RE: Leaving camper setup and leveled
Our trailer has the ground control 3.0 auto leveling.
I keep it leveled all the time when it's in the storage facility. I don't have room to open the slides.
Power is disconnected to the leveling system with all the jacks down. I have added a switch to remove power to the jacks even with the batteries connected. With the jacks down and no easy way to raise then it makes the trailer a little harder to steal.
In the Lippert manual it says that the jacks can be left extended when in storage, they recommend spraying the exposed shafts with silicone to prevent corrosion.
Even after months with no power the system will auto retract and return to hitch height once power is restored.

RE: Lippert six point levelling jacks
I use blocks under the low side tires to get the trailer within 2 or 3 inches of being level before I auto level. If I don't the jacks will lift the low side tires off the ground. I have a bubble level on the front of the fifth wheel to help getting it level side to side.

RE: Few parts needed
Command electronics probably made the lights. That's what was on our 2005 Rvision.

Most likely this one or this one.

RE: Using a Cpap in my AF 27-5
Most resmed machines run on 24 volts.
Go to cpap.com search for resmed 12v cable in the search box, find the one for your machine. You will need a 12v socket added to the trailer to use the cpap machine on 12v.
Running it off 12 volts is more efficient than using an inverter.

Crater Lake 3rd week of June
I am thinking about a trip to Crater Lake towards the end of June.
What will be open in the park at that time of the year?

RE: Step to reach hitch pin
I use a plastic milk crate with a square piece of plywood on the bottom. When its not being used for a step the wheel chocks go in the crate and it rides in the bed of the truck.

RE: For those with no bathroom access during travel mode.
We have no bathroom access on our trailer. It's not a big problem.
We use the restrooms at gas stations or rest areas. Or we stop in a parking lot and put the slide out for a few minutes.

RE: Biden to restore 3 national monuments cut by Trump
In case this is again seen as political, that's an actual copy-and-passte headline.
In fact, these should be declared national parks once and for all to prevent these to be used as political football and get full national park management and funding.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/biden-restore-3-national-monuments-043531077.html
And the problem of using a presidential deceleration is that there is no money made available to manage or protect these lands, the president can't do that on his own. It needs to be done properly under the legislative process and be made a national park or national monument.
