I need to do some research on my own unit (2006 Tiffin Phaeton). This is my first off season as the owner of the coach and started off, after winterizing, by having surgrry that severely limits my activities for the next three months. I am having to depend on my wife and others to do anything, which makes me feel helpless as a lifetime DIY'er. So far, she has driven out to the storage lot and run it about once a week but we haven't really had any really cold weather.
The batteries don't sound too zippy but I think there is a way to get a boost off the house batteries. Once again, I haven't done enough homework.
The Trik-L-Start's power cord sounds like something I need if it doesen't have a built-in feature that accomplishes the same objective.
If I don't make much sense, forgive me. These meds, although they slow down the pain, put my head in a fog, so I'll just shut up and try to get my manuals here to study.
The Trik-L-Start does not have, or need, nor can it use, a power cord. It only works when your RV is plugged in. It works off of the converter.
The battery boost relay you are referring to is exactly WHERE I installed my Trik-L-Start. You have access to perfect installation lugs for all 3 wires the Trik-L-Start has in a space of about 6 inches.
