As much as we love our Tesla Model S, we’ve decided it’s time for a change and will be trading our beloved Tesla in this summer. After much test-driving, measuring, test-fitting (in the car hauler), re-measuring, discussing, more test-driving, etc… We’ve ordered our next vehicle.
As you may recall, we announced CoachProxy some time back and we are currently in the beta test phase of the release. The beta program is going very well and I did something you may not have expected this soon. We think this is really cool and wanted to share Read more
We decided to add LEDs behind the valances of our coach windows. We’ve seen some other brands that have a similar setup, but they appear to be down the sides of the windows and cause a lot of light bleed to the outside, even with the night shades down. We only put them along the top valance and found that this gives plenty of light without any bleed outside when the shades are down.
The LED strips we used are color changing (red/green/blue – RGB) strips. I also went with WiFi control modules for them so we could adjust the color and brightness from our smart-phones.
Thanks for the original idea from David of OutsideOurBubble.com!

Spending a large portion of our time in the desert south west, we’ve come to the conclusion that 2 stage filtration and a water softener simply isn’t sufficient. Plus, with the hardness of the water in this area, we’re having to regenerate the water softener every week (about a 30 to 45 minute job). It’s not particularly difficult, but gets old after 10 weeks..
So, we decided to move to a Reverse Osmosis system for the whole RV. (more…)
