Received the Joolca HotTap V2 water heater for my camp setup. Unfortunately upon putting everything together and priming the pump, water began to leak from inside the unit. Contacting Joolca support, I was told that they believe it to be a damaged washer and I’d need to send the main unit back to have it replaced.

That's interesting. About 10 years ago I fabricated a set up for my cabin shower. I first used a single tankless heater, and that worked in the summer. In the winter, not so much. So, I daisy chained 2 heaters. The first was a 7500W unit, and that ran into another 7500W unit with a thermostat. So, The first preheated the water and the second set the proper temp.

It worked great.... until just this last trip and my 2nd heater took a dirt nap. I have to turn the pressure way down to a dribble so the first can heat the water. I'm at least happy to have something to wash my butt.

Added: I looked at the Joolca unit and see it's propane. That's cool. I wanted an electric solution. I had the temp construction power, so I hooked up 2 dryer outlets, and used dryer cables to connect the heaters that I mounted in plastic tubs. Most people thought I was nuts with a shower set up beside the power panel, but it was all GFI protected, so I didn't care. :)

I built a little shower enclosure beside the breaker box. In the winter, standing outside completely commando with the steam rising. Nothing beats it.

Received my new (warrantied) power washer. I actually got it yesterday but was to tired after working to put it together so I did it first thing this morning. Sun Joe was great about replacing this and had this new one within a week of putting in the claim. Great company to deal with! Now it's time to do a full detail on the Ranger. ?

I was using it a last weekend to wash the garage floor and it started acted crazy. It would continue to run when I let go of the trigger and had to manual shut it off to get it to stop. Was ok once I turned it back on but I had intermittent pressure every so often. I called Sun Joe that Monday morning and they had a new one shipped out that afternoon.

I did the same as I had a small area that was dirty and next thing I knew the whole garage was clean. ?

Yes they do. That's why I had to give them a little shout out here. It's rare now a days to have a company go above and beyond for their customers without making them jump through hoops.

Some new Cooper Discoverer winter tires mounted on 17 inch steelies. Great deal and quick shipping. I feel bad for the brick and mortar tire places sometimes

I've been waiting for these to go down in price and got them lower than expected. I was just scanning through my Wish List Friday night and saw they were marked down to $63.70 from $100.00. I was mad I didn't buy these a year ago when they were at $75.00. I guess sometimes patience pays off. ?

I just took at look at River Colony Trading's Amazon page. Doesn't look like they are available now. Do you happen to have an active link. Thanks

So I went and bought this service step for detailing my Ranger. Us short guys/gals need all the help we can get. ? It'll come in handy for reaching the hood, windshield, working on the engine and also getting stuff in/out of the bed. It's really well made and heavy duty and folds up nice to store it. I also like the tire levelers which keep it planted tight against tires while you're on it. You can but direct from Northern Tool also.

Wow, doesn’t the tread on that step seem way too aggressive? Better be careful with that bad boy.

I used it the other day to reach the middle of the hood applying some gloss enhancer. It's actually nice and keeps your feet from sliding while you're reaching in. I wouldn't step on it barefoot though. lol

Looks great! May I ask how long and how much?
Go through stage 3 motor sports and buy their raptor grille. It’s what I have on mine. Same quality and looks the exact same for 300 bucks and you can get the amber lights as well. Don’t pay 500 lol. Unless u want to
