also bought a set of theseand mounted to a board so they don't tip over. Work great and we picked up a bunch more room. Got a few more mods up my sleeve, thanks to RVNET!

The stuff I got has a 1/8” mesh.

Here is the stuff placed under the furnace vent plate. The furnace is in operation and has been for about 10 minutes when I took the picture. Wanted to make sure the aluminum screening was durable enough.

Here is what it looks like on the water heater vent opening. That one was easiest as the square screen piece put in by the manufacturer just popped out and back in.

Now I just need to figure out a way to screen off the vent by the refrigerator.
New to the Trailer world, is there a reason to cover these vents? I read something about bugs. I just bought my first real trailer and would like to keep it as nice as possible.

D.MillsS77--Many do it. I asked the dealer when I picked up my new camper. They do not suggest it.

I was told with my first HTT that warranties were voided if you put the screens on but does not seem to be the case any more. I have the screens on everything, but not home-made ones, I bought the ones mades specifically for my appliances to ensure a good fit and to be sure I do not impede air flow. Where we live, they are a must over all openings where propane is used because mud daubers will build their nests in a matter of days when I am parked. I've even had mud daubers build a nest on one of my A/C fan fins. Tried to get a screen for the A/C on my new HTT but no luck. Just need to make sure I run the A/C every so often so they don't have time to get busy up there.

After having one or two "experiences" with arriving after dark at campgrounds, I decided I needed to do something to add a bit of extra lighting to my HTT. Twice I've run into having to back into very tight approaches to our site and during the day this would prove no obstacle, but with poor lighting at night, this was quite challenging.
I started looking at mounting some aftermarket driving lamps under the rear bumper to illuminate both rearward and alongside the wheels. That's about the time that I stumbled on the Blazer Heavy Duty Magnetic Work Light.
![[image]](http://ebay.wnyserv.com/htmods/LampMod1.jpg)
These things come with a 20' cable wired to a cigarette lighter plug. I ended up buying two of these from Tractor Supply. I promptly chopped off the cigarette lighter adapters and added Anderson Powerpoles to each lamp.
The next thing I needed to do was get power out to the rear bumper. Conveniently, my converter on my X19H is right below the rear bunk, so I was able to go right up through the flooring to grab power. I ran this to a 4-Flat trailer extension (wired as two hots and two grounds -- the exposed post being a ground).
![[image]](http://ebay.wnyserv.com/htmods/LampMod2.jpg)
The 4-Flat has a weather-protective cap to keep this thing out of the elements.
Since I wanted to be able to use either one lamp by itself or two together, I made an adapter from the other side of the 4-Flat to two Anderson Powerpoles.
![[image]](http://ebay.wnyserv.com/htmods/LampMod3.jpg)
And with two matings of Powerpoles... let there be light!
![[image]](http://ebay.wnyserv.com/htmods/LampMod4.jpg)
With the magnets on these things, I can easily position them above/below the rear bumper to illuminate behind the trailer and along the side to spot the wheels for a pivot into a tight site. And since they are not fixed permanently to the bumper and come with 20' cords, I can easily use them as work lamps during other aspects of camping.

Has anyone mounted a flat screen TV on a swivel mount? I am concerned as to how to actually mount this because i am not familiar with whats behind the walls (e.g. i need it to be string enough to take the movements). I see allot of people mount them on the cabinet but in my case this is not an option. Of the two walls I can mount it on one is the wall around the fridge and seems weak and the other is the main wall. I suspect the later is the best to mount it on but not sure if either is strong enough.. Any suggestions?
I have a Coachman Freedom Express 17SDX.
