Has anyone used any of the fire suppression systems that look like tubes filled with gas that kills a fire in a compartment like the Blazecut or similar? I would like to add some to my engine/generator/aquahot and battery compartments.

Anyone have experience with Reeves Coach repair in Waynesboro Ga.? I am purchasing unit #647 and Reeves has had it for repairs and service for exactly 3 weeks, He states that Newell has all the parts and he is waiting to receive them. When parts are in stock it doesn't take three weeks to receive them. I'm beginning to smell a rat.

Thank you for the add to this group! I have reading as much as I can and learning about Newells. I am looking to upgrade from my HR Vacationer, she's been good to me and my Labs but we need more space for our travels across the US. I travel by myself across the US and so am looking for a good solid, quality build coach and have learned Newell is one of the top ones to own. 
Any advice for my search is greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
Wendy

After reading about all the different methods and tools, along with the advice of a local mechanic, I decided to pop for the Amprobe ULD-405 Ultrasonic Leak Detector.  I have tried a cheap one on Amazon, but didn't like the quality, nor did I trust it.

I made a short video to talk about it, if you're interested:

I will eventually make my way to the engine area for some de-greasification and sealification. (I should put those in the dictionary for new words of 2021) I came across this deep oil pan on ebay. is it worth the time to swap my standard pan for this?

Greetings All,
    Wasn't sure where to post this, but I am leaving on a short trip that will take me through PA and into Ohio and back between 11/20 and 11/27.

If anyone is along the route-ish I'd sure love to meet you!

If I put this in the wrong place..sorry!

So I finally got around to mounting the safe again. Done.

So now I need a lock for it. Looks like a regular cylinder lock that activates a solid pin or rod.

The safe is marked Hadon Security Co. But that may have been a dealer.

Anyone know what kind of lock it is?

Hey guys so we are getting our 1980 coach ready for our trip to the smokies Monday and I noticed no brake lights so I checked fuses some seemed nasty and old so I swapped them, no lights, I then checked the hazards switch, all works, now I’m looking for the brake switch and there is nothing that looks like a brake switch near the brake pedal, i then take the brake lights out, 0 volts when no brake applied, 0 volts when brake is applied, headlights turn on and marker lights on 6 volts, brake apply with all lights on 6 volts. What am I missing please help before we have to cancel our trip. Any advice where the brake switch.
