We spent three nights there about a week ago. Yes there are airboats running from about 9a to 5p, but they were not as frequnet of as loud as I expected. These are not open exhaust motors from the airboats I knew earlier in life. We actually took a tour on one and it was fun. If you are looking for silence, this is not your place, but it was not that objectionable to us.

We did pick one of the lots on the far end where the channel is a bit wider, and that may have helped with the noise. I think we were on #27. Several other Prevost were there.

They describe the area as a cross between the Keys and the Panhandle, and that seems about right.

Enjoy

Peter,

I found your post and followed the link to the Product Safety Commission. The link is shut down for now. I found the information on Cadet’s site. http://cadetheat.com/heater-upgrade-program Thanks for the information. I bet there a a ton of them still out there and in use….

In May 2009 I put four of these in for about a thousand bucks. Based on the evidence today, they will last a few more years. Consider the cost / expected life balance to determine value. If batteries are changed at 5 years, then the cheapest battery that will last 5 years will do.

You didn’t charge long enough Ronald. You don’t want to shut down until the batteries are at float. Mine takes 2 -3 hours to bring six 4D’s back up to float from a discharge of around 50%, or 12 -12.2. You want the bulk/absorption charge to be at least 28.6 and float 13.3, assuming you have AGM Lifelines.

Yes, but it also turns off when the key is on. I checked that. I also have an outlet labeled “Plumbing bay outlet” back by the starter on the bulkhead. I don’t understand the lable either, but it also goes dead with the key on.

Is it too early to start drinking?

Well, everyone loves an update…..

I can now announce that because of my issue, Andrew Davidson (who does the Crestron programming for Jeff Rowe in collaboration with Liberty) has confirmed and Frank Koenigseder has verified that there is an issue with the Crestron programming. Specifically, the video feed does not just utilize the internal wifi but rather sends the signal via cellular to the web and back again. What that means for me is that while I am driving and watching the rear view camera I am actually streaming video in both directions using cellular data. This summer I drove 7500 miles streaming video both ways which, you can understand, uses a lot of data.

Now, while this does not solve the initial question of the “unlimited” data, its fix will enable an overall lower data usage that will certainly lessen the difficulties in administration of a new plan with reasonable terms and limits so that I, at least, don’t have to utilize my backup plan of switching to my AT&T account when using the bus if overall Verizon usage is high. Others who haven’t set up such a system will not have this option, so will have to be more concerned with their usage than I will, but it should in the end make everyone more comfortable if not happy.

Finally, I want to reiterate that Frank and Liberty Coach have been working hard to fix this and I think that our collaboration will end up with a better solution for all. Although the beginnings had some moments of tension over the bill, the resulting decrease in unnecessary data use and the clarification of policies will ultimately lead to a more stable, long-term, convenient solution for all.

The auto start function is not the auto on the front screen. The auto start function in in the setup menus. The front screen that is shown in the above pictures is for total inverter function. Off, inverter is off, on inverter is on and working, auto inverts when other electricty is not available, srch search for the preset load before inverting.

The auto start function is in the setup menus,.
