I'm seeing other September order-ers getting their production calls (!) so we're working on finalizing our options. I have a few questions-
If you ordered extra electrical outlets, how many did you get and where were they placed?
What is the benefit of having a 12 volt plug... or two?
What are your opinions on the battery options?
Has anyone added an aftermarket brake light in/near the back window?
Will we regret not attaching the hose tube to the trailer? We're thinking of leaving it off.
ANYTHING else we should be thinking of? What are your best recommendations?
Extra outlets help you to have one where you need it, much like home. Be sure to get the outside outlet.
The high brake lights cost too much but I got them anyway. The lower lights can easily be blocked by bicycles. I plan to add a motorcycle flasher unit to them when I add LEDs, if the snow ever melts.
The larger battery is worth it if you are doing any boondocking.
The 12-volt outlet lets you run things like a Television, fan, charge phone, and other accessories. I buy every 12 VDC camping device that I see in the thrift stores.
I also added a separate 12 volt circuit for ham radio equipment.
We had a good discussion with Scamp when it came our turn a year ago during that phone call in pre-build. Very happy and have most options that they offer. We camped all last summer with few regrets.
Am I correct in understanding that the 12 volt outlets are the only outlets with power when running solely off battery?
I should have mentioned we are getting a standard 16, layout 6.
Yes, no AC unless you plug in or add an aftermarket inverter. Many buy 12 VDC equipment when ever possible.
Yay! They called!
They gave mid-July as a pickup date, but I'm hoping they're underpromising.
