charging

I came back to camp tonight to find my FR3 without house power. I’m plugged into 50 amp shore power but the house batteries are dead. Started the chassis and power came back on but batteries are not charging from shore power. Any suggestions?

Just bought two 6 volt golf cart batteries to replace the single 12v OEM battery that came with our TT. I am planning on connecting them in series and then charging with a "regular" 12 volt 2/10 amp car battery charger. But before I "charge off" any comments on how best to charge them? Also what...

So I recently discovered what this is for after a bunch of searching. The dealer had no idea what it was for. BUT… knowing now that this is a unique charging dock for a specific Bluetooth speaker, was this speaker to be included with the RV? Or is this just an added “feature” that I’m...

Hi. My inverter is putting out 13.5 volts but its not reaching my batteries. So both batteries are depleted. Is there is breaker or fuse to check and where? Is a FR3 DS25. Thanks

My LT18 #5—15amp circuit breaker has 2 leads to it. One is frig and the other is charging. It keeps tripping and I isolated it to the charging side. Frig is fine. The black wire to this breaker “charging” runs out of the power converter into a harness then into a wall cavity between my bath and...

Well, today I finally looked at my Victron app and saw a 4 amp draw on the battery while parked. That was odd since nothing was on in the trailer except the gas detector thingy. So I unplugged the 7 pin connector and voila! the draw went away. I have LFP batteries in the trailer and they read...

I've been doing some troubleshooting on my existing factory 1000W WFCO inverter as it won't run the factory Hisense refer, which works fine on shore power. That troubleshooting was detailed in a different thread, but I'm about 95% sure it's toast and I will likely replace it along with my...

I have a Class C 3170. Should the house battery charge of the alternator while the vehicle is driving?

I just replaced my four house batteries with like models on my 2015 GT364TS. The old original units where dead as could be. I have been on shore power (50amp) for about a week until this morning I disconnected shore power to take the coach in for an oil change. I powered the inverted on to...

6 days into a 6 week trip and my solar system won't charge consistently. On a recent 12 day trip, the refrigerator and freezer held temperature the entire trip. This trip we left on Tuesday and lost 12v power on Saturday night. When I looked up at the voltmeter, it was at 10.5 and slowly dropped...

Hello all 2021 FR Sunseeker LE (Ford E450) 2 - 125AH AGM, 12v batteries wired in parallel BMV-712 wired in BIM 160 48vdc ignition protection relay From reading the BIM manual, the BIM should allow charging of both coach and chassis batteries only when either is true, on shore power or when...

So I have a new trailer which has 800W of solar, 400 on the roof and 2-200W solar suitcases I can plug into the back. I did buy a Firman 1600W generator as backup as my rig does not use any propane. The gen is giving me some trouble it fires up and runs but then goes down to idle even after I...

My Rockwood Signature Ultralite has a USB charging station in the bedroom. Very simply, it doesn't work. Any ideas?

In case this has been covered before please let me know where to find it, as a search did not do the trick. We just spend 7 nights at the North Rim GC campground with no electrical hookup. We have 800W of solar and 400AH of lithium batteries and a Victron battery monitor. The camp side was just...

I have a 2015 FR forester MBS, purchased new. It has a Precision Circuits Battery control center. When I am driving down the road my low battery alarm comes on and I have to turn the generator on. I have been doing this a long time. Not sure if it ever worked. Top terminal on the solenoid is for...

Hey All, I'm going to make some upgrades to the PUP (PD converter, BVM 712, cleaning up wires, new buss bars etc) and while I'm in there I figure its a good time to add a couple 12 volt charge ports. There are 103 thousand options on amazon, some with DVM, USB, cig lighter ports, and many many...

1. Hey guys does ur rig charge the house batteries while plugged into shore power? If not Wht are you using to keep a charge on house batteries? 2. Does your 7 pin harness charge house batteries while traveling?

I have a Brookstone 344FL and this came installed already on it. I had to leave the camper unplugged from shore power for a couple weeks and returned to find the battery dead.. but when I’m plugged in it shows working, shows the battery charged .. not sure why it wasn’t charging it. Any suggestions?

Need help on this one. I have covered storage and elect. plug in unit. It comes on for 2 hours a day. Now I leave the inside household frig open. It is 4 door and so tight against island I have to use rag in door to keep it cracked open. The question is , battery switch on, fifth wheel left...

When unit stored, battery switch in off, but plugged in to wall. Does battery charge in this situation or does the battery switch have to be in on position .

I am going to ask a question I think I know the answer to. I have 2, 12 volt batterys if I turn my inverter off are the batterys still getting charged while plugged into shore power? the reason I ask is generally when we get back from camping I always turn my inverter off. Thanks for the info...

I've confirmed the solar panels only charge the house batteries I'd like to charge the chassis battery as well. It seems (if there is a common ground) that all one would need to do is run a wire from the positive of the house batteries to the positive of the chassis battery. Use say a 10 A...

I replaced the 2 12v batteries on my fifth wheel with 2 6v. I have an onboard 5500 Onan generator. It will have to run for quite sometime to just get to 2/3 (three red lights) it will then run down rapidly to one light and will not have enough power to turn the generator over. I then have to...

I am seeing 14.5 - 14.8 volts as my charging rate when towing. I now see that same rate of charge without the trailer. Anyone else experience high charging rates on their vehicle?. Is this normal ??

Just got a 2021 Coleman Lantern 300TQ. Battery charges when towed. Battery doesn't charge on shore power or when generator attached. Voltage on battery disconnected 12.5v, on shore power 22.4v, attached to truck running 13.1v. Looked everywhere I can think of for disconnect switch with no luck...
