I would post more but I am having trouble with the picture uploader.  This is my Andersen hitch.   Pic also shows the double gas bottles.   The battery was changed to two six volt AGMs which are located in the right rear under the sink.   Also visible is the trailer valet which does not travel with us--we just use it at home to park the trailer close to the garage.   You can see the Prodigy RF brake controller mounted on the inside of the right hand A frame.   If this works I will post some other mods with pictures.  
Tomorrow we head out to southern Utah--Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, etc.

Well that seemed to go well.   Here is the roof showing the 150 watt solar panel, directional TV antenna, Fantastic Upgraded fan in the middle in place of the AC.   We boon dock so the AC is not used.   The fan works well to keep the interior cool in any thing below 80F and low humidity.   Also shown is the fantastic vent fan in the bath.  
Can not seem to get the pic in--will try later.

Are the AGMs compatible with the on board charging system?
