I'm hoping a fan does the trick (and a bit of extra warmup time). I'm not concerned about the side hatch. Its a compartment of stuff/air and then another wall and cushions between it and the interior space of the camper. My engineering buddies are quick to remind me that air has an R-value of...

@GeorgeHayduke the winter heating also has me a bit concerned as well. I've seen a number of Olympics doing a LOT of ski camping at resorts (a guy I know works for Rossignol and uses it nearly every weekend in the winter) and also for some backcountry missions. He has his little kids/wife with...

While these things were mildly annoying, they are entirely non-issues personally for us (and we spent like 11 weekends in our Scout in a row when we got it...with 4 of us). My wife fixed the mattress cover quick. She cut out the cut-out in the cover we bought and then used fabric spray-on glue...

The low wire gauge and 25ft, with connections too....all act as a bottleneck and limit the amount of power over distance...you lose voltage over distance. The smaller diameter wire and futher distance, the more voltage is lost. Its like drinking the ocean through a tapered straw. When that...

Kenai just comes with the little circular dome fan over the sink/stove (nice for bacon!). It moves like 300CFM and that's enough to vent all the air in the Kenai's small space. The Caframo fan is where its at because of the gimble and ultra low power usage. The fridge pulls 3.5amps off an on...

I haven't but I've got the details on it and general installation. So here's the thing, that charging module bolts right into the Yeti and supports like 65amps of charge. That's a lot of power coming in that it supports! Now Scout did wire in Yeti's 8guage power cable into the guts of the...

The MaxxFan dome fan on the Kenai is decent for the small space and pulls an Amp. I like the Fantastic Fan and they move a ton of air, but they pull a lot of amps at higher speeds. With the windows and Maxx its been good. The sweet addition we made was a boat fan from Caframo. Its the...

Did you check out the RinseKit with heater? Seems like it might be a solid fit. Works well for the Mini-van surf crowd that I know.

GoalZero got back to me with some details. They advised the vehicle integration kit below: https://www.goalzero.com/shop/yeti-accessories/yeti-link-vehicle-integration-kit/ When I asked about that cable being under recall, they said the following: "The EC8 is heavy enough and no longer under...

The issue with these 12V cables is that they require a 12v outlet rather than a hardwired solution in the truck, and they'll only do around 150W max I think.

Hi there, anyone know how to get a Goal Zero 1500X setup to charge off your Van while driving/running and also get it to charge close to the 750W that their Link Expansion Module supports? If so how is that setup and what's the charge rate you are getting? I've got a 1500X wired into my Truck...

Hi there, how is that GoalZero setup and what's the charge rate you are getting? I've got a 1500X wired into my Truck Camper (Scout Kenai) but want to get it to charge off my truck when driving. The Link Module supports up to 750w charging rate and I'd love to get close to that as it'd be enough...

Hi there, is your Goal Zero setup to charge off your Van while driving/running? If so how is that setup and what's the charge rate you are getting? I've got a 1500X wired into my Truck Camper (Scout Kenai) but want to get it to charge off my truck when driving. The Link Module supports up to...

I've got the Joolca for use in/out of our Scout Kenai camper and have gotten it dialed in a bit. There are a few things that have come to mind: 1- We wanted something that had a button to turn the water on and off as we showered without it killing the damn pilot light every time. Needed to be...

You are a brave guy getting that RTT installed yourself lol. I'm not that handy in the least. I DEFINITELY think the RTT is freaking amazing tho. It just wouldn't work for us without it. I've been really impressed by the RoofNest for sure too. I'll send you a photo/video album that...

I'm not saying they won't work, I just wasn't ever sure and couldn't get anyone, including Ford to give me a legit capacity number for mine. So it was left in question which I wasn't comfortable with. Thankfully FWC has been doing this for 35+ years (or hell is it 45yrs?) and doing it this...

Same problem here. I ended up going with the tried and true FWC solution. I found a FWC dealer here in PNW (Das Mule) and they sold me the mounting hardware that they've used for like 30 yrs (their campers are of similar weight). Video of the install and hardware. They sold me the hardware...

I haven't noticed any air intake, especially since the fan is blowing out. I'm guessing it'll be fine in the winter. Put a silicon bead around the seal to the ceiling and also around where the hose screws into the vent. I video'd the whole install (mostly) if you end up wanting to see it.. I...

I think the Thetford is still a nice option and I don't have experience with it so I'm no expert there. The Airhead will produce some faint smell out of the vent but even when we messed it up (it smelled bad then), you couldn't smell it unless you climbed up near the vent. Its up so high that...

You guys are all awesome. Lots of good education here. Looks like I could use some better shocks etc or the airbags. Its really good on the road so far, I can even kind of rally the thing through twisty paved roads up the mountain...but yeah I get that extra boinga-boinga when I get into a...
