One difference is that with a converter you can run 12v stuff all the time as long as you are plugged in and not drain the batteries.

I could with the 13, and it had no convertor..
see my statement above...

I am not quite sure what folks are using on thier 12v that would run thier batteries down faster than you can charge, unless it's incandecants.
I have replaced ALL my incandescants again with LEDs and cold cathodes, which it what I had in the 13.
I prefer the light. If you look at the pics at the begining of this thread, it's all low current draw stuff. The stock incandescants look pale yellow in comparison. Maybe I am just used to the blue LEDs, but they seem LESS blue in this trailer than the 13. They are newer, so they may have improved them as well.

Here is the "stuff" stuck to the little shelves. The butyl holds stuff tight. Can't ask for more than that!
Yes, those are Space Needles. I have a large collection of them.. too many! Here is a good use for them!
The only problem I have with this arrangement is I can see that before my pans get used, they will need a bit of a rinse before use. The dogs are a little too close for my tastes.. but, theres not a lot to do. They see "bed" and think "mine!"
They don't get into anything, but the proximity is wierd.

Gina, It's kinda sad that you sold your old 13' Burro before I got a chance to see it and meet you. You had talked about it so much and shown so many pictures of it that I almost expected it to start writing posts of its own.
So sad. But you're making up for it by turning your new trailer into a whole new character in FiberglassLand. :-)

Peter, if you run out to I-5 right about now, you can probably see it going over the Marquam bridge!
They drove down from Seattle to get it, and are bring it back home this week.
I have tried to get him to look at this site. I am not sure if he has. Maybe he will bring him to a rally up there sometime
It won't be red.. he plans on repainting it.

Hi Gina... man you did a great job on your egg. I sure wish my wife was into my scamp. I pretty much do it all alone while she is in the house.  My question to you is this. Do you tow yours with a Wrangler? Just wondering because I tow my 13' Scamp with my Wrangler also. You don't see it very often. Sure makes for a cool set-up going down the road too.
In any case you did a great job and should be really proud...  Peace

Gina, Were they towing it with a white van-type vehicle? If so, I may have seen it yesterday stopped at a grocery near Newport, Oregon. Now I wish I had stopped!

Pat, thanks, and I tow with a Red Liberty.. still a Jeep..
Vivian, I was not there when they picked it up, but Fred was. I know they had an Astro Van.
Fred, what color???
If the trailer was white on top, and red on the bottom, with non symetrical borders, that was them! No other trailer looks like that.
Since they are headed to Sequim off the 101, it most likely was! They could have done I-5 or the 101, don't know.
