  • Can the TempMinder Run Off 12v Power?
  • The power cord included with the TempMinder Electronic Weather Station # MRI-823MXC (that you're seeing in the video) is a 4.5v AC/DC adapter- not just for AC power. You will be able to use this with the 12v power supply without running your inverter.

  • How to Inflate Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs
  • You can inflate the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Rear Kit, # F2286, using an air compressor like some people have at home or that can be found at service stations. I recommend the Firestone Level Command II - Single-Gauge with Standard-Duty Compressor - Single Function, # F2158. You can control inflation/deflation from the comfort of your vehicle cab with the push of a button. I have included a link below to the installation details.

  • What Type of Connection is Used for the Auxiliary Input on Jensen Heavy Duty Mechless RV Stereo?
  • The AUX input on the Jensen Heavy Duty Mechless RV Stereo # JHD1130B is a 3.5mm audio input jack that is accessed via a flip down cover on the front of the unit. This stereo has the ability to receive signals from the 7 NOAA weather radio stations throughout the country, but the stereo is required to be powered on and tuned to your closest available NOAA frequency in order to receive that signal. Because of that, you won't have to worry about the radio drawing power from your battery at night.

  • What is Weight of Curt Hitch # C11329 and How Long to Install by Shop
  • The Curt hitch part # C11329 weighs 22 lbs which wouldn't make any noticeable difference for traction on a front wheel drive car. We've sold quite a few hitches over the years and we've yet to have anyone come back and tell us that winter weather traction was ever effected. Curt lists this hitch as taking about 45 minutes for a shop to complete the install. So less than an hour at their current shop rate. Most shops would charge at least one hour to do the install.

  • Installing WeatherTech Custom-Fit Floor Mats for Correct Fit in 2018 Chevy Equinox
  • WeatherTech produces its custom-fit floor mats to exactly match a vehicle's dimensions but what can happen is that while the floor mats are in their shipping cartons they can take on some bends and their shape can change slightly. This can make it appear that they are not the correct size. But there is a simple fix. Preferably in a warm sunny spot in the home fold the mats inside-out and lay them on the floor in the sun for a few hours. This gentle warming tends to allow the mat material...

  • Can a Tail Light Isolating Diode System Be Used on a Chevy Colorado with Separate Brake Light
  • Yes, you can use the 4-Diode System, part # 38955, to wire your Colorado. As you pointed out, the turn and brake signals will not longer be on separate bulbs. The diodes should be sealed enough that they will hold up mounted near the tail lights. I would not put them in direct exposure to rain or road water. I would mount them behind the tail light housings using the light fixture seal to block out most of the rain water. I would also use a dab of dieletric grease, part # 11755, at each...

  • Does 30 Amp to 15 Amp Adapter Plug Boost Power
  • In your scenario, since your RV hooks up to 30 amps and your household plug is the typical 15 amp what you would need is the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter Plug - 30 Amp Female to 15 Amp Male # A10-1530ARDVP. And in regards to the power it is accurate that when using the 15 amp adapter, and since you have a 20 amp breaker, you can pull up to 20 amps before your breaker trips. So you will be limited in the power consumption, and will need to continue to count amps - it will not boost...

  • Does MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent Work With Lid Closed
  • The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent does work with the lid closed, as it has a ceiling fan mode which allows you to close the lid and use the the vent in the same way a ceiling fan in a home operates. So it isn't the exact same thing because there isn't a way to vent the air with the lid closed, but it still allows air circulation and does so with equal performance power. This roof vent has 10 speeds and has a rain shield so it can be used in all types of weather, and even has a thermostat which...
