I recently upgraded my single house battery to a double so we now have 240amps in the van. We have a 3 way frid...

The panels have an open circuit voltage of around 40v and are rated 235w. Of course I'll be using a suitably rated mtttp contr...

Has anyone personally had a hitch failure, towbar, ball coupling etc., lot of talk about shackles & ratings as such.
Hard to believe with set ups as they are that they could fail to this extent, talking about a set up with all parts up to standard.

Hi Travellers,
Having trouble with the small toggles that hold the top half of the door to the ceiling when travelling. I guess it's a common fault as it is a weak point. Any suggestions that might make it a little more secure would be appreciated.
Thanks NormJean.

Hello Travellers,
Can anyone give advice on how to keep the half,or top of the door ,secured to the ceiling for travel. The toggles seem to be weak and don't last.
I'm guessing it's a common problem and suggestions would be appreciated.
It's a 2017 Model.
Thanking you Norm and Jean.

We're currently camped at Lake Hindmarsh NW VIC. The lake is ringed by big old River Red Gums. At The Wattles campground there is a tree with a branch that looks exactly like a horses head from every angle. It's larger than a Clydesdale's Head. Nature comes up with some strange things sometimes.
