Pro Tip: If there's a theatrical supply house that sells lighting or a music store that caters to working bands (like Guitar Center or Sam Ash?) who carry their own lighting gear, you can get "gels" for filtering lighting in a bazillion different shades & colors for reducing the intensity of your LED lighting - my target is 3800°K-4000°K color temperature. Rosco and Lee are the two major gel makers on the planet; you can't go wrong with either. (Plus it's just fun to call someone up and ask if they'll sell you a "half-sheet of Rosco Bastard Amber.")

It figures. I just ordered replacement furniture (cloth this time!) from RecPro for my rv last Friday. My kids purchased furniture from a local low cost furniture store and their furniture material peeled just like my rv furniture. So I had no confidence in low cost furniture stores and went with cloth this time. Furniture is very expensive (as well as everything else) in CA. A friend of mine riding on an Amtrak through LA today sent me a picture of their fuel prices, $7.79 a gallon for regular. We pay a premium for great weather.

We added a tp topper 😍

Agree on TPMS, disagree on Tire Minder. My experience was terrible with that hot mess. First unit was difficult to pair, but I did eventually get it done. The display lasted less than 3 months before becoming so dim in was unreadable. To their credit, Valterra did replace it without fuss, then the pairing of transmitters to the new display was again, just not smooth. The second unit from day one, after about an hour on the road, first, one tire would alert for temp and pressure. Then another, eventually, all 6 were showing high temp. A power on/power off would reset everything back to normal, and the process would start all over again. It simply was not a product I could depend on.

The slide out drawers shown look really handy, but by the look of it they do seem to sacrifice some cupboard real estate between the drawer and the side of the cabinet and possibly under the drawer. They’re also really expensive and wonder if there is a more affordable (non-stainless steel?) alternative. Doing this for multiple cabinets would really add up. Great tip, though.

Great video, your channel has so much very informative content. I have placed an order for a RV, and have been watching all kinds of content to try to learn everything I can. Your channel seems to have some of the most detailed information, thank you. I have a high end mattress at home, and I am a huge fan of good mattresses. My RV (I don't have it yet) is going to be a travel trailer on the smaller size (17ft). Not of a size that supports a "mattress" unfortunately. The main bed is an area that doubles as a dining area, and the "mattress" is the pillows from the dining area being arranged in a mattress form factor. There is one upper bunk in it that has a one piece mattress, but there are thickness limitations there (it folds up for travel and when not in use). I may decide on putting a mattress topper on it once I get it and test it out. I am definitely going to bring a shower head and light filter with me when I go to pick up my trailer.

I just used a few heavy duty threaded bolts that went through the bottom of the framing into the plywood floor on the slide. to access the framing i just reclined the seats and went in from the front. i only put 2 or 3 bolts in... just enough to keep it from moving. you dont need a lot to keep it in place. you also need to make sure your bolts or screws dont penetrate through the floor or even poke through its on a slide. measure carefully and use the right bolts.

FYI, we've had our loveseat like yours for 2 years and traveled all across the USA. We didn't bolt it down,we slid it back to the wall to travel. We then pull it out so we can extend the leg support and lay it flat. It never moves out of place.

Some guys make comments to be cool, like this guy, as if color temp fixtures are an option for new buyers. 😂😂😂😂

Taking your white lights to yellow? Gross. People really like that yellow dull color? How do you wake up?

As mentioned in the video, its a personal preference mod. If you don't like it, dont do it, pretty simple. Thanks for watching and have a good day.

Ive been wondering how to get a good yellow, since those white lights are so bad for our eyes and sleep!! Thank you for this!!!

You should try softer lighting in your life, I think the exam room lighting you live in has affected your happiness.
