My 21 Force has Coleman ACs with electric aux heat. They are so noisy I can't even talk on the phone when running. I've been in any number of garages, work sheds and small cottages with minisplit heat pumps that you can barely hear. I just had a Bosch inverter (variable speed) heat pump...
I recently replaced my 2 aging 69lb AGM batteries with Lithium batteries and a new inverter. Continuing decline in the cost of lithium batteries made the decision to switch easy and created new power and weight opportunities. I choose the new group 24 100 ah Litime blue tooth batteries (4) and A...
My inverter breaker keeps going off and my lights have been dying but everything else was working now it’s shutting off and my Fridge is melting everything in it not Staying cool and my outlets have stopped working any ideas on how I can stop this would be greatly appreciated. Just bought it...
I just bought a 2024 Forest River Wildwood X-lite and it came with pre-wiring for an inverter. I've looked everywhere and cannot find info on the installation steps. Here are the pictures of the wiring and the inverter I plan to install.
Hello all just a quick question when an inverter is installed how will the fridge operate? will it use propane or will turn to AC when not connected to shore power?
I own a 2017 Sierra HT3350bh fifth-wheel. I have seen other discussions in these forums about inverters. Since I don't know and think it would be nice to have a general idea of this. How would I know if I have an inverter? Is it hid like an Easter egg somewhere onboard? If I do not have one...
I'm trying to install the Renogy 500A battery monitor. Everything works with out the shunt. I connected the negative battery terminal to B- side of the shunt and the P- side of the shunt to the frame. When I turn on the inverter the inverter trips out. Any ideas?
I finished rooftop solar panel installation on my HW277 today and starting on 700w Renogy inverter near the power center:
- Distance from batteries looks to be 6 ft for which 6 AWG with 3% loss is at the edge of capacity. May run 4 AWG anyway.
- Are there any special requirements for how...
Basically as title states. I've hosed myself a bit by picking a Surveyor (no inverter, but inverter prep) over a NoBo (2,000 watt pure sine wave inverter, model WF-5220).
To avoid getting lost in the weeds with this thread:
I understand the limitations of using the inverter prep - only...
2020 Sabre 36BHQ
Recently purchased and the batteries were very low. One hooked into trailer system being charged by converter. The other hooked to the inverter but no available solar. Going to replace both batteries and thinking of parallel connection into trailer charged by converter and if...
Hi, we bought our unit last year. When looking at the brochure, there is no inverter listed in the options, but looking at the wiring diagram (received from manufacturer), we see an inverter on it.
So, I've read through the forum and noticed that sometimes, and on some models, the inverter is...
Greetings, we have a forester 2861. I have purchased a 1500 watt inverter. I’m looking for suggestions on the installation. We will only be using it when driving. It will be charging my wife’s laptop, phones, etc. no heavy loads. We are not going to be using this to go solar or to hardwire at...
When I first purchased my 5th wheel I was told to turn in my inverter to run my refrigerator while towing. Once I hooked up to shore I should turn off the inverter and it will run the fridge from the shore line and it has done just that for two years. Recently the fridge stopped working when the...
2021 Shamrock Hybrid
Camper came with onboard solar panel on the roof and an internal Go Power control panel inside.
Everything has been flawless the last couple years until this time. No power to the panel, battery was dead but when plugged into the site power everything works so I’m...
We have a 2024 Redhawk SE 27NF. It came with 200 watt solar panel and the two house battery option. I decided to add amp hours. I got five 135 ah lithium batteries. And a 3000 watt inverter.
The inverter called for “0 awg” at less than 10 feet. And “2/0 awg” ten feet and beyond. All I could get...
We have an 2019 Isata 3. Batteries are dead so we are upgrading the electrical system to 200 ah of lithium, as well as the converter upgrade and the li bim. I am also upgrading to a 2000 watt inverter. Any sneaky problems like wire sizing and fusing that i should be aware of? Is it possible to...
Hello, I recently picked up a new camper with a nice outdoor kitchen. The catch is, we boondock in one spot for most of the summer. I'm thinking about putting a 12v to 120v inverter in just to run the fridge and ice maker in the outdoor kitchen.
I know that the ice maker peaks at 1.8A and I'm...
having trouble with solar inverter shutting off and having to b reset, with camper plugged in or no a/c power connected. Anyone else having issues with?
I purchased a 2019 Rockwood Mini Lite 2506s camper trailer a couple years ago. Now I am adding solar and an inverter for boondocking. The solar was pretty straight forward installation. Now it's time for the inverter. I got an installation document from Forest River titled Inverter Installation...
I'll be mounting a 100W panel, length 42", on the fiberglass roof of my HW277. The ends of the angle (renogy tilt mount kit) will be slightly off the roof. Does it seem reasonable to layer VGHB or eternabond tape to fill the gap? If not, then what?
Other question is a Renogy 700W inverter I...
I recently installed an inverter directly connected to my batteries. It is NOT an inverter charger and has no direct wiring connection back to my rv distribution panel. I plugged my RVs plug into a 15 amp dogbone and then the dogbone into the inverter's 15 amp outlet, turned on inverter and...
Getting ready for 1st trip with our new RDOK and have some questions about Inverter and residential fridge. Dealer sent me along with single battery and 1 200w solar panel saying it was plenty of power for pre-trip cooling so we could load fridge a couple hours before trips… Once on site, we...
