[VAC] Re: Leveling Jack Crank



Hi B W Ganoe,

Suggestion:

1 - Now that you know you have a 12 volt leads at your jack post, perhaps one of the jack post
lights (that wrap around the post and have an on/off switch) would add new convenience to your after
sunset arrivals in campgrounds. 

2 - If you're really gung ho, and if you have a flag pole holder attached to your jack post, and if
you have a tall flag pole for your USA flag, there are 12 volt spotlights for illuminating the flag
after dark, i.e. at rallies or on a caravan. A simple two prong rubber plug could tap off the
existing leads to your jack post light and not be in the way when the spot light isn't in use.

3 - Then, there are the 12 volt decorative holiday lights, i.e. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas,
Independence Day, etc. depending on your interest.

See that? I can think up ways to run down your batteries while boondocking without solar panels. Of
course, that wouldn't be an issue if electric hookups were available to run the Univolt.
