RE: Small propane leak?
Small leaks blow up large buildings!
It is new, take it back to dealer and insist on an LPG leak down test.

RE: Sunscreen dangerous?
Sunlight in moderation is good. Toxic (poisonous) lotions on your skin are bad. Your skin is your largest organ and what is applied to your skin is absorbed almost directly to your blood stream.
Many skin and hair care products are highly toxic and dangerous to your health. Environmental Working Group (EWG) is a nonprofit consumer advocacy organization that does lab tests on consumer products. You should check out the EWG "Sunscreen 2013" and "Skin Deep" reports.

RE: Brand new - "AS IS" ??
If you buy a new car, the dealer doesn't warrantee it, the manufacturer does. Same thing.

RE: Replacing Basler Central Power Pack with WF-8735
The three way switch is eliminated.
The WFCO is a good basic three stage charger/converter/power center. You might want to consider the 8725P to save some money. It should be sufficient for all your needs.
Residential receptacles only meet code if they are in a box. RV and mobile home receptacles do not need a box. Any receptacles should be GFCI protected.
The red wire from converter goes to the battery, the charge line from tow vehicle goes to the battery. All negative/grounds go to the frame.
Your WFCO will have positions for breakers. You can get the breakers at your local home improvement store. Use a 30a breaker as the main by energizing the buss bar through that breaker. Add 20a and 15a breakers as needed for other receptacles.

RE: Heater Question
Lights do not draw current from the heater. The heater will draw current when turned on and will not draw current when turned off. Because they are on the same fuse is of no consequence...
Agreed.

RE: axle hitting frame question
The very first thing to do is get it weighed. By doing that you will verify that it is or isn't overloaded. If it isn't overloaded it may have the wrong springs.

RE: marcus lemonis
:S
Free or cheap introductory offers are a common and successful marketing tool. You just happened to have received it accidentally due to some glitch. I don't think you should be offended.
Welcome to the forum. It is a shame that it took a complaint to bring you here. However now that you are here, stick around and participate.

RE: CO Detector low voltage
Sounds like the detector may be defective. Why do you have a CO2 detector? What you should be concerned about is CO. :B

RE: Changes in Highways magazine
A company that does what is best for the owners and not the customers does so right up to the point that it has no customers anymore...
The law obligates corporations to maximize profits for shareholders. They do have to walk a tightrope between maximizing profits, being socially responsible, and serving customers.
In my opinion, no one can objectively look at the work that Mr. Lemonis has done as the CEO and conclude anything other than he has a personal passion for his job and that he is motivated by doing the right thing...
I agree 100%. It appears that Mr. Lemonis tries to do what is best for all, but his legal obligation is to the ownership. He has been on a successful mission to turn the company around and has made it profitable again.

RE: Changes in Highways magazine
Marcus I have been a member of Good Sam since the 1990's. I became a Life member November 2002. I am NOT the least bit pleased with "Your" changes as they DO NOT benefit me at ALL. I especially do not care for you discontinuing HIGHWAYS magazine. You have FAILED miserably in every way possible. In short, A BIG FAT GOOSE EGG.
Did you happen to notice all the other "Highways" threads before starting another one?
As for changes benefiting you, Good Sam is a for profit corporation that does what is best for the owners, not the customers, oops I mean members.

RE: Does your insect repellant work?
Ah yes, that natural Titanium Oxide...
I don't get it, why do you insist on arguing? There are safer alternatives to Deet and other toxic chemicals. Is anything perfectly safe? Absolutely not. So what.
My only point of commenting is that there are safer alternatives and everyone should do their research and make an informed decision rather than being Lemmings.
BTW, I use only Organic unrefined Coconut oil. I don't know what that stuff is that you posted about.

RE: Does your insect repellant work?
Do you plan to drink any of those skin cremes that people put on their skin? How about sun block, do you apply that to your radicchio sandwich? Do you eat eye liner, lipstick or hand sanitizer? How about shampoo or rinse, body soap? The statement is just plain wrong.
BK
I use coconut oil for skin cream, I also cook with it.
When in the sun I often wear long sleeves and a broad brim hat. Occasionally I use a sunscreen which contains titanium and zinc oxide (natural minerals), sunflower, coconut, and jojoba oils, and yes, you could eat it with no ill effects.
I don't use hand sanitizer because it is poison and have never had need of makeup although there are safer versions of them also.
Dr. Bronner's Castile soap is also safe but tastes terrible, I have on occasion brushed my teeth with it in a pinch.

RE: Does your insect repellant work?
I'll take exception to "not putting anything on your skin that you wouldn't swallow". Money is one of the dirtiest things there is, I'll touch it, but I won't swallow it. Look at everyone on this site whoworks on the MHs with oil and batteries - I'm not going to swallow any of that either. The touching / swallowing idea sounds fine until you think about it...
There is a big difference between occasionally touching something and slathering it all over your skin regularly. Many mechanics are required to wear gloves to protect their hands from automotive chemicals.
Just sayin it is somthing to think about since there are alternatives. Each of us makes our own choices and lives with the consequences.

RE: Looking for better Sway Control
I'm happy with my Equal-izer four point but my suggestion would be that you spend some time correctly adjusting the hitch you have.

RE: Air in propane line
I wouldn't consider it normal. Unless I have removed a cylinder I have LPG at my appliances instantly. You need to put a manometer on the system and do some testing, something is wrong.

RE: new bigger tv, still need WD htich?
The lightest of those trailers has a GVWR of 3,552#. Personally, I never tow an empty trailer.
I suggest you get your trailer weighed.
