boondocking

I just got here. It is really cool boondocking on the Hoh River near Forks. Where else can you camp on the river and I mean on the river rocks. Hoh Rainforest, ONP beaches and Forks are all only 15 miles away. But just digging it here. $5 per vehicle per day so $10 per day for me and my toad...

Hi I bought myself a 1998 Itasca Spirit. I am embarrassed to say that I bought her with out an inspection. I think she is in good shape but I have come to realize that the previous owners were kind of ignorant to rv life and maintenance. My plan is to be out on the road boondocking for 6-8...

I am installing a 2000 watt inverter to power my fridge and TV and outlets. I've been told I have to switch off the converter while running the Inverter as to not create a charging loop. But if I turn the Converter breaker off does that not kill all my 12 volt in the trailer? I want to have both...

New to the Form. New Mini Winnie owner. I need to change out the House batteries. In my Other MH I have used Walmart or Interstate standard wet batteries but don’t have an Inverter in my old 1 and not sure if these models have them so you need a more powerful unit. Thanks in Advance

Male Clippers are identical to Nail Clippers. Just Men use them differently. Women use them as Nail Clippers. Men... that and other good purposes. :) I scanned two examples. Toe Nail & Finger Nail Clippers. Size matters to them. The smaller clipper... I have carried this size since I was...

Hi, all! Looking to get some advice for our new (to us) 2021 Shamrock 233S. We are planning at least one week-long beach camp every year (boondocking) and I want to make sure we have the battery capacity. We have a propane fridge, so the biggest power draws will probably be our fans at night...

I search for a truckcamper. I live in / on Iceland and here it is often (surprise) stormy and cold, the weather can chance in minutes. So the plan is to use "him" only in the summertime. But you never know, and even than it can be snowing... My husband is almost 2 meters tall and we´re...

I just purchased a 2022 Micro Mini for several adventures. First will be 1 month trip along Route 66 - Chicago to La. Plan to stay in parks most of time but likely have several nights in various off grid locations. Just myself and Maisy the wonderdog. My need is small maybe TV at night...

I'm in the Seattle area and probably at least three years away from buying Airstream. (Currently researching tow vehicles but I created a different thread for that.) A small Bambi or Caravel would get me into the Airstream lifestyle the quickest and would be fine for weekend camping, but my...

Hello. I'm considering adding an extra solar panel (portable, 100 ~ 200 watt range) to our 21C. I'd like to be able to plug this panel into the Zamp port on the side of our trailer. Our existing solar panel is a 200 watt. Open circuit voltage is around 23 volts. Our battery system is the...

I am planning on boondocking in south east Idaho this summer( July/August)and was curious about other people's trips. Was there enough spots available in the area?Should I be concerned about showing up and nothing is open? I haven't boondocked yet but wanted to try it. I just don't want to get...

Hello, I’m looking at a Percon F3000LFP solar generator to add to our Reflection 295RL 5th wheel. We currently have a 165 watt solar panel and a 1000 watt inverter for dry camping. The idea is to replace the battery and invert with the solar generator. Has anyone had any experience with...

Hello all, I am happy new owner of a 2000 Itasca Spirit 31' class C. The seller always had the RV on shoreline power, so I have no idea how good or bad the AUX batteries are. What I do know is, the shoreline cord was pulling 4.5 amps (on a killowatt meter) for battery charging. I...

Hi everyone - After having a few different campers over the years (cabover, pop-up camp trailer) this is our first endeavor into the travel trailer space and super excited about it. We picked up a 1989 Wilderness and the previous owner did a great job updating the inside, painting, new...

I have been an Airstream owner for the past 16 years and am very close to moving into a Renegade Verona product. I would be interested in hearing Verona Owners (or Explorer for that matter) opinions on my purchase arguments: I am already sold on the Renegade product and the quality of the...

I have a enclosed car trailer that is 50 amp service. I would like to add a Pecron 3000 battery generator under the front cabinet and be connected through a 50 AMP ATS. Can I just jump the Leg1 to the Leg2 when wiring up a 30 amp cord for the Pecron. I would rather not use an adapter. That's...

does Anyone have any particular brand better than another. going to Best Buy but so many 24 " tv's to choose from. thanks

People whining about lack of water stored in their Airstreams. People whining about noisy AC, Refer, lack of Space, etc. etc. They went from a House to an Airstream. We went from a Pup Tent to an Igloo Tent to a 2006 23 foot Safari, 2014 25 foot International and now suffering in our current...

Hi There, We're looking at transitioning from travel trailers (Airstreamer's) to a smaller super C and very interested in the mid range Dynamax Isata line, specifically an Isata 5 or 6, maybe even a smaller model Europa. We're not full timers, but spend about 12-16 weeks annually exploring...

So right now I have a airstream Atlas with GEN 3 Starlink mounted on top of the roof. Is there a way to switch to a mini and still use the same cables and mounting? Want to use the same cables so do not put another hole through roof. Thanks kurt

Our new 295RL came with a 100/50 solar panel with a controller and wired to the battery bank (2 flooded Lead). That seems too little for any real good. Will one 100W panel do my any good at all? Why did they even bother to put a single panel? I was thinking that I might be able to charge the...

If we were to camp at Yellowstone and had no hookup for shore power, how long would the batteries last for the fridge on our Sanctuary19P before needing recharge?

Does irv2.com need a new forum titled "drycamping", and another new one titled "camping in the boonies"?
