My new van buildout thread
I figure I will have a lot of questions so I should put them all in one thread :). I got a new van! Well, an old one, but new to me. It's in another state, and I won't see it in person for a few m...

No, the Amazon reviewer opened the cap on the inline fuse and saw a '30' printed on it and assumed incorrectly.
Oh. Ha ha!
Doesn't the PD9280 require a 20 amp household receptacle, meaning it will not even plug into a standard 15 amp outlet?
Oh, gosh. I thought they just meant the breaker. But google shows me a diff shaped plug. I guess I will need an adapter from rv 30amp, and one for a dryer?
Edit: Do y'all think puck type will get too hot?

Actual gelled electrolyte batteries need the maximum charge rate and voltage limited to prevent bubbles/voids forming in the gelled electrolyte and instantly and forever compromising battery capacity.
Me thinks 80 amps of PD's seeking 14.4v on depleted small capacity gelled electrolyte batteries would be way too much.
Double checking, MK says 14.4 to 14.6 at 68 degrees for their gels.
What I am wondering is, is the PD going to try 80amps and then back off? That sounds pretty bad. I could call their techs this week, but my feeling is like yours -- way too much power and potential for damage.
