Grand Design Transcend One 151 RB Camper

Looking at this exact same trailer. How is it working out for you? Good build quality and whatnot?

Build quality is easily a notch, maybe 2 above everything else at the price point. Sit ina few, it will be obvious fast.

Only issue has been the mattress, it's really a wonderful piece of kit, super happy with it.

Pull the trigger these are very nice and good quality. It was literally the only model out there that was lighter and good price.

The mattress and the stupid people installed the faucet wrong but other than that we had so much fine. We got it for 14k and then literally the day after they raised their prices to 19k bc they sold like 5 that same day. Only camper we could find with bunk beds (two small kids) weighed under 5k lbs and in our price range. We installed a tv and bought a crap ton of stuff and camped on way home lol. But we had to figure everything out on our own cuz the dealership said it’s so new being first year they made that small of a model they had no idea how a lot of stuff worked.

Opened this up for the year and stayed in it the past 4 days figuring out what we need/want to be ready for this year.

One fun thing I learned is if you have a solar generator/battery bank, you can plug any other battery into the solar input port and it charges the Solar Generator.

So this is my Ecoflow Delta Pro 1000w, with a 24v 100ah battery hooked to the solar input via XT60. Ran the entire camper for four days with no charging from any external source needed.

It's pretty straightforward.

If you have the stuff.

If you don't, I wouldn't bother buying it for this, just put solar on. My 400w of panels will keep my 100ah battery charged indefinitely.

But if you do, plug the camper into your solar generator. If you have any other battery at all, you can plug it right into the solar panel port of your solar generator to extend it's capacity.

I paid to have solar set up but they gave me the least system possible and didn’t change my battery

Will 100ah battery do as long as it’s lithium?

You don't have to change the battery, you just have to have enough panels to keep it topped up.

Since everything in it is 12v except the AC and microwave, which I removed from mine anyway, it doesn't take a lot of power to run.

Any idea what we can use to run microwave bc we used it a lot for our kids last year

Other than RV park with hookups, you'll need a generator to run the microwave. 3,000w.

Yeah, AC, Microwaves, you're listening to a gennie hammer away or in the KOA.
