Our Elkridge E22 5'r is at the lower end of the GVWR(9,900#). With that said I felt that the Towmax tires that came with it new would be OK. Well, so much for my opinion as I joined the Blowmax club this week. I took the blown tire to our local tire shop and asked the owner for his input on what...

If that is the case, you probably will also want to ditch your state license plate:angel: Spoken by a transplant from the Mojave Desert in 1960. Wear your colors............we won't be offended. Just leave lots of money and don't stay too long.........only kidding.

Technically it isn't to the camper, but an accessory of the camper. I built a EU Quiet Box for our EU2000i. See and hear on my Flicker account. For some reason it won't play on Google Chrome(but will in "incognito" window), but will play on Mozilla Firefox and MS Internet Explorer. EU2000i au...

We do have the outside "camp kitchen" and use it frequently...................but not as a kitchen. I call it a fish cleaning station. If the outside fridge was propane it would be a major improvement as we primarily dry camp with no electric hookup. Have never used the outside microwave.

I think the Prowler "P" series and Elkridge "E" series Fifth Wheels are pretty much the same. We have been very happy with our Elkridge E22 which is the next size down from the 255 models.

I bought the Ming's 1156/1141 Green Long Life 330 Lumens LED Bulbs. So far in over four years of use not a single one has failed. Just for clarification these are not for the RV taillight or sidemarker bulbs.

No problems with the frame on our Elkridge E22 Fifth Wheel in the 5 years we have owned it. Very few problems overall.

Mods are fun! I think most RV owners that are so inclined will go for it. This is what we have done: Replaced kitchen sink faucet, bathroom sink faucet, camp kitchen sink faucet. Replaced OEM mattress with a memory foam mattress. Installed a direct coax for satellite TV. Replaced all slam...

Wife's hair dryer. Heat up the decal and peel off. You can use WD-40 for any adhesive residue that might remain. Then a fresh coating of wax over where you removed the decal.

Do you have an outside camp-kitchen with a second microwave? If so there is a light type on/off switch that controls the use of either the inside or outside microwave. This is to keep someone from running both microwaves at the same time..............too much electricity for the circuit.

This also works for me.

Not only can I talk, I can also keyboard:p

And don't forget the brass connector's(T's) between pipe runs. They are the most likely to fail due to freezing before the Pex will. Our Elkridge does not have an enclosed underbelly and the first year of use I did have some water pipes freeze while camping when the outside temp was in the lower...

Easiest option is the Resmed #36970 DC/DC Converter. http://www.resmed.com/us/dam/documents/products/accessory/air-solutions-series/user-guide/378402r2_air10-s9-dc-converter-90w_user-guide_glo_eng.pdf

More questions for you Sweenja1: What make and model of CPAP machines? Do you use and need a humidifier? Will your CPAP machines run directly off of DC power? I presume the two batteries you mention are for powering the 12V trailer system? I have two 12V batteries(besides the RV batteries)...

If you have not used a sink/drain, in time the water in the p-trap will evaporate and it will allow sewer smells to travel through the pipe. Discovered this at work in a bathroom that had a floor drain. Poured some water into the floor drain and voila, no more smell.

My experience with USPS has been vastly better. I just had a package delivered to me yesterday via USPS First Class Package Service that was accepted in the Phoenix, Arizona area on Tuesday afternoon at 4:44pm and delivered here(between Salem and Eugene, Oregon) on Thursday morning at 8:32am...

Had the same thing happen to a couple drawers in the 5r. Decided to reinforce the bottom of all the drawers with pieces of aluminum angle bar screwed into the heavier wood along the sides, front and back. No more problem.

Re: Lost keys Or just order and install a new door lock mechanism. It comes with two keys. Probably cheaper than a locksmith call. If the OP is locked out the the RV..............never mind!

Use your wife's toothbrush to clean between the blades:cool: Just don't tell her or let her catch you in the act! Or just take along an extra toothbrush.

Many discussions on here regarding the subject. Here is one. //heartlandowners.org/showthread.php/47039-Bathroom-faucet-change-out?highlight=bathroom+faucet Just use the search function for "bathroom faucet" to call them all up.

Joel: I use ours frequently.

5r is put away for the winter or I would take some photo's for you. The Jensen cable plugs into the back of the radio using the standard motorola dipole male push in connector as wb2nco shows in the post on 5/6/14. The other end of the Jensen cable has the male coax connector that I screwed into...

You can also purchase the cam locks from RV Locks and More that are the keyed the same as your Global Link entrance door lock. http://www.rvlocksandmore.com/Global-Link-and-Fastec-FIC-Brand-RV-Locks-and-Keys/CH-751-CK-330#.VMfujy6bW3w Model# CLB

We have had a LastingImpressionsFoam mattress in our Elkridge since May 2012. One of the best modifications/upgrades we have made. Sleeping in the 5r is great and I put a lot of nights every year in mine.

You should be able to get more than 6 hours of CPAP use off your RV battery. Many CPAP machines have the capability to run directly off of 12V with an optional power cord. You generally want a pure sine wave inverter for electronics like CPAP's which are more expensive than modified sine wave...

You could freeze a one gallon jug(or 1/2 gallon) of drinking water prior to your trip. Put in in the fridge just before traveling. Combined with the cold food in the refrigerator it should keep your food cold enough. Let it melt upon arrival and use for drinking water or re-freeze for the trip home.

I used that model of the Buddy Heater for a number of years and the only problem I had was keeping it lit. I discovered that it wanted the filter attached to run correctly even when using a hose that did not leach out oil. I eventually replaced it several years ago with an Olympian Wave-6 heater...

X2. If you don't have the flap you can use a piece of 0.093 Lexan plastic cut to size, painted white and then attached to solid wire(like a coathanger or welding rod) with JB Weld and duct tape did the job for me. Looks like the OEM, and those pins are not going to break.

Unless destination has water hookup, I always leave home with a full fresh water tank. Never a problem in over 20 years of RV travels.

I agree with here4now on the forum problem. I noticed the same issue/change within the past week. The URL for the "General" forum and "All Forums" is identical with it defaulting to the General forum upon first accessing the forums. General = //heartlandowners.org/forum.php All Forums =...

I installed this on all entry doors/windows as well as all baggage doors on our 5th wheel. http://www.harborfreight.com/six-sensor-wireless-home-alarm-94799.html

Thank you Dan! The screws appear to have fixed the issue.

Dan: Thank you for responding with the information. I read in the PDF document "Push new water valve into place until latches engage. If necessary, use supplied fasteners to secure water valve in place." and thought that I probably did not use the supplied fasteners. Went out to the 5r, and sure...

X2 - mine just recently exhibited the same delay in water flow. I had replaced the valve this past spring and probably used the original screws.

We replaced the original bathroom faucet and outside kitchen faucet with this one purchased from our local discount membership department store. Paid about $30 each for them. One problem was that the handle closest to the wall in the bathroom was too long and impacted against the wall prior to...

John: Congratulations on your new Elkridge! We also bought ours from Guaranty. I am even more impressed that they delivered yours to the Portland area. I see you have "tons of mods planned". If you want any suggestions, send me a PM. Mel

If you have the outside "camp kitchen" with a microwave the switch prevents both microwaves from being operated at the same time. Too much electricity for the wiring running both microwaves at once. Our Elkridge has just a two position switch. In the up position only the inside kitchen microwave...

To expand on what Kevin has indicated, the electrical draw also depends on the output air pressure setting of the CPAP machine. The higher the output pressure, the more electrical current draw. Without a humidifier my CPAP draws 1.13A at 6cmH2O while the draw is 2.12A at 20cmH2O With the...
