    Engine braking when not towing

    I was with my brother in law the other day and he has engine braking engaged 100% of the time, even when not towing. He does not engage tow/haul when not towing. He says he thinks it saves wear and tear on the truck brakes. He drives a Ford F-350 diesel. I drive a Chev 3500. I only engage...

    Two Questions: Lithium Battery/Boondocking/Refrigerator

    My wife & I purchased a 2024 GD Imagine XLS-23LDE in May. Because we boondock once in awhile during the year, I had a local Solar RV company swap out the deep cycle for a lithium ion battery (100Ah/12V). They also recommended replacing the stock 40A solar charger controller for an upgrade to a...

    2024 23LDE "Dual LP Tank Monitors"

    Included in the "Peace of Mind Package" it lists the Dual LP Tank Monitors, is there anything special about getting them to work or should they link up to the Compass (or Lippert) software? I'm also verifying that my rig came with them as the dealership didn't know anything about them (from...

    Heated tanks while driving?

    We recently purchased a Reflection 303. My sales guy didn't have an answer for this question. If we are using the trailer in the winter, is there a way to keep the tanks heated while driving long distances? I was told that there are 12v pads on the tanks in addition to furnace ducts. Will...

    I've finished our lithium battery conversion and everything works great! The new batteries are located in the storage bay and I've removed the old lead acid battery from the front of our trailer.

    390rk Electrical Mystery

    We have a 2020 390rk and overall it has been a great rig. However the 110v system is a frustrating mystery. If we plug in an appliance in the kitchen that heats, eg. electric fry pan, the General breaker trips. It seems the refrig, all outlets in the kitchen, the TV, the microwave and even...
