See Level II System

I contacted Garnet asking which sensors I should order for the 2017 DSDP 4018 we have on order. Their response was they don't know, contact your dealer.

I will but I thought I'd throw it open you all of you. So what I need is the height of all three of our holding tanks.

As always your help is appreciated.

John

The strips for the tanks are standard size and can be cut down. Make sure they are installed on the side where your peg board tool storage side is.

If you wait a bit...they are introducing a Bluetooth model...should you see merit in it.

I'm having Newmar install SeeLevel while at factory in June when we'll see each other. I'll let you know what I end up buying. Plan on installing a unit in wet bay & front bath.

If at all possible have the manufacturer order & install, If they won't then wait until you get the coach and put a tape measure to the tanks .

Steele, please advise if they have different length sensors now. I was not aware of that.

I just installed the SEE LEVEL II on mine. The sensors that come with the kit are long enough, you will have to cut them. The fresh water tank I had to cut down to nine inches and the grey and black down to about 8. I installed one in the half bath and the other in the wet bay.

RJ51,

Thank you and nice looking installation.

I am having the extra wire installed at the build going to the cabinet above the copilot chair. Was there a reason you chose the front bath over that cabinet?

I've very interested in doing this, we dry-camp a LOT and it seems to really stress the GF out once the black or grey show 2/3rds or fresh shows 1/3rd. More accurate sensors/display would be awesome!

I'm really interested in the upcoming Bluetooth version, any details on that?

Just that it will be available Spring of 2017

They actually were trying to roll it out in February...but said that they had to make sure they could secure an adequate supply of Bluetooth modules from their supplier.

I have 2017 DSDP 4018 and just left the FMCA Rally in Phoenix a couple of weeks ago. I had Garnet install the system and got the Bluetooth version (my wife and I both have on our phones) They didn't have to run any wiring up to control panel, as mentioned they removed the peg board to attach strips, and ran a wire to wet bay attached gauge so you can also see levels from there We love it, as we do a bit of dry camping this system was worth every $$ I spent. I highly recommend

Is the app for the Bluetooth just a download from an App Store or from Garnet?
