    2024 243TR solar charger not working

    The solar controller is blank. Pretty much after the first few trips this year. Doesn’t light up with any logos, graphics or anything. Interestingly enough the cargo light in that compartment doesn’t work either? Coincidence? Also, Do I have a bad charge controller or am I missing some sort...

    Geo Pro 16BH Charger

    Where in my new 2021 Hero Pro 16BH is the actual battery charger? I see the solar controller. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about the one that charges the battery when I'm plugged in to shore power.

    Battery and/or Charger and/or Transfer Switch Faults

    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...

    Where to locate Victron DC-DC Charger

    Hi all, I recently replaced my 2 dead AGM batteries with 2 100AH Battleborn LiFePO4 batteries in our 2017 3171DS Forest River-Forester motorhome. I have purchased the Victron 30A DC-DC charger and am now wondering where to mount it. I understand it needs to be vertical and have a 4"...

    Turning off battery charger

    Greetings, First post. We just returned from our third trip in our new 2513s. This was our longest trip thus far, eight days. For most of the trip, we had full hookups. This was awesome! It was cold at night. When I got up in the morning, I turned on the electric fireplace...

    When on generator, charger never moves off “float”

    Hi All, My family boondocks/stays in state parks a great deal in the 28ss Xplorer. The battery goes down to 76% or so overnight, and we run the generator during the allowable couple of hours to get the charge back up. The issue is that the generator only charges the battery bank on “float,”...

    Inverter/charger to Converter

    2004 tiffin phantom motor home 50 amp. Bought this rv off my brother and figured I could figure out this electrical problem with the freedom 458 inverter/charger situation. Didn’t end up getting to far. Was blinking on the overload/overtemp LED. Tried diagnosing it with little to no luck so I...

    Hello. I have a 2020 27rr grey wolf and have just recently purchased a LiFepo4 lithium battery. I know later models have a charger that supports lithium and lead batteries but can't find any info on the 2020 model. If anyone knows the answer that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    DC-DC charger

    This may be a hare-brained idea but I am thinking about getting a DC-DC charger to top off the trailer batteries on rainy days. It would not be hooked up permanently and would replace hauling around a small generator. The generator was seldom used. It seems I could hook the charger up with...

    Do I need to a converter if using a battery charger

    Hello, my converter just died and I was wondering if I needed to replace it, or if I could just hook up my NOCO 5AH battery charger and it would do the same thing. I just did this on my last camping trip where I used an extension cord to plug in my battery charger the whole time while my battery...

    LiPo battery charger

    I’m sure this has been asked a millions times but what type of charger do I need to top off LiPo batteries. As I understand my solar and the built in RV converter (shore power) can charge up to around 80% then I need to charge with another charger for LiPo ? Could someone link me to a mid...

    DC-DC charger use in a towable

    I am still not entirely clear on something and wanted to gather input and knowledge from the collective here. What are the reasons someone would use a DC-DC charger in a fifth wheel or travel trailer? I get that folks might run a DC-DC to get "better" LFP charging profiles. This will...
