Took it in for waranty repair at General in Wixom,Mi. Turned out to be a sheared pin in the motor shaft. They said nothing I did. So hopefully won't have that problem again. ]]> Tue, 29 Dec 2015 21:32:42 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=68625#68625 Week on a WV mountain! : Great weekend plan a trip next... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=68622#68622 Author: Danny2

Same here. Went to Spruce Knob in the fall for a week, and it was wonderful to get away from DC :P]]> Wed, 25 Nov 2015 19:53:47 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=68097#68097 Week on a WV mountain! : Sounds like good use of the pod... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67831#67831 Author: sammycamper

Sounds like good use of the pod and it's off grid capabilities. Thanks for sharing. ]]> Sat, 14 Nov 2015 09:04:29 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67831#67831 Week on a WV mountain! : but it sounds like it (slide)... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67751#67751 Author: hogone

but it sounds like it (slide) didn't extend  upon arrival which i would assume battery was at full charge(or mostly charged). just my two cents but no other help!  hogone ]]> Tue, 10 Nov 2015 19:12:44 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67751#67751 Week on a WV mountain! : Going by your description I bet... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67745#67745 Author: techntrek

Going by your description I bet the battery was lower than you think, due to the furnace mostly.  You can't rely on the battery gauge to give you an accurate reading.  Best way to do it is by taking a voltage reading after letting it sit for 3 hours with no load on it.]]> Tue, 10 Nov 2015 18:02:11 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67745#67745 Week on a WV mountain! : Deer or not, it sounds like a... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67734#67734 Author: Leo B

Very cool. I love WV.

We last refilled the propane tank over memorial day, and I finally pulled it off yesterday. I estimate it has between a 1/4 to 1/2 left. We use it very liberally ]]> Mon, 09 Nov 2015 21:47:21 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67731#67731 Week on a WV mountain! : Just got back from five days in... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7201&PID=67725#67725 Author: Pilot

Just got back from five days in West Virginia (my home State) perched on the side of a mountain for bow hunting.
Boy those led lights don't use much power! I ran the light over the sink and one over the dinette plus the porch light some of the time and the boom box from dusk to 11 pm or so every night. Took on 15 gallons of water and used the sink as much as I pleased and after 5 days the battery indicated only half the juice gone. The fridge ran the whole time on propane and one night the furnace was required. Used the stove for coffee and cooking breakfast and dinner and did not run out. I did get two free dinners from cousins!
Very comfortable stay, had a great time but didn't get my deer.
The only problem was I couldn'd get the bump out to work. The motor ran but wouldn't catch. Had to help it out and had a heck of a time getting it in. Scheduled for waranty service.
