Do you mind tell me what model thermostat and for which ac make?

Honeywell Pro 1000 - this is the Heat only model that replaced the factory installed slider model that came with the Atwood furnace. No more guessing what the temperature is

You just answered my question when I read your original post. I've wanted to change mine out and our local RV parts shop told me that he has never seen one for 12V systems??? I'll be checking out your Honeywell, thank you sir!

Bought a Suburban NT-20SEQ Furnace for it to replace the aging pilot light model it currently has.

Getting closer on being done with the big ticket purchases [emoticon]

Oh, also bought a Dometic Duo-therm Brisk II w/the interior non-ducted air box for $449 (Without shipping, that was an extra $93).

Other than the battery boxes and the tanks, just about done with big ticket items [emoticon]

Added another solar panel. 160 watts (made in USA). Now have slightly over 260 watt system with MPPT controller.

If anyone is considering a new panel I got this one off eBay. Really nice brand new panel, three day free shipping, and packaged really well, $165.

But I just looked at your 160w from Ebay and that looks like a smok'n deal....It is a mono panel which is considered better than the poly panels. And $164 including shipping is just about as low priced as I've ever seen panels. Thanks!
