Went camping again in the 6.0 this weekend with the dog near Mt Mitchell, NC and had a great time.  I made use of my Off Road package and took several dirt/gravel roads to the campsite and trailer did awesome!

- I replaced a constantly blowing 15amp fuse with a 20amp fuses (as suggested in another thread) that powers the USB ports and this seems to have fixed my fuse issue.

- I received my awning last week and made use of it this past weekend.  I liked it more than I thought I would, but the short cotton ropes and sharpe metal tent pegs had to go.  I replaced the rope with orange (increased visibility) para cord, plastic tent stakes, and Figure 9 rope tensioner.  Everything worked well and I recommend it to any  QS 6.0 owner...

This is a pretty little spot! Mind if I use the picture on the Livin Lite facebook page? You name doesn't have to be attached if you don't want it to be :-)

I sent a message with the pic to Livin Lite RV on Facebook.  Will that work?  Thanks....

[font face="comic sans ms"]  Cowfly,




The 20A. fuse is a Band-Aid, not a fix. I consider it to be a potential safety issue. The circuitry was designed to operate using a 15A. fuse, and it appears to be malfunctioning. Another member on this forum posted and said that initially everything was good, but one morning he awoke to an electrical problem which was solved by upsizing one of the 15A. fuses. Since there are multiple units experiencing this same problem I suspect, as other members have also posted, that the power supply control board may be the culprit? This would certainly be a warranty issue. However, the most important issue is not waking up at night in a smoke filled cabin.
