Re: Fuse sizes in TAG XL
That's what nüCamp says, but I think they've underrated the circuit; I believe it should be 10A, as the fan draws 4A by itself.
Re: What works connected to 20amp?
I've run our 2017 T@G on 20 amp many times. No microwave, but with AC running and small K-cup coffee maker used frequently. I do use a heavy duty power cord to connect to the shore power. It's much less of a hassle to deal with over the 30 amp cord. The only time I've had trouble was with a wimpy GFI breaker on a shore power box one time.
Re: Battery Disconnect Switch
That depends on how the 7-way pigtail is wired on the trailer; most trailers have the 12V feedline from the tow vehicle wired directly into the trailer battery (our T@Gs should all be wired this way), but some have the 12V feedline from the tow vehicle wired through the switch. You should also have 12VDC power from the tow vehicle going to your trailer brakes regardless of whether the switch is on or off, for safety's sake.
The advantage of towing with the switch turned on is that any 12V kitchen appliances you have - like a fridge or powered icebox - will be powered up from the tow vehicle while you're underway, so any cold food & drinks you're carrying in the camper will actually be cold when you get to your campsite.
Personally, my T@G's battery is switched off when the camper is parked between trips or when it's in storage. Otherwise I turn it on when I load up for a trip and leave it on 'til I get home and unload.
Re: Battery Disconnect Switch
Yes to what you are thinking, and you will want it ON when towing so that the tow vehicle will charge the battery, and so that the trailer brakes will work. Basically, you want it ON when attempting to charge the battery via solar or shore power AND when attempting to utilize it as a power source. It connects and disconnects the battery from the trailer.
Re: Vent opening under 2022 TAG Outback
I drive on a lot of gravel roads and have never seemed to have a problem with the bottom vent but I keep my cowbells plugged with a couple of sponges.

@ras, I appreciate your problem solving mindset and thinking low-tech. So, I looked at what my plumbing looks like and it is 
not pretty for using the dip-stick method...

Re: Rust on trailer tongue
I took was going to suggest Ohpho....I would take a scraper to the "loose" powder coat and peel it off..that rust is going to work it's was under the powder to any available moisture. If it was mine, 1. scrape, sand, grinder back to clean metal and solid powder coat. 2. then treat all exposed metal with Ospho which renders the rust insert. And 3. paint of your choose....I'd lean to POR 15. It has a shiny hard finish that will closely mimic the powder coat.
Re: Replace the Yeti with a 12VCooler
@Poliver - What model refrigerator was used for this upgrade?poliver said:We just picked up our NEW 2021 T@G XL and as everyone knows, they have replaced the fridge with a Yetti. Certainly nothing wrong with the Yetti. They work very well and will keep ice for up to 8 days. But, we wanted a hard wired front door fridge with with a small freezer (for ice cubes).
A few cabinet modifications needed to be done but nothing crazy. Our dealer Kelders trailer sales looked after everything. Very happy with the switch.

Re: Water pressure regulator
I always use one on my city water connection; a habit I got into years ago when I hauled a pop-up around. It's cheap insurance.
