Mine is about the same. It hasn't caused issues camping in wind, rain, or snow yet. I haven't attempted to fix it, but have seriously thought about it.

It's also a Fridge. ;)

It's a little shocking how much they can carry. SRW is around 5k, DRW is just under 8k.

Thank you!

I saw that idea in someone else's mod thread here, and I have quite liked it so far. The downside of it is that the door is much smaller than my passthrough, so I've given up a fair bit...

I feel like an idiot for not looking inside the fitting and it clearly being a check valve. Given the brass don’t have the gasket I guess it’s just a standard flat rubber gasket needed?

Thank you...
