I'm making an extended trip into a hot area, and often my Dometic fridge does not cool adequately. It has no fans at the back to help cooling, and so I'm adding 4 thermostat controlled fans, as well as some baffling, to help. What is unclear to me is...
I finally got my Xantrex ProWatt SW 2000 installed into my rig.Functionally, everything seems great. I can run the hair dryer (on 800W setting anyway) and microwave at the same time.I finished setting it up after sundown and did my initial testing in...
I am in the final stages of installing a Xantrex Prowatt SW inverter. The inverter will be hardwired into the coach's AC system through a transfer switch (the other AC source is shore power and is wired into the other switch input).This inverter has ...
I understand the need for a battery monitor - certainly the analogy of monitoring your fuel level via a fuel pressure gauge strikes home (although it's a little bit off). I want to get one.What I can't get over is the price. They seem to hover at the...
I'm looking to finish a DYI inverter install and want to buy battery wire in fat gauges around 0, crimped. I want to keep all the runs as short as possible so want to specify an exact length, like 14 inches, rather than just getting a stock 2 foot ca...

Right, I'm planning on using all four fans to promote a good bottom to top flow, two in-between the vents, and two on the top vent to expel the hot air. I still kind of need to know what need to be cooled though, since it affects fan placement and ba...
