    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    That's why we didn't go for Starlink originally too. I heard they're going to do something that works for RVers, but I wouldn't drop the dough before confirming something like that. Not sure if that unit has it, but our Pepwave has dual SIM card slots that can switch between two cards on the...

    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    Thanks! We took all the drawer/cabinet faces off, took a sander to everything paint would go on, wiped clean with Krud Kutter, and used a primer followed by two coats of Dunn-Edwards paints. We learned using a roller was the way to go.

    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    I very briefly mentioned it and posted one, obscure picture haha. I went with the Victron Orion Tr-Smart 12/12 30-amp isolated charger. The downside of going lithium.. everything has to be lithium compatible!

    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    Ahh, yeah anything with heat is always rough on amp draw. We don't use much when running off batteries since our setup is a bit smaller. The Pepwave setup is pretty cool. Our's is the MAX BR1 MK2 and we got the 700GB/month plan through MobileMustHave.com. The greatest part is the boosted...

    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    Thanks! That's how I assumed they would all be wired, but most rigs I've seen since we got ours were wired like ours. Sounds like someone was thinking when they designed yours!

    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    Thanks man. The battery monitor is a Victron BMV-712 Smart. Pretty easy install and the amount of info is awesome. Don’t let the “Time Remaining” field run your life when boondocking like it did to me haha

    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    Tech Going without internet blows. Yes, camping and “getting away from it all” is great, but let’s be honest, most people would be in a tent rather than a big RV that came with 3 TVs from the factory if that was the case. Internet access is a luxury that we’ve all grown accustomed to. There...

    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    The Upgrades As with all RVs, there’s room for improvements. I’ve learned a long time ago, if there’s a chance to fix something while improving it, do it. Also, “buy once, cry once” applies to most everything. That being said, we were absolutely on a budget, so we spent more money on what we...

    RV Mods - Upgrading our RV to be more like a house

    Thought some people in here might be interested in some of the upgrades we made to our RV. This is basically a mash-up of "why we choose this RV", "How we made it more comfortable for any trip", and "affordable modifications that most people would benefit from". For years, RVs & travel...

    2019 Damn Dam Run

    Lenses do end up costing more than bodies. It's always better picking a brand to marry into, investing in good lenses, then upgrading bodies later down the road. I'm not sure what ya mean by the fish on the end; maybe she was talking about the tripod foot on my tele lens?

    2019 Damn Dam Run

    Yeah, it’s an expensive hobby! I’ve learned gear works better as business write off . I’m currently using Fuji’s X-H1. 50-140mm 2.8 for the long stuff, 16-55mm 2.8 for closer. 10-24mm for really close.
