Tvan Tvan / Re: where you store the annex when travelling

Placed under the bed, right at the back. Still takes up heaps of room, but that's about the only option!

Not sure why you'd want to lock yourself in?

If you are camping in a place so dangerous, that you are afraid of being attacked/burgled/etc, then I'd suggest keeping on driving to somewhere more suitable?

Sometimes the mechanism gets stuck if not lubricated - use some WD40 or RP7 and see if that helps...

How about mounting a big one on the rear hatch - permanently? You could fit a 250w panel there...

I've been tempted to build in a small catch cover, so that items inside cannot jam the catch shut... Will consider it again now!

Only other option is to get a pole and push at anything blocking the catch via the small "tent pole" space in front of the kitchen - it goes the whole way through to the other side... There might be something blocking the catch.

Tvans traditionally have fairly high ball weights, so you will almost certainly need airbags in the rear...

Can you see through from the kitchen side what is going on?

I thought it was a 120w panel on the Firetail?

Our 2017 model Firetail  definitely has 120w...

Looking at what is around these days, you'd probably find a 150w panel to suit the same size but that's about it.

Nice one. Good to see there's a future for the team.

I added an extra one of these in the fibreglass hatch above the tent door (wiring is already in place - super easy)

That's a great buy - good luck with the sale!

Well - someone's scales are definitely out?
