65" TV in an RV seems a little small to me

A pair of Midland LXT600VP3 36-Channe walkie talkies that will hopefully make those back in sites easier for my DW to direct me to the right spot.

Also a pair of ARCTIC F12 Silent, 120 mm case fans for the rear of the reefer, replacing the original that has become a rattler.

Then an ARCTIC F8 Silent, 80 mm fan for the converter/charger that is whining louder.

Since we 'ran out' of propane last fall with about a third o a tank left, one of these - MARSH EXCEL MEGR253 Auto Change Over Regulator. If others also need a new regulator I needed to make up a mounting bracket since there are no screw lugs cast on the sides, only the back of this brand. Not a big deal but disappointing that while it's supposed to be a direct replacement, isn't.

This is all part of winter fun when we can't/don't use our 5er

Don't know if it counts if the insurance pays for it, but about 1/2 mile of PEX and 65 or so fittings for said PEX. Re-plumbing the entire coach after a heater failure.

Extra heavy duty extension cord for plugging in engine pre-heater, additional Vornado electric heater, broom attachment for surehold handle.

I've grown tired of the hassle with bringing firewood to a campground and having to buy wood from them. Don't get me wrong, I understand the reasoning behind not bringing in firewood from other counties, etc. but it's still a hassle to not be able to bring your own wood.....that you know will burn well and not have to worry about being green or wet and struggling with getting the fire lit. So, I bought this......

60,000 BTU when full on, but of course there is an adjustable flow regulator that allows it to be set to a lower setting. And the good news is, if you are camping in an area that has a burn ban in effect, this can still be used because it can be turned off instantly. I may have to buy some "spray smoke" smell for a dose of reality though!

A new roof. I had the FlexArmor spray on roof installed. They had to replace all my decking as it was wet and rotten from previous leakage. Should be no more chalking running down the side of the coach and I don't have to worry about ever caulking seams again. A solid, leak-free, and maintenance-free roof. And it carries a transferable lifetime warranty. I'm a happy camper!

Pulled our Dometic thermostat that was failing to switch between front and rear AC. Sent it off for repair and works good as new....no having to spend big bucks to change our control boards.

Who repaired it? Did you send it back to Dometic?

1050 watt solar system I'll be installing in the next week or so. With a Morningstar MPPT 60 controller and remote monitor. Already had a Trimetric 2030 battery monitor.

Replaced the double din JVC radio with a double din 10.1 inch Android 7.1 radio. It is incredible. No more straining the eyes and it uses OK Google to do different functions. Three GPS programs. 2 (Google Maps and Waze) while it is connected to my phone and 1 stand alone (Navigon) High definition quality and bright screen.
Also had water leak under the shower drain. Ordered the new shower drain basket but when I removed the pipe under the drain, the rubber washer was broken and someone before me doctored it up with some some kind of putty. Changed out the washer. No more water leaks. Put the new drain in the closet.

Heater strip for Coleman A/C unit.

A new stinky slinky - one of the fancy camco rhino hoses. Stepped on it the first time I used it, before even pulling the gate..... Now just waiting for it to leak. Guess I should go ahead and get another new one.

Regards.
