RE: Can the grid keep up with EV use?
There are still a lot of houses in my area that only have 60 amp electrical service with old glass fuses but the folks who live in them would never be able to afford an electric car anyway.

RE: Waste water totes for fresh water
I use a spray tank with the pump already mounted on it (never had anything in it put potable water). I took off the spray hose and attached a garden hose quick connect and for the electrical changed the alligator clips to a standard rv plug. You can get these sized from 15 to 50 gallons or more.

RE: Fifth wheel length question
Over the last 25 years we have had everything from a 8' truck camper to a 38' fifth wheel and several in between. Considering we really like OLDER national parks and COE parks, size is a very limiting factor. I sometimes wish our 31'fiver was smaller. Most of these parks will have some sites for the bigger rigs but not nearly as many as those for smaller rigs

RE: Using my phone hotspot for the tv.
That is what I do. I used to have the family phones and a hotspot for traveling internet. I finally got smart and realized the data is unlimited on our phone plans but rather expensive on the hotspot. I bought another phone on ebay, activated it and deactivated the hotspot. This phone is just used as a dedicated hotspot when traveling. I also have a booster in the fiver with an external antenna mounted on a painter's pole which can go up 20 feet or more. If there is any signal at all, I have pretty good internet for streaming netflix, etc.

RE: Water at spigots, shower, toilet, etc. with pump shut off?
Some rigs have an accumulator tank which would hold the water pressure a little longer but it will still stop after a little bit

RE: Extending Wifi Range???
Not to hijack the thread, but has anyone had any luck with the wifi extenders working through a metal sided building?

RE: Advice on Best Type of Internet
I can only speak for Hughesnet and I would not wish it on my worst enemy. I had their service for 4 years because it was our only option but what they promised and what I got was not the same. I was supposed to be getting 20 mbps but the average was closer to 3 mbps and that doesn't even include ping latency

RE: Water damage self repair?
You always have the option to get the outside sealed back up to prevent further damage and leave it alone. Unless it is a true structural issue or you just can't stand it, you could spend your time camping rather than working on it.
