How many GAS coaches out there with "50 amp service"?
Gang,
There are various threads being discussed here and there, concerning battery charging while driving, while plugged in, generator running and all that. Many of these issues are dealt with differently, on not only different brand/make and model coaches but, different chassis and engine systems ones too.
As I understand things, about 99% of the diesel pushers out there, are equipped with or, I should say come equipped with from the factory, with a larger house battery bank and, an "Inverter/Charger".
While most GAS coaches come from the factory equipped with a "Converter/Charger" and, a smaller setup for house batteries.
As with just about anything, there are most likely, exceptions to the basic "rules" I just stated. And, I've not done any actual research on the net or, any other potential source of info to find out more. I just thought I'd ask folks on here, ACTUAL OWNERS if they have one or, are aware of any GAS coaches, that come from the factory with a 50A shore power cord and, a larger house battery bank, i.e. at least two or four, 6V deep cycle batteries or, at a minimum of two, 12V deep cycle/marine house batteries.
I know there's "Heavy duty" Gas coaches out there that are running the larger 22.5" tires and wheels which, most likely also means that the frames, chassis, front and rear suspensions are of higher ratings too. Some of those I might assume, are rated in GVW that are very close to some of the lighter Diesel versions out there. I say "Lighter" meaning not the ones with tag axles and, ratings of say, oh, around 35K and up.
And, since those ultra heavy duty gas coaches have traits of the diesel versions, I was wondering if, those traits carried on with a 50A shore power setup and, a larger battery bank???? Thanks for reading.
