Just picked up a 2024 Rockwood Mini Lite 2205S. It has a new Magic Chief 12v 10.7 cu ft Fridge. Rated current 12A, MCA 15A and MOP 27A with defrost of 120W. If I replace the 2-12v Marine Deep Cycle 88Amph batteries with a single LifPO4 230AmpHr battery with 200watt solar on roof, how long would...
New to me 2016 Forester Sprinter.
If plugged into 30 amp at home, is that all that is needed to keep chassis battery charged for a few months?
Also rig has original Chassis Battery after 7 years. Time to replace I assume?

Does anyone have any troubles with the battery life on there 23 puma 16bhx?
It seems like mine is draining really fast. I think its because of the fridge. Just wondering how long other peoples are lasting?
My new battery is fully charged but nothing turns on in my 2023 Prime Time Tracer 200bhles. I assume it must have a battery disconnect engaged but I can’t locate it. Can anyone please tell me where it is? I have looked everywhere.
We accidentally reversed polarity on our battery. When we put them right now some lights don’t work inside the trailer. We have checked the reverse polarity fuses and they are good. The circuit breaker by the battery does not have a reset on it but still seems to conduct electricity.
Not sure...
Hello all! Hope everyone is safe and happy.
I'm new to all this and am sure I'll be back for advice quite a bit.
So here's my latest conundrum. I want to add a second battery and an inverter to my 22rr. Question is can I disconnect the cable from the power supply, add a splitter, run one side...
So I'm installing a battery disconnect switch near the battery and I see differing answers.
Can I install it on positive as seen on a youtube video? Or as some say, should I install it on the negative?
Thanks!
Hello. A call for help. 2020 Isata 3. Our battery is not charging in any way (solar, generator or shore power). It is a Poweroad PLRC-100 Lithium, less than two years old. Is there a fuse or relay that might have blown? Rather urgent as we are going off grid.

Hello all,
Went to check on 2021 rockwood and found my 2. 12volt batteries dead, measured voltage at 2.10 volts across the 2 batteries!!! Not good, these are original batteries, when I went inside trailer I thought, because I had full California sun, I could at least turn on a LED light, but, no...
I have a 2023 Sunseeker Classic 3010 on a E-450 chassis
I have a question regarding battery charging -- both chassis and house batteries and the generator.
I know the chassis battery is charged by the engine alternator.
1. Does the alternator charge the house battery while driving/ engine...
Hello all. New to the forum, glad to be here. I just got a used former rental model 2019 Coachmen Leprechaun 230CB on a 2018 Ford E-350 chassis about two months ago. I've been trucking around remote working and have covered about 3,000 miles all over so far having a blast. As usually predicted I...
I recently purchased a 2XPower AGM battery. I own a Charge It 4520 battery charger. The Owner's Manual states under the heading BATTERY CHARGER FEATURES "The final stage in the charging routine is a maintenance mode that allows the charger to be connected indefinitely to a battery and maintain a...

Just traded in our 2018 Rockwood Ultralight 2703WS for a 2023 Rockwood Mini Lite 2205S. This will be our first exposure to solar power.
When I put the trailer into storage, it appeared the 2 ea 200W solar panels on the roof were continuing to charge our house batteries (2 ea 12V deep cycle...
My travel trailer currently has a LA battery located upfront & outside. I would like to install a replacement LI battery inside and near the converter / charger.
The current electrical setup has a short 8 AWG black wire connecting the negative terminal of the battery to the frame near the...
I know there are a gozillion places to buy battery cables.....but does anyone have a recommendation for a particular store and/or website where various gauge, length, and terminals can be purchased?
Any experience with BatteryCablesUSA ?
I messed up the first time raising the top on my pop-up and forgot to unlatch the top before attempting to raise it. I know, I know....stupid mistake. The winch cut off almost immediately. Since this incident, the winch will work prefectly off the battery power, but not will not work without the...
I have a 2020 rPod 176 travel trailer.
Attached is a picture of battery-related wiring & auto-resetting circuit breakers at the front of the trailer, near the battery.
The larger 8 AWG wire originates at the positive terminal of the battery, continues thru a 30 AMP auto-resetting circuit...
Hi
Is there a normal range for a parasitic battery current? My battery was being drained overnight while in storage. I have since taken to disconnecting it completely when I store it.

I have an Apex Nano 194bhs. I could always leave a battery connected for weeks or months and the solar panel would top it off as needed so that the battery was always full. This summer if I put a full battery on it is dead in 1/2 a day. Something must be draining is fast, faster then the solar...
I accidentally ran a battery discharge test last night when I forgot to plug it back in after moving it around in the garage. 🙃
