El Chup, what digital thermostat model did you use out of curiosity? None of the RV shops around my neck of the woods carry anything and most people I talk to provide confusing information about what will work and what wont (ie most thermostats apparently run off 24v whereas my camper battery is a 12v)
I'm oblivious when it comes to this stuff, so would be curious to know what digital thermostats are being used out there by those who've done the conversion....

I used a cheap one from Walmart. Regular home thermostat, AA battery powered, furnace only. (I don't have A/C in my camper.) I don't remember the manufacturer, but Google search for "Walmart rv thermostat" and you'll find all the info you need. It's about $15-20.
The one I got doesn't have programmable on/off time and date, just a simple setting for the temp you want, and an on/off switch. It has vertical doors on the sides, one hides the batteries, and I can't remember what's behind the other door.
I'm out of the country right now, or I'd go out to the camper and look for you.

Thanks guys - had some time on my hands yesterday so I just ended up buying a Honeywell 'low voltage' thermostat at the Home Depot around here and figured for the low cost I'd give it a go....sure enough, it works like a charm. It may not be perfect, but it does the trick and will be better than the old merc setup....no idea why so many people I asked had conflicting views and often said the home thermostats wouldnt work...guess in the end, its always worth a try!

This gem was parked in the Albertson's parking lot on Friday morning. They were form Germany.
My 1984 Westy is pretty cool, but I'd like to have one of these.

Check this little rig out, AWD and a decent price all things considered...

That thing looks like a great deal.
Here's another one that looks pretty great:

Cheaper, but just as effective if you can do a small build out and deal with the mileage hit of a gasser:

If I had a parking spot and $6400 I'd probably own this today
http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/3297017968.htmlBe careful about buying snowboard goggles for skiing. Snowboard goggles come in right eye and left eye (for goofy-footers) dominant models. This can make it hard to see correctly when skiing because you are facing straight down the hill, not sideways.
