OK, so you had 550# tongue weight before moving the batteries.
Was the WDH installed & being used when you had that 550# on the tongue ?
You indicated that you moved the batteries for security purposes & to lessen tongue weight.
If you were not using a WDH with the 550# tongue weight. I'd suggest putting the batteries back on the tongue.
At 4000 lbs TT loaded, 550# puts you at approx. 14% tongue weight, which is fine. Is 550# too much for your TV ?
Just curious, but why do you have 4-6 volt batteries ?
unfortunately i did a bunch of changes at once, i needed to move the batteries so the WD hitch could be installed.. i thought moving them more to the axle would be a positive thing, i suppose not. #500 is too much for my TV without WD, my hitch is rated #500
I got tired of messing with battery/power issues while dry camping so i went a little overkill :) rather too much than not enough.
