charging

I have a 2017 sunseeker mbs 2400. I recently put in new house batteries and now I don’t see any evidence of the batteries getting charged when the engine is running. I have to run the generator to charge the house batteries. The steps also stopped working which may be related. Where does the...

Went dry camping last week and would like to hear ideas on how everyone keeps their battery charged up. My 100 watt solar panels did great during the day but at night running the genny it does not seem to do as good. Wake and I am at 12.5 volts. Tried running genny with a 10 amp battery charger...

Anyone know where this "solar prep" charging port is located? It is shown on the BCC wiring diagram, so must be on the roof?

2005 Sunseeker LE Purchased privately, no user info. Is it possible to charge the living area batteries while driving from the engine alternator. I supposedly have a switch located on lower dash next to my left led that is to allow the living area batteries to start the vehicle if the engine...

I have two issues going on at the same time and i am wondering if they may be connected. Problem #1 is what appears to be a short or some kind of intermittent electrical current on the Dodge chassis. The volt gauge goes from 12 to 13 and to 14 volts and back down to 13 and to 12 volts. At the...

Wondering if someone can offer some help. I have an 2018 Isata5 30FW that has decided to quit charging the four coach batteries while I'm driving down the road. The twi alternators in the Dodge 550 are working just fine as the chassis batteries are charging correctly. When I turn on the...

Hello all. i am interested in adding solar to my tt to charge batteries when we don't have connection to electricity. We have a 28 foot tt and would only to need to run a standard rv refrigerator, a couple of LED lights, and occasionally the water pump. We can go 3-4 days on the two batteries...

hey guys I'm in need of the wiring/plug to hook up to my truck battery to plug into the camper. The camper has the 3 prong older plug already on the camper but I'm in need of I think the female part. I have called by local dealer and they said they don't make that anymore and it will bee $400...

I have camped a few times where there was no electricity. Using my cpap runs the battery down in a few days. When I plug the trailer into the generator it takes all day to get the battery back up. I was wondering if I could hook my 25 amp charger up to the battery and charge it much faster...

Forum Newbie here, I currently have a class A and I keep the house batteries charged during storage using a 110 power cable hooked up to my house to a trickle charger to my batteries. Thinking of buying a Forester class c 2441DS. It has solar panels which I have never had. A couple of questions...

All, I tried researching this, but I haven't hit on the right search terms I guess. I would like to upgrade to LiFePO4 with 2 batteries and the converter swap out. My current trailer has a residential fridge with an inverter. My question is, does the charge from the truck go through the...

1. Does the generator charge both the house and chassis batteries? 2. Does the dashboard radio/DVD run off of the chassis or house batteries. My unit did not come with a separate inside stereo system; however, it does have a speaker selector switch.

New owner of a Geo Pro 19fbs with a newbie question. Can anyone tell me if the solar panel is maintaining the batteries with the battery disconnect turned off? Or do the batteries need to be in the on position to receive solar charging?

I am thinking about getting 2 VMAX batteries ( VSG-12 100 ah) - it had built in converter for solar panels- however if I am using my 3 stage converter in my NOBO 19.6 ... I was thinking disconnect and use a 8 stage charger is better... I am trying to contact VMAX and see if I can use both...

Just bought an 03 sunseeker with the 7.3 powerstroke diesel. My question is does it charge the batteries while driving with engine alternator? About to take an 1100 mile road trip to Colorado with 6 kids and want to know if I can add a 2000-3000watt inverter to run outlets!? Thanks.

I picked up a 2015 dynamax 320xl last spring. I haven’t had the chance to use it for a few months. I keep it parked near the house and have it plugged into the house with everything turned off. I go out and start it once a month and also run the generator. I notice the last couple of months I...

Will the coach batteries charge if the master disconnect switch is turned OFF if plugged into shore cord 110v?

After watching quite a few videos and reading several articles I have yet to see this specific question addressed, although I realize there are several thousand people who know the answer. If I mount a permanent solar system, 80-100 watt or so, for the sole purpose of trickle charging my house...

2018 (Transit) Coachmen Freelander 20CB Can someone answer these questions: Will the house batteries charge when driving if the battery disconnect switch is turned off? Does the generator starter run off the house batteries or the engine battery? Thank you.

I recently purchased two Duracell Ultra Platinum AGM Deep Cycle batteries (92 amp each) for my coach and after a night of boon-docking running off DC power (with a 100% charge) they are down to maybe 75-80% come morning. (CPAP must really drain battery.) The problem is that it seems to take 1...

Hello all, Thanks to all that responded helping me decide on a new battery. I ended up with a 12 volt deep cycle from Easter Penn. Deka battery. Love it! Did a Boondock simulation and it was actually difficult to deplete the battery to 50% 12.20 volts. My question is recharging. Our 2017...
