Can anyone advise why my Truma Boiler model B10/B14 seems to cut out on either gas or 240V and needs to be turned off - wait for 5 minutes and turned back on again for the unit to heat up for one cycle and turn back off again? I have an Winnebago Esperance 2010 model. Thanks

I will be fitting two 150 watt panels to our jayco discovery to operate and charge 2x 100 amp/hr agm batteries. As I guess that 90 % of regs are made in China and are for sale on Ebay from $20.00 to $200.00. Has any one purchased and used any of these, I would appreciate any feed back.

We have just replaced the anode in our MH, hot water system - the second one in three years. The first one we took out was kept by the people we got the new one from, as an example of how bad they can get.
