Hello all,
We just got our Cardinal (3850) stored in a storage lot. NO Electric: No Generator
No Solar No truck.
We also have a Winnebago View which has an on- board
generator. Can we use that to get our lights on and charge the batteries some
by plugging into the exterior outlet while the...
2022 Rockwood Geo Pro 19 FBS. Want to switch to 2, Li batteries versus my 2 Diehard P/N 24DC-1 batteries with 550 CCAs, 685 Marine cranking amps at 32 degrees and 140ah reserve. Suggestions? My control panel is set up for up to 2 Lithium batteries.
Hi All!
2019 SS-1604
Did a search in various places online but unable to find any clear direction/guidance.
The batteries that this new-to-us truck camper came with (2 x 6v lead acid) crapped out on our first trip.
Due to the apparent shortage of good sealed 6v batteries, has anyone got any...
Has anyone tried these batteries from bass pro shops to power their RV?
I tried looking for reviews on these batteries outside the forum but don't see much on them.
I’m new to this so I’m not sure if there is something that I am overlooking.
The battery switch is turned to the on position. The wave inverter is on to the preinstalled solar panels. When we plug the 7point into the truck, everything works perfectly. After disconnecting from the truck, the...
FWC Lithium Manifesto
Ok, lately especially, my inbox has exploded with questions about DIY installation of lithium batteries into Four Wheel Campers. We’re talking 5 new inquiries a day. There is a lot of info about it on here already, but I thought maybe it would be helpful if I put it all...
Hi all!
I have a Wolfpup 16BHS. Both of my batteries are completely dead. The only way I can power my rig is when I plug the seven way into my vehicle and turn my vehicle on. Obviously this isn’t going to work because I can’t leave my vehicle running all night. I’m not sure why the solar isn’t...
I am considering a sunseeker ts2370 that comes with one battery, is there room for two batteries in the compartment? I have not been able to see one in person.
My wife and I have our new 2021 Dynamax 30FW Xplorer as of late August 2021 (4.5 months ago). Last time I ran it was about 1 1/2 weeks ago to have the propane tank topped off. I went out to check on the vehicle today and nothing in the chassis was functioning electrically. Not even the door...
I wanted to remove the batteries from our FBS19 with the factory solar package so that I could store them in my garage and maintain them over the winter.
I asked our dealer and was told that I had to cover the solar panel and remove some wires from the back of the solar controller to disable...
Title says it all. It's time for new battery and I am thinking of taking the plunge into lithium - despite the cost.
This one has caught my eye - - I like the idea of it having built-in blue tooth so that I could monitor it with my phone...
Our DX3 left the factory two weeks ago today. Our dealer has not received it and is now closed until the 3rd of Jan. I am wondering if the batteries stay charged by the solar, or do they plug it in at the transport yard ?
Hello Road Warriors!
Any possibility that you that are more experienced than I, have suggestions for a solar battery charger that will keep my two 12V “house batteries” topped off”, when not in use. Preferably one that I can clip on to the batteries under the stairs and remove when we hit the...
Trying to help a friend who recently bought a beautiful 2011 Lexington 255DS.
As standard equipment goes……Shouldn’t there be 2 house batteries in this rig?
His Lexington works 100%, but he’s realizing he doesn’t have much dry camping “staying power”, which doesn’t surprise me when he reports...
Love this site! Purchased a 2019 Georgetown 36BH5 with 7100 miles on it and drove it home from Indy to San Diego over Thanksgiving week. Love it! However… the coach batteries drain when by themselves overnight to the point the steps will not operate until I either start the engine or run the...
Hi... I am wondering whether I can use my solar panels to keep my house batteries charged while the coach is in storage without any external power available. Currently, I open the 12VDC disconnect relay when storing it. I know that this prevents parasitic loads from draining the batteries...
I am considering lithium batteries and have done some searching on the forum but have a few questions.
Converter is WFCO WF-8735P (https://wfcoelectronics.com/product/wf-8735-35-amp/) Nominal voltage output modes are a 13.2 VDC range “float” mode, 13.6 VDC range “absorption” charge mode, and...

I just purchased 2 Renogy 100ah lithium batteries for our 2021 Grey Wolf 26dbh.
My question is are they just plug and play?
Is the converter/charger that’s installed in the unit from the factory compatible with them ?
My converter under the fridge has a sticker on it that says “safe for...
Howdy Gang -
So I am new to the world of the big 100wh 12 Lithium batteries, but not new to Lithium in general.
Has anyone done a comparison of the "Name brand" / full price Lithium (like BattleBorn) vs the no-name / discount brands? Light googling only shows vague comparisons of name brand...
I'm just beginning to research, and have not even dug out my documents yet. I will find them this week when we go camping. Much easier when everything is deployed...
Has anyone done this yet? I'm wondering if the converter /inverter /charge controller has settings that I can change so that it...
I just removed the parallel batteries from our TT and brought them into my workshop for the winter. I want to use a trickle charger for the next 5-6 months. Can I leave the parallel cables connected between them, and just connect the charger to one battery? It seems like this should be fine...
Just wanted to know the proper battery maintenance for the dual battery set up in my nobo 10.6 trailer. With the main power switch off is it advised to use a battery tender for the cold winter month when trailer is in storage to maintain battery life? If so what is the proper way to hook up the...
Heritage Glen 5th wheel battery change
Hello,
I’ve got a 369bl 5th wheel. I currently have a group 27 and a group 24 battery installed (for whatever reason they don’t match), one on each side of the front compartment. I’ve got two 6 volt batteries from my previous TT that I’d like to install...
