Probably because the door isn't typically open that long. If it is and the bulb is on then I would think the open door is more of an issue. Mine has a switch so it's usually kept turned off. Don't really need it.

Howdy!

As a fulltime RVer I tired of fighting water pressure problems. So I ordered a watts 263A pressure regulater today for the RV water filter store.

A new backgammon set. It was actually a birthday gift, but it will be used strictly in the RV.

My issue is not too much pressure, it is always not enough volume for a decent shower. Wish there was a way to fix that.

Have you tried the Oxygenics Spa shower heads or the EcoCamel Jetstorm? Both provide more pressure with less water. Also, I've found that using my own pressure regulator when there is already on on the CG faucet means weak pressure.

I just replaced my 10 outside LED/Solar Pathway lights that I have been using for over 5 years full time. Two had just quit working and the other 8 were just "tired looking". The new ones are 4X brighter than the originals and I changed the provided 900mah batteries to 2,300mah. Now they run all night vs only until midnight or so like the originals. The instruction sheet said to use 900mah batteries minimum so I fixed that.

Infrared heat gun. Delivery tomorrow. Additional rocker switch for patio awning lights. Going to put a LED strip under the awning on a separate switch.

$80 for trying a shower head?? Just not enough flow coming thru. $80 later = same issue. I need to boost the volume. I think its a plumbing issue somewhere because I see volume at the source.

If you use a "pressure regulator", make sure it's not one of the under $10 Camping World types. They are really flow reducers. Also if you have a back flow or check valve close to the hose connection to the coach, make sure it's not obstructing flow. Even the cut off valves and "Y" fittings have very small openings which restrict flow.

AutoMotion Blinds

Finally talked my wife into dumping the curtains and day/night shades. We paid a little more for the decorator colors but it should be really nice! They will be delivered in 3 weeks. We met the Director of Sales at the Tampa show and received 10% off. Now I'll have have something to do for a few days.

Being as we are pretty new it seems I will never get to that "last" purchase. However, here are some of the most recent ones:
Battery cut off switch
New shower head & hose
Propane grill
Zero gravity chairs
LED tail lights
LED interior lights
Digital thermostat
Good thing that I am a gear junkie.
