Keep the Leaks away!

Water leaks can be bad in just about any environment. It can be a catastrophe in an RV, Travel Trailer, Teardrop Camper, Motorhome, Pop-Up or other portable camping equipment. There are a couple rules I like to follow when adding any new electronics to my RV. Outside Supply wants you to honestly judge your experience level before taking on any project. This is because it is sometimes better to hire someone with more experience at sealing and installing items in your RV than make some costly mistakes. While many projects on an RV can be simple and easy to accomplish, certain task can require more skill, tools and experience than others. Just make a good decision about hiring a professional before starting. Many times if you are supplying the parts for a job, the installtion labor can be very reasonable.

Mark for New Hampshire called today to enquire about a solar panel and inverter that could charge his cell phone using an AC power jack. He really wants the inverter to run from the Pop-up Camper's battery and then use the solar panel to charge the battery. He doesn't use much power, in fact he says his 100Ah battery last about 4 days when dry camping. This is with no charging. So he won't need much solar and the 7 watt AC load for 2 hours a day won't add much additional usage either.

There are many Pop Up camper owners who have wanted to break free of constant generator usage or the RV park umbilical cord. These campers are now finding that with the simple addition of a power inverter from Outside Supply they can now do many of their normal activities off grid. For example one customer wanted to run his laptop to check sports scores and read email while on his trip. He often went into the crowed campground wash room to have access to electricity.

We have a lot of customers who are using power inverters to power their cordless phones in their RVs. The reason is they find the power in RV parks can be very noisy. The extra noise and voltage fluctuations in the power can cause added interference in their cordless phones.

Their solution has been to add a 300 Watt True Sine wave inverter to always power their cordless phones in their RVs. This way the cordless phone has clean reliable power from their sine wave power inverter.
