lol I have a hydrometer, and I carry it with me... But having 8 people camping with you I didnt have time to open the batt boxes and do a hydrometer test. Two grandkids 4 and 2 yrs keep you busy.
But I figures with full batts the first day I would wake up with better then 11.9v -11.8v the next morning.. That was the 3 12 volts @ 220 aH...
As I said second day I just tried the two batts as I though I nay have had a parisitic draw from the truck.. Well 10.5v the next day wasnt good, and that day we were leaving..
Im trying to find the current dimentions of whats in there now so I can chose what I can fit in there...
I dont want a stand alone and just want to replace the bottom end for simplicity..
I wonder if I brought my old 50 amps sears charger from 1985 and put on 50 amp start for 1 hour or so I would get better results...
