Electrical charging timer

Instead of leaving my stored(it's freezing rain here today in WIS) 5er plugged in and charging ALL the time(saves some electricity/$) I use a timer to run the charging system just 2hrs a day.

Are you firing your heater on gas or electric?

What Did You Do To Your Jayco TODAY?

Ended up not going with the Jayco upgrade and ordered these with the Goodyear Endurance

S02 Sedlan with a 235/80/16
3200# at 94PSI Total before trade $1271 out the door with warranty.

Should look great on the HT.
They said they would look at trading for these to reduce the price

Can’t wait.

Bought a trickle charger for my battery and some new locking pins for the hitch.

You don't happen to have air trapped in there somewhere after being winterized? Highly unlikely but just thinking out loud.

No air. Ran the water a few minutes through all the spicket and outside shower then rotated back through again for good measure then gave it time before cuttin on the heater. I cracked the drain plug and water started comin out then I checked the pressure switch and it let out water as well.

Started prepping for the installation of a set of 12v LED reading lights above the head of the bed. Removed all the staples holding down the bottom of the cabinet above the bed so I could gain access to hook into the wiring for the existing light. I found these on walmart.com for $35 a pair - free shipping:

I just installed the Carlisle HD on my trailer last week.

Were you not happy with them?

I put a number of heavy and hot southern/southwest miles on them and they have been fantastic. Leaps and bounds better than the China bombs. I upgraded to a 16” for more height and a level 5er with a higher rating and better overall tire option. For the 15s you can’t beat the Carlisles in my opinion.
