch is the step light switch. Turn the light on and it turns the step off.So I can leave the step extended while it is parked, a position it will be in until I find the reason for the gas smell when starting and the miss after it starts.The ignition overrides the step when turned to start.
  15. The unit is a 1998 Safari Trek 2830 with a Chevy P-30 chassis. I discovered (or was told)) don't remember, that the inverter has an on/off switch, after turning the switch off the switch in the kitchen worked and I turned the power off. I also turned the switch in the entry step area and have had no battery drain since.I understand there is a disconnect somewhere for the step so it can be shutoff while parked, so it doesn't need to cycle every time the door is opened or closed,haven't located it yet.
  16. If you have the paper work that came with the step it will show where to lube and what to use, when the chassis is serviced ask the shop to service the step. unless you want to see the underside of your unit.I am kind of hands on.
  17. When was the last it was serviced?
  18. That is my question as far as I am aware everything is off. The house batteries have been draining,it takes 2or3 days not enough power to start the generator. Engine battery is good, start engine charge house batteries ,then start generator to finish charging house batteries. So if the inverter is buzzing something is on and using power?
  19. I have a Freedom 10 inverter/charger I noticed it is buzzing. Does that mean something is using power, or is that normal.
  20. Thanks, I will locate the proper adapters and give it a try.
  21. I have a 1997 Safari Trek with a 50 amp power cord if I plug that into a 110 vac adapter plug that into the house power (my house not mh house)will it keep the mh house batteries charged. It is my understanding the generator power goes through the inverter to charge batteries and line power also goes through the inverter only difference is lower vac 120 v 240 or 241 what ever works
