Trailamate jack
(Preview)
I have just serviced my jack to the letter of the law. It jacks up perfectly, and lowers ok with van pushing it down, however if I just want to push the shaft down by hand it is really stiff, almost impossible. Anyone any clues? Thanks.

Lithium battery parallel with old lead acid
(Preview)
I bumped into a fellow traveller on the weekend who recommended lithium batteries. My current caravan battery is about six years old and I'm a bit worried that it might need replacing. I also thought that an extra battery would be good for the free stays, charging up when I have power and I also have a sol...

Can anyone give me some advice on water filters for my caravan. I have been looking at Inline filters to put on the inlet hose. Are there any that I should steer away from, or things to look out for?

We have an Iveco/Winnebago 26' 'Jervis' Motorhome and just wondering what the opinion is of other users out there, as to the use of stabilizer legs to minimise any movement when set up?

Diesel heater
(Preview)
Our Diesel heater works fine but cuts off about 30min after startup. Will decreasing set temp (30) help. Or maybe green fuel line collapses. Intake all clear, pump sounds fine. Timer not set either. Any advice appreciated.
