In these pics I installed a wire shelf in front storage (no genny) & mounted my air compressor, ran hose to a retracting reel in propane cabinet with a switched plug so I don't have to contort to reach switch on compressor.

Here I put a tee on curbside propane bottle & added a 6' & 12' hose with a hook behind air hose reel, now I can put my grill a safe distance away from coach.

Wow, not sure if I would want an electrical outlet that may cause a spark / arc when plugging something in or unplugging something right next to my propane bottle since on a hot day a full bottle may vent a little propane sometimes. JMHO

I turned the tall, shallow coat closet by the entry door on our GK into a soda and liquor cabinet. I added 2 shelves. The cabinet is 8 inches deep and we stand 12 pk cokes on end to store them. The two shelves above them are to hold liquor, boxed and bottled wine and tonic water.

How we connected our portable grill to the propane system

We did a quick connect propane connection after the change over valve. We use it mainly for our portable grill. It can also be used for the Honda EU2000i generator (converted to propane). Started out to connect it with a Y on the curb side bottle but this way we can use both tanks just like the coach itself.

Price about $150 including the special long hose and all the fittings.

Basil,

How did you convert your Honda EU2000i to propane? Any experience with propanecarbs.com?

Hi Ken,

We bought our system at Generator sales.com

http://www.generatorsales.com/order/...i_Tri_Fuel_Kit



It works fine, very easy to install and is actually a trip fuel kit so you can run the generator on gasoline as before, natural gas and propane.

We have not used it so much so we are happy we did not invest $5.000 in a built in generator. We plan to use it just from time to time when parked at Walmart to top off the batteries.
As you can see in my earlier post in this thread is uses the same quick connect for the propane as my Weber grill does.

Thought we would "tone down" the skylight in the shower area.

I removed the inner dome and put a piece of faux stained glass material over top and taped it down. Used some material that is like window tint, except it was much thicker. Used blue painters tape since light still showed through the white plastic. Also, should be easy to remove later if we want versus using duct tape or the like. Had the stained glass stuff left over from some windows I did a few years ago. Did not actually stick it to the skylight.
