We have a 2018 21 with solar and dual batteries. It's unplugged and the battery bypass switch is on. When I look at the info panel it shows anywhere from .0 to .3 amps being drawn at various times.. what would be using that power ? I expected it to always read 0.0. we have an inverter and...
I have a 2017 MBS 2401WS Forester motorhome on a Sprinter chassis. This spring when I took it out of storage all the batteries were dead. I had to get a tow truck to jump start it after trying to jump charge it with my car and a diesel pick up. I did manage to get the genny started to charge...
We winterized our camper and put it up for the Winter. I usually take the batteries out and put them in the garage on a trickle charger. Some people I know just leave them in the camper until Spring. I am curious what other people do
I store my 3170DS outside but hooked up to power and under a carport for winter. I winterize, and sometimes leave my furnace on during very cold spells.
I am thinking of a space heater. What type of space heater do others use?
Hi Folks,
I have 4 x 6V AGM batteries in my FR Sabre, and a 600W solar system mounted on top of the trailer. I have left the solar system charge controller running, but disconnected all of the trailer power from the battery system.
I'm writing today to see what other people recommend wrt...
Storage Idea for WDH Bars...
Working with Schedule 40 PVC for a kayak rack gave me the idea to use that same PVC as storage for my WDH bars. I love that they are out of the elements and easy to get to when I need them. I put caps on both ends to make access easy on each side, they slide out...
The latest improvement to my 2020 Geo Pro 19QB is the addition of a light to the bay area of my slide-out which is switched on when I open the bay door. I added LED tape inside the bay and use a refrigerator door switch. The power for the light was taken from the 12v line at the back of the...
Hello,
I have been a lurker in the forums since buying my 2020 GeoPro and it may have been addressed already and if so sorry for the new thread. Last winter I took the batteries out and kept them in the garage on battery tender and all was well.
But I was just wondering since I have solar and it...
We are the road and I found that the latch on the front right storage door has broken. That is the plastic piece that catches the strike plate snapped off. Since it was the front door I was able to keep it closed by accessing the strike plate and the latch hole from the water bay. I used...
My wife would like to hear any tips on wine glass storage. We've tried a towel and a basket shoved in a cabinet, anything better? Thanks
Four months till we head out to fulltime and see this great nation.
Like many others, I have had a recurring front storage compartment leak ever since purchasing in 2016, and this season I didn't notice until two late that it was soaking the OSB floor and resulted in a rotten spot. I cut it out replaced with treated plywood. I thought it might be worth others...
The cargo doors on our Sunseeker 2430S aren’t large enough to accommodate our camping chairs and tables. Sometimes we took director’s chairs....handy for visiting other’s campsites for evening campfires while “social distancing”. (Never mind the prices shown in the photos) Temporarily, we had...
In the past I have been able to keep my campers plugged in over the winter. However, this year I have an Isata 3 which is my first Motorhome. I don’t have any problems with winterizing, but my question is about the batteries. The unit is stored inside without power available. The battery...
I have a 2011 Georgetown 378 that I'm unable to lock the water locker. The key only turns part way and won't go all the way to the left. I don't really relish leaving it unlocked. I was trying to either swap it for another less important cabinet or get it repaired. The two screws that appear...
I have a new 37FLB. Love the layout and the unit. The underneath storage is large and great... BUT there is a "pass-through" area between the rear storage and the side storage. I can't figure out the best utilization of that space? Any ideas or thoughts?
Hi everyone! Quick newbie question about winter storage. We have a 2020 Cedar Creek 37FLB and are getting ready to close it for the year. Any thoughts on storing it on the tires vs the auto leveling jacks? I’ve read the tires may flat spot if you don’t use the jacks, but with all the popping...
Good day All,
I am looking for a way to access the 12v power source to my IRV Technologies sound system. I don't see any access points. It's pretty well closed in.
I want to jump off the power to put a 12v charger for phones, speakers behind the TV. There is constant 12V power to the sound...
Eventually I am planning to have a tow vehicle or trailer to use for storage behind my Isata 5 Ram 5500. At the moment I don't have that and need to add some storage space for upcoming travel. There is too much to look at online for stuff being offered. Anyone have any experience or...
I am committed to making the jump to Lithium batteries from the 6 volt golf cart setup I currently run. My only unresolved issue is winter storage. I live in Colorado and we usually will have one or two periods during the winter of below zero weather. Highs of only 30 degrees are also very...
Good day,
I am planning to order in a 2021 2150 Sun seeker or 2151 Forester unit.
Since I exclusively dry camp, I need to ensure that will have plenty of amps for the 12 DC fridge for those rainy / cloudy days.
My plan a is to max out the solar, so I have enough to run the fridge in...
We have a 425D with the Easy reach storage trunk in front. When the camper is not being used, a lot of condensation collects and runs into the plastic bin. We have been using the camper this summer so it is parked in our driveway right now.
Is there any solution for this? The inside of the...
While I posted this on Georgetown forum I'd be happy to hear from anyone who charges their coach batteries with solar.
I currently keep my coach batteries charged by a 200w solar panel with a PWM control because I have no access to power where it's ( mh) stored. It works just fine from Spring...
Just bought a new Flagstaff A Frame 21HWDM. It has a outside storage unit with a plastic cover. You lift the cover and it has a kickstand type handle on each side that pop up to keep open. One side of the cover has plastic with grooves that the kickstand handle can slide on to keep cover at...
