It was good to see a full class. The RV field is indefinitely in need of good techs and inspectors. It seems the older we get the more we enjoy school.

Any investment in yourself for knowledge is priceless!

Thank you for sharing. Go Navy!

Awesome as always you two!!!!!!

I took their flash drive course six months ago (full time solo) and I keep their information handy! It is a lot of information and I worked on it two hours a day during initial covid and now I have the tools to do more troubleshooting and problem solving when something “tweaks”! I would still love to go for the week long class to be more capable but this has been a wonderful stop gap until I CAN get there!

You've convinced me. I'm headed that way this winter and plan to stay at the RV park and take the school. Thanks!

Nice Video. Really cool to see people wanting to be able to fix/trouble shoot their own stuff. It is tough to find a good repair company! I went to RV school, 20 years in the navy fixing everything on frigates and destroyers! Go Navy!

Great video as usual... training classes can be tough that early, except when the end result is you just might save yourself $$$$$. The second enhancement is the knowledge and familiarization of systems in your rig. Boot camp all over again😉. Can’t wait to see all the new camera/production gear added to the overall coach weight... 👍 stay safe happy travels 🇺🇸🏅

Just started the online course. After about 36 years of RVing, I'm learning a lot of new things - and I've just gotten through the first part! Todd is knowledgeable but also adds a lot of humour to the course. Already I know it's well worth the money, and I wish I could take the hands on course, but as we are not full-time, that may be a while...Athens, Texas is a long ways from Vancouver, BC, Canada, when you have a full-time job still :) Thanks for sharing your knowledge as well Phil & Stacy - we really enjoy your videos and are also really enjoying RV Unplugged!

Think of electricity like water... Resistance is the same as flow restrictions, Voltage is the same as pressure, and current is the same as fluid velocity.

@Milesco

3 жыл бұрын

*Exactly!* (Although to be more precise, I would say that current is like the rate [but not necessarily the _velocity]_ of fluid flow -- like the number of gallons per minute of water flowing thru a pipe [regardless of the actual velocity of the water molecules]. Indeed, electrical current is measured in coulombs per second, where a coulomb is basically just a bucket of electrons. [About 6 million trillion. Which is a lot, but electrons are small!]) ________________________ (An ampere is one coulomb per second of current flow.)

Only recently subscribed due to being in the early throws of purchasing an Allegro Breeze here in Australia but much as I love your informative videos it's like listening to someone speaking a different language. So many of the terms you use are so foreign to us Aussies, " Boondocking " I can only think would be what we would call " Free Camping " but there are so many other terms I have no idea about. The RV America scene is much more advanced than here in Aus a Breeze is really the largest coach here except for some converted 40 ft buses. Keep up the good work but maybe more worldly explanations.
