    Power Inverter in battery Bank

    I am going to install a 2000W Renogy inverter. I would love to install it in my front bin of my fifth wheel, where my batteries are. That way everything is tidy, and close together. The instructions on the inverter say not to install it in an area with the battery. My batteries are both in...

    Wheel for Power tongue Jack

    I am thinking of getting an electric tongue jack (maybe a Husky HB4500) for my Rockwood 2022 2318ESP PUP. (It's hell getting old.) If I do so, can I replace the jack plate with a single or dual WHEEL? So I can roll this around in my driveway. Do the power jacks hold up to the lateral stress of...

    Has anyone installed, or know where to get documentation on installing a WFC Model WF-5110RS power invertor and a Go Power 30 amp solar converter in a Rockwood Freedom popup, specifically a 2318G? I've seen discussions for regular trailers but having found anything specific for a pop up.

    Georgetown power cord?

    I was thinking of cutting my power chord to about 2ft long inside my power compartment and putting a male end on. Then putting a female end on the other end of the long chord that's left. I think it would be much easier to coil up the chord or even install a reel in the compartment. It's a PITA...

    Power Converter Question

    Does the battery charging feature on the power converters in these FR travel trailers automatically switch over to a float/maintain mode when the battery is fully charged (like a "smart charger")? I would have to assume they do, but figured I'd ask to confirm. Don't want to overcharge and cook...

    Flagstaff Epro 19bh GFCI Trips easily when plugged into Shore Power. WFCO 5110rs

    I'm just submitting this thread in case anyone else has this problem. I couldn't put much of a load on my AC outlets without the GFCI tripping (usually a electric tea kettle at about 750 watts). This led me to believe that they weren't hooked up to the pass through system coming from shore...

I have no AC or DC power inside the coach. I have checked circuit breakers. Usually when you plug into shore power it clicks. Could it be...

We leave the coach plugged into the power pedestal to keep the fridge going and the batteries topped off. There...
