I just got my 2015 Coachmen Mirada out of storage. I had a trickle charger on the chassis battery, and one on the two 12-volt coach batteries. The trickle charger on the coach batteries never turned Green, which leads me to believe they were never charging. Main power switch was turned off in...
I am awaiting delivery of two AT 100Ah batteries for the 2109s. I want to locate the batteries in the pass thru to keep them from growing legs. The battery dimensions are 13 x 6.82 x 8.48 each. I prefer a tray type holder with an across-the-top bar held in place by "j" hooks to keep them...
Can I get some eyes on this schematic of our install of 2 new 100ah SOK batteries, new PD4060LK converter/charger (replacing a WFCO 8735) and new PI EMS. We have moved the batteries to underneath our jackknife sofa in the rear of the camper where the WFCO is now. Only had one lead acid on the...
Just received our 2 new 12.8v 100ah lithium batteries. So I am new to this. Do we need to discharge them first before we fully charge them?
Do we run them in parallel or series?
We got them to run or residential fridge.
dge in our RV without the generator.
We just returned from a two month warmer weather trip, had shore power at each stop and the only time the batteries were working was when we were driving. Before we left I checked battery water level and all was good, during the trip each battery had a dry cell and would not hold a charge. These...
We have a 2018 Coachmen Leprechaun 311 FS. We are brand-new RV owners.
We bought the RV from General RV in Wixom, Michigan, January 3. It's been sitting here at home in the driveway (north of Ann Arbor) since then. It's been driven short distances two or three times, mostly just to practice...
We are thinking of changing-over to LiFePo4 batteries in our TT. However, we expect to purchase a FR3 30DS in the next 2 years. Therefore, we'd like to ensure that the batteries we buy today for our TT will fit into the FR3 30DS battery compartment.
Each SOK 206Ah battery measures ~11.5" in...
I’m running two 6 volt batteries in series to get 12 volts. My question is do i charge them when they get down to 50 % like a regular 12 volt battery or wait until they are at 0 %
Thanks
The house batteries on our 2016 Isata 3 look to be coming to the end of their lives. The batteries no longer ever get to 100% charge, don't last long enough when we are not plugged in (even with the solar charger), and we want to replace them.
We currently have two 8A31DTM Deka Intimidator...
I have a 28 q b and I would like to convert the single 12 volt battery to two 6 volt golf cart batteries.
I don't really want to have to reinvent the wheel on this
So I'm wondering if people who have already done this would recommend the exact batteries to get.
Thanks for the advice
Bill
There are 4 batteries in the belly, am I to understand that two are coach and two are chassis?
I'm about to replace them and was thinking of going to AGM's. Does the added expense of lithium batteries justify the expense of lithiums?
My DX3 is a 2018 and the batteries have been drained several...
Hi folks,
I’ve learned a lot of things from this forum and other sources, so I appreciate the lurking I’ve been able to do. I’m planning the addition of solar and was hoping that your expertise could validate my assumptions and provide any commentary or feedback you think would be useful...
Batteries taking longer than expected to charge?
Today I finished upgrading the batteries and chargers in my travel trailer. Upon firing up the system the new charger immediately fired up and started charging the batteries. Well, it’s been 3 hours 45 minutes and it is still charging at a high...
Has anyone placed lithium Batteries in the tray under the Galleria chassis as drop in replacements? I have a 2018 with Lead acid batteries. Worried about moisture. Can I use a standard Lithium battery or should I use a Lithium Marine battery? I want to use AOLithium 12v 100ah Batteries and...
Looks like the stock battery box for my G16BH is below and wondering what batteries are currently in that box, and if upgraded, what was able to fit? I'm not going to replace a year old battery yet but like to see what choices work without replacing the box too...
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...
