Re: is danhard AC louder than roof AC
Just wondering with the portable AC units if the 8000 btu's are able to cool down a van with the penthouse top? I'm also wondering if I went with a 10000 btu if a honda 2000 watt generator would put...

Re: Road Xpedition interior 12 volt van
Not really sure. What happened was I left the fan on and it eventually burned itself out. It looks like the controller melted so maybe that's all I need? Thanks for the links.

Road Xpedition interior 12 volt fan
Anyone know where I could pick up a new interior 12volt fan? I attached some pics. I was hoping for the same exact model as it will line up perfectly with the holes for the screws.
Much thanks

Re: Homemade "Skreenz"
Dave I like your idea for the penthouse top. Especially with using the earth magnets to keep it in place. Here's another thought as my main concern is keeping the bugs away from the screen mesh:

Re: Fridge is not working on 110 AC hook up
OK so I'm a bit of a nob and missed the obvious. I plugged my 12 volt inverter into an AC outlet in the van and that resolved my issue. I guess the fridge won't switch to AC unless the inverter is...

Re: Porta-Shower Mod.
Ray,
I love your set up. In regards to draining the shower pan to the t section and on to the grey water tank is it simply gravity that makes this happen?
Thanks, Louie.
