Battery Question
Edited to add: The battery is fine, the Charge Wizard did it's job and the battery was fully charged and perfect. I on the other hand am a dork. I forgot that I had hit the "Battery Disconnect" switch yesterday and of course today I wasn't getting any power when I disconnected from Shore power so I thought the battery had died. Thank you though for all the input.
So I need help with a Battery Question, if the House battery in my coach is a Full River, Deep Cycle Dry Battery do I have to replace it with the same type?
I ask as apparently when money was no object we bought and had this battery installed, (probably because I told the person I did not want to have to deal with it, as it is in a very annoyingly difficult to deal with area.
We have a very good family friend who works at a Battery store and can get us a very nice discount, but it is still a big chunk of change to replace same for same. He is getting a new job (waiting for the last minute details and his start date) so he will be leaving and so will our discount so if I need to replace this I want to do it NOW!
I think the current battery is a 2009 and right now it is dead, I have it hooked up to a charger and am hopeful that it will come back, but seeing as how we just had to replace the engine battery I think it might also need to be replaced. BUT I do not want to pay that much again.
So my question is do you have a battery you recommend for the house battery? I do not want to add water as like I said it is in a difficult spot, but I am adding a Battery Minder to it so I can keep it in good shape.
Thanks for the help, Tracy in WA
