I am looking to change my batteries on my Isata3 to Battle Born 100Ah 12V LiFePO4 Deep Cycle Batteries. I was thinking I just have to swap them out and then someone said they heard that you have to make other modifications. Specifically they said I may need to upgrade my charger/converter...
I have a 2022 Flagstaff MicroLite 21FBRS. It came with 190 Watt rooftop solar panels. My question is - Do I need to do anything/add something to make them work? Or will they charge my batteries automatically? Also, there is an outside port to add portable solar panels. Same question - is there...
I have a 2022 Forest River Sunseeker 2860DS and dealer told me that I have to use a half inch socket wrench to disconnect the battery cables in order check my water levels. Apparently when the cables were installed they covered the battery plates for checking water levels. Dealer said there was...

Just Got it home and have changed nothing. Parked in a heated garage with shore power plugged in. Batteries are not charging. 2 Lithium batteries (300 aH each) 3000W inverter. Batteries only charge when RV is running. I have run through multiple...
We are less than a week into our 2023 Isata 5 30FW Explorer. Loving the learning curve on all the systems but stumped on this problem.
The house batteries are not charging on shore power. They charge from the alternators but the state of charge steadily declines as we sit plugged in. The...
Sorry if I've missed earlier discussion of this (I have a helluva time finding specific things like this on WTW).
My 2016 Fleet came with two Exide Edge AGM 24 DP batteries. As the date shows, they've lasted six plus years, and they served my purposes well, but they are on their last legs.
As...
Pretty new to this forum and hoping someone can help me answer this question. I just purchased a 2018 Forest River Vibe 288RLS. It came "ZAMP Solar Ready" and has a Xantrex Freedom X 1200 Inverter mounted to the inside wall of the cargo bay.
The question I have is "What runs off the Inverter...
I have a 2017 Forester 3051s on shore power with no house batteries in it during the winter. Is it OK to connect the 12 volt converter cable to the 12 volt out cable that our in the battery box to run my 12 volt system?

Hi All, have had LIFPo4 batteries in my 2892RB for a couple years now and they are great but I have not towed the RV since installing the batteries and am wondering what precautions i should be taking?
There seems to be a lot of confusing info out there with people talking about damaging their...
Did your coaches come with the GoPower remote? Ours has the remote for the solar, but not the remote for the I/C, though ours did come with the manual for the I/C remote. If the coaches do not come with the remote, how are we supposed to know what settings the I/C is set to? To our knowledge...
had refrigerator draining batteries and shore power not charging batteries. RV dealer replaced my WFCO 8900 with a WFCO 9855. Puts out 55 amps, auto detects lead acid, age, lithium and smart charger.
Tech also found something near the junction box that did not have a ground wire. Whatever it...
There have been several posts about the "Budget Priced"/Cheap Lithium (LiFePo4) batteries that have become available over the last couple of years.
I think it would be helpful to everyone who might be considering purchasing these these batteriess for those who have installed these batteries...
My coach batteries are not charging while driving. I tried researching everything I could but could not find an answer.
I have a 2016 coachman orion B+ on a Dodge pro-master chassie.
Here is what I did so far. While plugged into shore power I disconnected the positive lead to the coach...
Environment:
2017 Cedar Creek Silverback, 38IK, with WFCO WF-9855 charger, 2 new 6v FLA Batteries, on shore power.
Problem:
The charger is working putting out over 13v however the batteries aren’t being charged. Putting on a portable solar panel brings the batteries up to 12.51 in a few hours...
Hey all... next question for my new '23 233s... regarding Battery Winterizing
I have the double solar panels on the roof and a single battery(non-lithium) - both stock from the factory/dealer.
I will be storing the ROO offsite, but outside & uncovered

There is a running discussion on the Rockwood trailer subforum about problems with the WFCO WF-8955-AD-MBA "smart" charger. It is supposed to recognize the type of battery in your unit (lead-acid, AGM, Li-Ion) and set up the charging routine for it. Unfortunately, the charger is dumb. Mine...
We own a 2018 CC Hathaway 34 RE.
The batteries, 4 Interstate gc2’s are getting old. Double the amps is what I am after.
Then too, the DW has discovered Harvest Host and boondocking in general.
Has anyone any knowledge of the maximum lithium batteries that fit in the battery storage bin.
I...
Where do you find what type of batteries are in your coach? Our batteries need to be changed but we can't find the size and amps of the chassis batteries. Our rig is a 2020 27.7 Vegas and we can't find this info anywhere. We've looked online and in the "manual", even tried to call Thor but the...
