charging

house battery was dead after sitting for awhile , was trying to charge by plugging motorhome into power and something happened where the inside battery switch doesn't work now and not charging . I know it is probably the main fuse - thought it was located inside the lower panel by passenger door...

Hi, I have a 2018 Roo 233s. My question is about the converter in the rig. Anyone have a link to specs on it? How fast will it charge the batteries? I've noticed it seems VERY slow. I have a BMV-712 battery monitor and 2 85ah lead-acid batteries attached. After using lets say...

So we just got to our campsite after about a 1 hours drive. Noticed my battery monitor for the 2 house batteries was beeping. They were about 40% depleted. The monitor indicates the alternator is not charging. The vehicle battery was fine and is charging. Out campsite is not ready yet so I fired...

Just wondering if I can use one battery charger (pic and link below) to charge both of my 24-group batteries simultaneously. I plan to keep the batteries on the charger over the winter. It also desulfates...

I have a Rockwood Mini Lite 2109s . I have been using this trailer to live in at a work site away from home . The trailer is plugged in most of the time except for week ends when I go home . The original coach battery lasted almost 2 years and then started losing a charge over the weekend . Put...

can anyone tell me what the different letters on the light test panel actually mean?? C, G, F, L there is not where in the manual that actually tells you and could be a couple of different meanings/options. Thanks

So I looked through other topics and could find what I was looking for, so here goes... We store our travel trailer off site. It has plenty of sun access (another subject) and today I remove the battery and bring it home and put it on a little trickle charger. Our new trailer (Rockwood 2909)...

I recently took delivery of a new trailer which included a new group 24 battery rated at a paltry 75 amps. Additionally I own a older (2 y/o) but still working very well, group 27 battery that when new was rated at 105 amps. I have enough room to mount on the trailer tongue beside the...

Finally got to plug my camper into shore power to start to check things out. First thing I noticed is that the converter is very loud. Doesn't sound like a fan noise, more like a transformer noise. BUT when I turn on a 12 V appliance (light) the sound goes away. :confused: The converter is a...

This affects Ford Transit owners, with baby Forrest in back NO Ford Transit chassis, carrying any Forest River, (with Precision Circuits BCC) is charging the Forest River battery en route, not even a little My experience is with two of the 100 that were built in 2017 with a Lithium coach...

I have a 2005 Tsunami 3904QS and when running the microwave and an inductive cooktop I will occasionally blow the AC breaker to the inverter. It then switches to the inverter to take up the load. Why am I blowing this breaker? Any thoughts?

Recently decided to pull the trigger and upgrade my 12v Lead Acid to a LiFePO4 100Ah drop in battery. I am stoked with the performance so far but am wondering if you guys may have some ideas as to why the DC Charging station located near the Murphy bed is not getting any power to it? 2017 2304DS

Hi All, New owner of a used 2015 R-Pod 179 that came with a property I bought. Nice little trailer! My questions are regarding power. The trailer is parked in the mountains, totally off the electric grid. I have two potentially separate goals. 1. Keeping the batteries charged. I have a nice...

While I am camped and connected to shore power, should my engine battery be charging? The dashboard radio in my 2018 Georgetown Class A is the radio and DVD player for the coach. There is a switch to power it on even when the key is not in ignition. But that is apparently draining the engine...

So we have a 2019 FR Vengeance 388V16 with a 50A shore power connection and Onan 5500 onboard genset. I'm chasing a 12V gremlin where most of the accessories only work on shore power or generator and the batteries are not charging and in fact discharging when stored. Under normal conditions I...

What’s the best way to keep car charged while being towed (blue ox brake system)

Before I go ripping into electrical stuff, I want to verify that a 2016 DX3 is supposed to charge the house batteries when running after the starting batteries are charged. I wired my old boat this way with an Automatic Charge Relay. Saw the recent thread on this issue with a 2018 DX3, and...

I installed solar panels on my 2016 Vibe 245BHS last fall and have loved having it because it keeps my battery charged, while in storage. My problem is with the battery charging while towing the trailer. Ever since installing the solar, the battery won't charge while towing. I start the day...

New here and to travel trailers in general. I have ordered a Battle Born 100ah battery for our new 2019 Forest River Cruise Lite 201BHXL TT. No plans for boon-docking (if that is the right term) so one battery for now. The TT has a WF-8955pec power converter/charger. Are these compatible? Has...

Hello! Long time lurker, I thought I would share the upgrades I've done to my Bobcat's electrical system as this info could be useful to someone else. I purchased an All Terrain Bobcat Shell model last year and had it installed on my 2015 Chevy Colorado at the ATC shop in Reno in September. It...

The DW been working with our dealer on setting up our PDI this week, during the conversation she was told the factory converter has an "automatic recharge cycle" when the batteries drop below 10.5 volts and lasts 4 hours this in turns leads to 6 volt batteries being over charged and failing...

I recently fired up my solar controller for the first time in preparation for the first trip with solar panels. With shore power from the house, the best I can get out of the batteries is 12.3 volts after 24 hours on the converter. I disconnected the shore power and plugged in a quality...

As many know , boaters face the same battery charge problems as boondockers. All want short recharge time (impossible) and a return to 100% charged for longest battery life. Here is a concept from someone in the field, https://marinehowto.com/how-fast-can-an-agm-battery-be-charged/

Have a 2010 Georgetown with 50 amp service, just replaced house batteries. Since we do not travel that much, was considering a trickle charger to retain charge in house batteries. Another person said that if I had 115v outlet in my storage facility I could hookup to that. Is this a good way to...

2016 DX3 was left in storage for a couple of weeks not plugged in. Showed up yesterday and batteries are dead. Zantrex control panel said house batteries had 4 volts. Plugged into shore power and left over night. This morning still dead. Panel says zero volts now. What am I missing why didn't...
