Moved to the maintenance section, I think its more appropriate there. Thanks for sharing the video, I'll check it out at home later (Youtube is blocked where I work).

This is great, since we had our pod delivered we didn't really get a walk thru.

Pawpod, thanks for posting the walkthrough videos. I watched them all. Did I hear right -- that the inverter (is that what's it's called?) takes automotive fuses -- he said 2 40-amp fuses and the rest were 15-amp fuses? I was surprised because I don't think my pop-up took anything more than a 30-amp fuse.
In any case, can someone tell me WHICH kind of auto fuses the guy was talking about--one kind has a square end, and another has more pointed ends, right? When I was in WalMart today I wasn't sure which ones to buy for spares, although I almost took a chance and bought the square-ended ones.
Also, I know I don't have to worry about winterizing until the fall. But when he showed the water heater bypass valve UNDER the bed, I got such a feeling of dread. I can't lift that dang awkward mattress as it is -- how in the heck can I ever get to that darn valve? When the time comes, I'm afraid Miss Independent Me is going to have to ask SOMEBODY for some help after all!

Didn't take a close look but I assume it's like this -

Thanks, that was my guess.

Thanks so much Pawpod,
I took lots of notes but didn't write down everything and have forgotten lots of it already.
Your video has reminded me and I expect we will be reviewing it a few more times!

Yes, the converter (inverter goes 12 V to 120 V AC, converter goes 120 V to 12 V) uses automotive blade-style fuses on the 12 volt circuits - lights, water pump, etc. It wouldn't hurt to get an assortment and keep them with you just in case.
