Hey guys 2018 35db here sitting on a 2017 Ram 5500 chassis. When I try to start the unit, it clicks and that’s it. If I hit aux 2 and jump from the house batteries, it starts right up. I thought the batteries were toast but when I took it to the parts store, they said the batteries test fine...

If adding a 2nd battery to our TT, should I just connect them in parallel or connect each one to a battery switch that offers a selection of each individual battery. Thus #1 - Both - #2 - OFF
I've read that it is best not to parallel batteries due to any difference between the two, the weaker...
I've been doing a bit of research on solar/battery setups and their use for my 2022 E-Pro 19BH. It has a 190 watt solar panel and I installed two 81 ah flooded batteries to start. As close as I can figure I'm using somewhere around 4 amps/hr during the night to run the camper.
Problem is that...
