30-year-old Wilk puff up
Hello, I’ve also had a caravan for a few months now. I bought a 30-year-old Wilk CI for a little money, which was only on a fixed campsite since its first registration. It is year 1980 and already 1982 the TüV expired. After some repairs it worked with TüV and registration but super. Since in front of the caravan stood probably mostly an awning and the caravan was probably only used for sleeping, the interior is still in a great condition for the old one. At the second glance, however, there are a lot of things on the cart. The aluminium strips and especially the seals no longer make the best impression. In some places, water also seems to have reached the intermediate wall. The screws don’t hold there anymore, as the strips are probably rotten. (Are only a few places). Besides, my previous owners had fun at Window Color, which you can’t get off at all. The awning was simply screwed with eyelets to the outer wall. There are j My project: – Remove all aluminium profile rails – Remove outer skin – Replace Morse mouldings – Seal holes in the outer wall from the rear with kit or sealing compound – Reattach outer wall – Glue outer wall with foil (http://www.motor-talk.de/…/…eben-statt-lacquerieren-t2393379.html?…) – Reattach seals to the bottom of the mouldings (Where can I get them?) – Screw-on strips – Retread fillers and ends (Where can I get them?) – The roof I have a dry barn in which I can carry out this work. For difficult work I can rely on correspondingly skilled helpers. I would like to hear your opinion, whether this project can be carried out as I do the thinking? I would estimate costs of 500 to 700 euros. After that, however, the caravan would certainly make another 30 years. At the display windows a plastic profile was attached to the frame. I have not found any source of supply yet. If someone else has a tip I would be very pleased. Thank you for your contributions.http://data.motor-talk.de/…/…130404-140042-81691330807866468.jpghttp://data.motor-talk.de/…130404-140036-59710788376682503845.jpghttp://data.motor-talk.de/…/…0130404-140118-932215051764594132.jpghttp://data.motor-talk.de/…130404-140138-1897469327625031826.jpghttp://da ta.motor-talk.de/…/…130404-140111-73724942142395855.jpg

Caravan roof hatches Sealing
Hello I have to reseal at our caravan all dachluken. Now I have filled on the Keder rails already the screw holes with Sikaflex 221 to prevent that no water enters, because he gets anyway still completely new groin filler. Now I read however the Sikaflex 221 is not UV resistant. Does this now something because of the Keder rails ? And should I prefer to take something else for the roof hatches and the oven tube ? Thank you already for your answers

Rain protection/canopy for sliding door wanted. Classic awning or are there alternatives?
Hello, after our self-developed crafter (here we go to the expansion thread) is now practically finished, we are looking for a kind of canopy solution. Maybe you have an idea, which could best fit for us. We have the following requirements:1) Weight: Since four-wheel drive, 2+2 persons and max. 3.5t zGGw is weight “the” topic (for which we want to make many compromises and of course also have to. Please do not have any discussion about this, because everything is clear about this. )2) Use: Since we are mainly free, we are primarily looking for a solution that protects the direct area of the sliding door from rain and sun if necessary and does not need to be tensed or supported. We do not “camp” after all. A canopy (as it offers a normal awning or a sun sail, under which you can also sit properly and which of course also needs to be tensed or supported is Prio 2. Of course, you first think of an awning, which can be extended a small piece without having to support it immediately. Nevertheless, I wonder if there might be a clever solution, which might work in a Kederschiene or similar and would be much lighter than an awning.3) Size: The solution doesn’t have to be huge. If you can sit under it in a completely built state and find some shade, that’s enough. More important is that the direct area of the sliding door is covered. 4) F eatures: Options like electric motor is completely unimportant, because probably means more weight. The possibility of lighting would be nice but absolutely dispensable…5) Mounting: An additional roof rack to which the whole would be attached would be great, because I would have a solution for planned work lights and a solar panel at the same time but I guess a roof rack alone could hardly be found under 50kg of own weight? Consequently, only the awning would remain directly on the roof But there are again tens of different solutions/variants. Long story short: What would you be looking for? Which solution would you prefer? Who had similar requirements especially with regard to weight.

Refrigerator Does not cool properly on gas
Hello, I have in my camper an electrolux fridge, the Womo is from 1994. The fridge had not cooled properly on gas. Then I went to a workshop because I did not have the suitable tool on the trip. This then cleans the burner and the chimney, afterwards everything worked again. Day over about 7° and night down to 2°. Now I have the problem that he from one to the other day not really cooled tomorrows I had 2°C and in the evening then 11 At night at an outside temperature of 10° it did not come below 8°. I checked the flame and it still looks like at the workshop. As a result I am on a campsite and with electricity it cools perfectly. I have installed an extra fan for heat dissipation, because I am in Norway and the temperatures rarely rise above 20° day I think that is uninteresting. Now the consideration is to buy a compressed air can and Are there any other solutions/ideas?

Mobile air conditioning for campers, caravans and co
How are your experiences with mobile air conditioners? Yesterday I got an advertising email from Ecoflow, which now sells not only powerstations, but also a compressor air conditioner with battery operation: Here’s a test:https://www.techstage.de/…/2g42h5s and here’s the device:https://www.ecoflow.com/en/wave-2-portable-air-conditioner So far I only know the small split devices, where you hang the external part in front of windows, for example the Euro AC 2400. not self-sufficient with battery. Or the evaporation air conditioners, which only work in dry heat. Or devices for fixed installation with 12V/24V For the Ecoflow you would have to drill a hole in wall, floor or ceiling, or pierce a window to get rid of the warm exhaust air. In the caravan you might also be able to put the device in the storage compartment, next to the gas bottles. At least a large additional battery is useful if you want to stand self-sufficiently, optimally natural at 540W power consumption I put PV on the roof.
