batteries

We are upgrading to four 100A Battle Born Batteries in our 2017 3050S Sunseeker Class C. It has two batteries in the step, has anyone upgraded to four batteries? If so where did you put them? We were thinking of putting the four batteries, multiplus inverter, dc/dc, smart solar MPPT & lynx...

Was doing some technical reading today on a few of the latest offerings on the market for LiFePo4 batteries and stumbled on an interesting fact that one should consider carefully when deciding on one large battery or two smaller equaling the same capacity. Specifically a 200 ah LifePo4 battery...

I just received my 2021 Georgetown GT5 34H5, 5 months after ordering. To my dismay, the outside outlet for the outside 39" TV, main bathroom outlet and master bedroom bathroom outlet have no power when using the 1500 watt inverter. They are ok using the generator. All the other outlets work...

Just wondering when someone can order an XL and it will show up with Lithium Batteries? Also, any timeframe for increased Solar for said platform? Thank you,

I have 4, 6 volt batteries in my coach and I'm thinking about changing to 2, 12 volt AGM 100ah batteries. We don't boon-dock and I always have the coach plugged in when in storage. If I use two 12 volt parallel wired I would be getting 200ah. Anyone else do this or have any thoughts? Thank...

My wife and I are just beginning full-time living in a Cardinal 3825fl. We had issues setting it up because the batteries were weak and could barely run the hydraulic auto-leveling landing gear. Today I removed the batteries and the caps and saw they are mostly dry. Whoever purchased them never...

I need to replace my house batteries and was wondering which batteries are the best to use. Please give me your opinions, this is the first RV I have ever owned. Thank you.

Just pick them up 2 days ago and hooked them up. They are refurbished but the shop I bought them from has a 1 year guarantee. Problem is they seem to be holding almost no charge. I hooked my truck up and I am getting a 'connector fault' error from my truck. I had a look at the 7 pin connector...

On my old travel trailer i pulled the battery and put it on a trickle charger when i wasn't traveling for extended periods of time. The one Interstate battery was still going strong after 11 years, when i gave the camper to my son earlier this month. My question: I have a new Palomino HS 750...

Second season with our Rockwood 2514G popup, model year 2015. During a trip last weekend the batteries ran low (no shore power), so when I got home I tried hooking up a 6 amp automotive-type battery charger to one of my two linked batteries. After many hours the charger indicated still charging...

Hey everyone, can I recharge my 6V batteries with our 120W solar panel at a powered campsite while being plugged into at the campsite? We are driving about 6 hours -- don't have a generator but will be plugging in at a powered campsite -- can I recharge my 6V batteries at the same time with my...

Hello Folks, I have been searching online and in the forum for a ride report for a set of AGM batteries for our Thor Axis 25.6 (Group 24). Lots and lots of posts about Lithium batteries, but with the infrequency we use our motorhome, the $1,400-$2,200 for a set of two is not in the budget. Our...

I looked on here and found some advice but this is what I did on our camping trip this last weekend. Right off the bat, I left the generator at home (1st stupid thing) then as the weekend went on we were using the heater (big user of power) and then the water pump started acting funny (yup not...

We just bought a 2021 Sandpiper and are living out of it while we remodel. Our batteries won’t charge when connected to shore power. I just replaced the batteries but still won’t charge. Have replaced fuses in converter and still no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have a 2020 rock wood ultralight 2608bs. I came into a 200 watt goal zero briefcase panel. Has anyone used this to just charge the battery. It has a different plug that doesn’t fit what is on the camper already. Do I need an adapter cable only? Or a charging controller with a cable to the 12...

We have a 2016 CC 33IK 5W. We took the batteries out for the winter. After charging them, we put them in the 5W and turned the battery switch back to on. There is no electricity in the 5W, but the electric jacks work. We plugged the 5W into the truck, but nothing. We checked the fuse box and...

I own a 2014 390rb. I have quick questions about the chassis/engine batteries. Is a digital voltmeter the best way to check the batteries to see if they are good or need to be replaced? Do I have to disconnect the cables from the posts in order to do this? Also, do the chassis/engine...

Hi all, I need to replace the house batteries on my 2015 Solera. Does anyone have any recommendations for batteries that have worked well for you and have good amp hour rating?

Good morning, had a quick question? I store my RV next to my house hooked up to 115v ie extension chord from house. I recently added a second battery so I would have longer use while boondocking and not having to run my generator. Is it good to leave them hooked up? Or should I disconnect them...

Anyone using the Battleborn Lithium batteries on your geo pro. I'm curious how they have performed and if you needed to change any equipment? I have the Go power 190W solar on board with the 30 amp Go power monitor but was wondering about the Charge/Controller. Regards Mark

I was driving home the other day from a camping trip and the monitors showed the batteries were not being charged by the engine/alternator. Got home, a bit later went out to put the RV on the leveling jacks and the engine/alternator started charging again. (This is based on inverter panel...

I've tried to search this and most of the conversations are about mixing types of batteries, as in wet cell, and lithium etc. I have two parts to this question. The first is how compatible is one brand, such as Battleborn, used in parallel with say a Lion Energy? Will they work together the same...

Hello! I have been storing my trailer with the batteries disconnected to prevent excess discharge. It’s a bit inconvenient and I will likely install a disconnect in the future but have not done so yet. Is it reasonable to just leave them disconnected when I’m camping with shore power...

question about the battery shut off switch. If I turn the battery shut off switch off does the battery cont on the trickle charge when the trailer is plugged in to ac. Also the frig has an auto switch ac/propane. if this is on ac/propane and we are not hooked to ac does it only use propane?

I have a 2021 sandstorm 242 gslc toy hauler and was wondering can you swap out the lead acid with lithium and not have to change the inverter charger ? I’m adding 2 more 200 watt solar panels and a 4000watt inverter in place of the 1500 watt one
