This is what it looks like. The responses seem pretty contradicting.

RE: Ditching Dometic Thermostat?
It is digital and I don’t see any model numbers on it anywhere. If it gets bumped at all the cooling and furnace numbers go into the 20’s and won’t go any higher than 32. 50 tries of resnapping the cover on and I might get lucky to get it to recover. Anyone else had this experience?

Ditching Dometic Thermostat?
Can I swap out my POS Dometic Thermostat with a simple household thermostat?

RE: Do ice cubes in the black tank really work?
I think that my sensor must have been installed directly under the drop shoot. Just a flush of water makes it read 3/4 full. Being that the sensor has always been inaccurate, I just use the sniff test to empty my black tank.

RE: need help with electrical
As long as your battery switch isn’t in the off position, your batteries charge while driving. In addition to your converter being suspect, take a battery out and charge it independently. Take it to your neighborhood auto parts store and have it load tested.

RE: Painfully slow internet
Some of you that are speaking techie are being helpful but a little over my head. My phone has unlimited but not hot spot. Is Webboost a standalone system or are there other pieces of the puzzle?

RE: Problem with Cat scale weights
Sounds like you had the front trailer axle in contact with the second scale plate.
A trailer of that size and weight certainly doesn't have just one axle so I was suspect of the scale weight of the trailer axle as well.

RE: Toilet seats
My toilet is a Thetford and I think a standard round will fit. I picked up a new seat and will take it up to the campground this week to see if it works.

RE: Howdy. New Owner With Questions Not Found in the Manuals.
At demolition, a post in the ground and a temp panel box. A contractor will do the exact same when new construction starts so just do it now.

RE: Howdy. New Owner With Questions Not Found in the Manuals.
Dave, He posted unreliable shore power.
Must have missed that. Generator as alternate power source is still my answer if microwave and air conditioning is in play.

RE: Howdy. New Owner With Questions Not Found in the Manuals.
1) Why not leave it plugged into shore power 100% of the time?
2) Are you dumping into a septic system for the cabin? I leave my gray valves open until a day before dumping my black tank for flushing the line purposes.
3) Put a thermometer in it and see what temperature you are really getting.
4) Still not understanding concerns about batteries if you have shore power. Since you are living in the trailer, a generator of ocassional use would be the best solution for off grid power.

RE: Toilet seats
How would replacing a whole toilet be cheaper than a $20 toilet seat?

RE: First Aid Kit Contents
Those "First Aid Kits" sold as a kit-in-a-box are virtually worthless. Sure, they've got a "lot" of components but do they have what you need when you need it?
Make your own.
Ours is a smaller version of "Papa's Operating Room" box here on the farm, a largish plastic box with small bottles of peroxide and alcohol (rubbing alcohol, the good stuff is in a separate cabinet), assorted boxes of bandages (band-aides but not necessarily that brand), different size gauze pads, tape, etc etc. You got the idea.
FWIW, no gloves. Neither DW or I have a worry about treating anyone in the family and getting our hands bloody. If any one of us has a disease it's highly unlikely that any of the other of us doesn't have it too.
So it sounds like you don't realize that the majority of what you listed is what is in the over the counter kits. We get the kit and maybe supplement a few extra items that might be in small quantities in the kit.

RE: Is camping Fun Anymore
We seasonal camp at a KOA where the campground is somewhat divided between the seasonal and daylies. We enjoy talking to the dayly folks as much as making some new friends with the other seasonal folks. We try to have a pot luck at least once a week. We have also become pretty good friends with the camp hosts/owners.

RE: Toilet seats
Assuming it's not the plastic toilets with nesting seats.
The porcelain ones, just check the bolt pattern and size...better yet, take it to the store with you.
Seat and cover are a thin plastic, trying to get something a little more sturdy. The plastic pin that holds the seat cover to the hinge snapped for no reason.

Will a standard residential toilet seat work on the RV toilet?
