I was just going to mention those. I have one (larger sensor) here on my house 250-gallon tank and I even have them on my two motorhome tanks (smaller sensor). But I almost forgot I had them on my motorhome tanks, as I rarely even think about those. But I can monitor my propane tanks that are...

I don't use those small tanks except on BBQ grills, but won't these work on those tanks? -Don- Auburn, CA

I never wanted the screens off in any of my vehicles. But I would like the rear camera in my Class A to stay on the reverse and not switch with my turn signals. That should be easy to do technically, but like many things, almost impossible to do for mechanical reasons. The mirrors are all I use...

Today, they (V3 technology) gave me a rather large booklet about my system including the specs. V3 had to be here for the final city inspection. It says: 4,050 watts (And I really do get that on a bright sunny day). ten solar modules, each weigh 48.5 lbs. total weight: 485 lbs rack weight...

Kinda what I assumed. But I will be learning the hard way. The inspectors just came here today and signed it all off. Shortly after they left, I was told with a message on email it will take 30 days to get this new system Intergrated into PG&E's paperwork. I assume that means when I start to...

I think the only way possible to get a motorhome exactly the way I want would be to have enough money to get somebody to build it exactly the way I want. And even if I did, I am not real sure if such will be totally possible. And a driver door would be a requirement for me. But when I was...

I seem to be missing something here. How do you make coffee in an ICE vehicle? I mean car, not RV. What is the difference? Unless you make the coffee from the heat of the engine or something like that. BTW, most EVs also have a 12-volt battery. But I am not sure what would happen if you put a...

Today, on the way here I passed a car transporter truck which had five new Tesla Stainless steel Cybertrucks and one new white Model Y. I assume it was going to Rocklin, CA Tesla, which is where I purchased my Model 3 in year 2018. It's 19 miles from this very spot. I will probably take a ride...

Wow! Diana just told me that Bob and her dog died yesterday at about the same time. What a big sad coincidence. -Don- Reno, NV

Close enough, IMO. Nothing can be perfect, and it is Imposible to satisfy everybody. I have no doubt you realize that perhaps more so than anyone else. And I even realize the site team doesn't always agree with each other. -Don- Reno, NV

Yep. I stayed in Flagstaff for a week during my last RV trip. The only town in all of AZ to never hit 100°F in all of its recorded history. I also really enjoy Payson, Cottonwood (Dead Horse Ranch Park) and several other places that usually do not get too hot because of the elevation. AZ is a...

Already did SD as well. Tom & I was all over SD a few different times. Was another interesting place except the time we didn't realize the Stirgus motorcycle rally was going on and couldn't wait to get out of the area when we tried to visit Deadwood. But even during that trip, we got to see Mt...

Diana just telephoned me. Her dog (not that old but has kidney disease) was at the vet in Phoenix while she was here. She just found out that her dog died. Perhaps also happened yesterday. A double whammy for her. She leaves Reno today. I take her to the Reno airport at 1130hrs. She got an...

If you're asking me, yes, I try to get in quite a bit of hiking during all my RV trips. As well as in the Auburn and Reno area. Here, I like to hike in the foothills of Mt. Rose. Several other places too. -Don- Reno, NV

Years ago, Tom & I was all over Wyoming and part of Montana in our Y2K RV. Saw Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Jackson, Cheyenne & more. Was a great trip. This trip I want to check out new places I have not yet been to and decide where to go from there. -Don- Reno, NV
