battery

Hello All - I have a 2022 21BHE travel trailer. It currently has two 6V lead acid golf cart batteries located the tongue. I would like to remove those batteries and install a 280 AH lipo4 battery from litime. I would like to relocate that lipo4 battery off the tongue and inside the coach (I dry...

I'm still figuring out my new Geo Pro and found that the cable that runs from the main battery switch to the positive terminal of the battery is rather small gauge and concerns me. It doesn't have any spec text on it, but the outside diameter (including insulation) is only 1/4". I realize this...

I'm a new Rockwood Mini Lite 2109s owner. Also new to camping. Can anyone advise on what choice makes most sense for folks who mostly expect to use full or near full hook ups and way less boondocking as it relates to the need for batteries and solar. Would it be the best to purchase an...

Recently purchased a 2020 Forester class C RV with less than 4000 miles on it. Upon my first dry camping experience, I found that my engine would not start after having run down the coach battery. I did not realize the 12 V fridge pulled so much power and will not do that again. But not being...

Testing out our new camper and how long the batteries will last. I get completely different numbers when I look at the multiple monitoring systems within the camper. Currently, I only have one solar panel on top (two 200ma and we have 2 100 mA lead acid batteries that came stock with the unit...

I just removed my lead acid battery for winter storage; currently stored in heated basement (~60F) and plan to keep it there for the winter (4-5 months). Question: what is best course of action to keep it maintained for the winter? Hooking up to battery charger once/month for a few hours OR...

Installed a new lithium battery in the Spring and have been very satisfied. I was wondering how a lithium battery should be managed during the winter. My battery manual says it should be maintained at 50% SOC. Should I remove it from the trailer tongue and store in my garage or just leave it...

Last year I installed 400w solar, 2 100w lithium batteries and a 3000w inverter. Everything worked well during the summer months when the solar got plenty of sun and I supplemented with a couple of hours on the generator in the morning. Over 4 separate weeks we would be up to 100% battery when...

Hi, hopefully someone else has experienced this. (controller=gp-pwm-30-ul, battery=Litime lifepo4 12v 230ah 200a bms, 600w solar, victron smart shunt) If the battery voltage drops below 9 volts it will not power the controller, per gopower manual. Lifeop4 battery bms need activation when it...

i am setting up for solar ...will this battery work? it has 81 ah 140 rc 690 mca recommendations...befor ei get to invested want to make sure i can charge this easily with a 200 watt panel 30 amp....

Hello All. I have made some changes to my new EPro E20FBS Battery and Solar systems. As I dd not find a lot online and it was hard to chase down some wires I figured I would post up my work and findings here so that others may comment and or benefit from my sleuthing. First off This is the...

I’ve read in various forums that it’s better to use a battery trickle charger than to keep the trailer plugged into the grid/house all the time. I’m wondering if the solar port on the driver’s side of my 2024 E19 trailer (see pic) can be used to plug in my trickle charger? I’m guessing not, but...

In the past I have stored my battery in our basement, hooked up to a battery maintainer. Last year I put in a 30 amp outlet next to where I park our camper. The camper is always plugged in there when were home. The battery stays charge as long as the camper is plugged in. Is it OK to leave the...

I purchased a 2025 Forest River Salem Lite RV and I would like to add an additional battery. I have a solar unit on the roof and thinking for boondocking when not using the generator I should add another battery. Present battery is a Interstate one and adding another running parralel with each...

I have an AC-only refrigerator in my 2012 R-Pod 177. Currently, it is powered through a breaker position in my WFCO Ultra III Distribution Center (stock model WF-8955PEC) when I'm connected to shore power. I'd like to have the option to power it from battery via an inverter. What would be the...

Thinking of upgrading to a lithium battery in our 2024 Rockwood Row so we can boom dock more than one night if needed. All solar attachments are there just need to know what battery people recommend.

On my last camper i rarely (2x in 5 years) used the battery. Installed a connector on it so most of the time was disconnected. When I did use it, was for the tongue jack. So on this one i use same battery and connector. Was thinking of adding a switch but based upon above really can’t justify...

It seems the battery disconnect on my Wildwood may only be preventing the batteries from charging from the tow vehicle. I have a solar panel and controller installed using the pre-wired wires from the factory. The solar panel is wired directly to the batteries. The interior lights and DC only...

Hi, Just purchased a 2024 Geo Pro G19FD and very excited to take it out on a few short trips not to far away. One thing I'd like to do is replace the battery with a Lithium battery and mount it inside the pass-through storage. Any tips you have on running the cables inside the pass-through and...

I've got an intermittent but frequent relay/solenoid clicking. (There are some older threads on this topic that are helpful but not sufficient) Had only been happining on shore power or when running, but now is also snapping with absolutely everything off. What is it telling me and what is my...

As our ‘24 DX3 had been sitting for a month, over the weekend I went to my storage site to check on things, start the engine, run the generator, etc. I was surprised to see the lithium battery state of charge was down to 54%, even though I keep plugged in to 110V when not in use. While...

I have a Wolf Pup 15SW. The lead acid battery was under the jack knife sofa. I changed it to 100ah LiFePo4. I wondered if the WF-8955 converter would charge it and it seemed to when trailer hot and ground were connected directly to the battery. But then I put added a 200w solar panel, 30 amp pwm...

Had a first happen, battery blew up. I believe i know why, but want to see what other input you all have. Battery is only 2 years old but this summer since it was hot, I was turning the vent fan on in the afternoon and i would shut it off in the evening. BTW, the camper is not plugged in, I...

Hello all, Looks like the solar panel is not charging the battery. Controller shows 0v on the pannel and no charging activities. Is there a troubleshooting procedure?

On my 2022 DynaQuest XL 3801TS when I'm driving and on the inverter, the Victron monitor usually shows that the State of Charge drops from 100% to a lower percentage. Then when I plug into shore power the State of Charge climbs back to 100% after a few hours. On my recent trip after two hours...
