Wow - you guys are awesome, and fast.
Here are some of the answers:
Thanks everyone -
Here are some of the answers:
- re: electric water heater on - what is odd is that when I was sanitizing the fresh water tank and running some water through the sink, there was hot water. But the switch for the heater is set to off.
- re: battery disconnected and refrigerator on. The refrigerator was off for most of the time when I've been dealing w/ this issue. If I set it to on but use gas, will that still be drawing electricity?
- re: power converter online: I tried switching the circuit breaker for the converter to off, but that shut off a bunch of stuff. How should I handle shutting it off?
- re: was it checked out before purchased? Yes, the seller took it to an RV dealer of my choosing for an inspection, but I wasn't there for it - supposedly they did a complete test...though I noticed a small, slow leak in the freshwater tank last night around the gauge wire, so not sure how thorough it was.
- re: generator size: it's a Predator inverter with 3500W starting, 3000W running. It has a 30A outlet with a 30A twist lock adapter that I used w/ my 30 amp cord to the trailer. The generator says it shouldn't exceed 25 amps, but it will run for a bit when it has more - but it gets super hot
Thanks everyone -
