Re: DVR - how to record using Verizon cell phone hot spot?
bighatnohorse wrote: My only internet access is by using the wifi hotspot generated by my cellphone data plan. I'd like to record some over the air (OTA) TV shows. Can it be done? How? OTA TV and Internet don't go together. You need a DVR with a built-in tuner and an appropriate antenna. Your phone and the Internet don't figure into it at all.311Views0likes0CommentsRe: converter runs constant
As was said, not enough information. The converter is SUPPOSED to run constantly, dropping to something around 13.3 Volts to "float" the batteries when they are fully charged. If the voltage really stays much higher than that seemingly forever, then only two real likely causes: Bad converter or worn out batteries.......or after a while on a bad converter, maybe both now.604Views0likes0CommentsRe: Water pump problem Winnebago Sunova
Well you are gonna have to prove whether or not there is power going to the pump. For that, you need a meter and access to the pump......and you can look for a breaker on the pump while there. If it IS getting power, then the pump has failed.....or the pressure switch which is also part of the pump.437Views0likes0CommentsRe: Built in Trickle charger on AC unit
jimroach wrote: Unfortunately, where I have to store it, leaving it plugged in is not an option, just bought a trickle charger for the chassis battery, just don’t know about the house charger I hope what you bought really is a smart tender type automatic charger and NOT a cheap trickle charger. The difference is important. THEN....if you have a place to plug in a battery charger for the chassis battery.....why can you NOT just plug in the whole rig ? OR get a second tender for the house batteries ?? Of course, if you have a "good" solar charger with a charge controller and it sits out in the sun, that might be all you need for the house batteries, once you figure out how it works.714Views0likes0CommentsRe: Built in Trickle charger on AC unit
First, this has nothing to do with the AC unit. Second, you need to find out what make and model of "charger" you actually have. It should be a "smart" tender type battery maintainer and NOT a cheap trickle charger. Then, you need to invest a few $$ in a multi-meter so you can test things like this for yourself to be sure. So....to get anything near to a good answer, more information is needed.238Views0likes0CommentsRe: Look for Data Plan that throttles to greater than 3G
BroncosFan wrote: Anyone know of a LTE data only plan that.... beyond 50 GB is throttled to above 3G around 1 mbps (Besides Simple mobile) that is around $50 to 60 bucks a month? Thanks Several things about this question that doesn't make sense to me. First, does ANY cellular phone carrier really offer "data only" plans ? I doubt it. Then....why the concern and unique requirements for what happens beyond the first 50G ? Several carriers offer "unlimited" plans but each has their own definition of what "unlimited" means. I think you need to be a bit more realistic here and conform your "needs" to what is actually available.399Views0likes0CommentsRe: Pilot RV Plus Card

mrlightrail wrote: I don't think you read my post completely. this store DOES accept the card at the fuel pumps, GAS and DIESEL, And DOES ACCEPT THE CARD IN THE STORE. So, it's NOT a dealer location per your description. It is a Pilot station that is violating rules. You don't have a full grasp of the situation. Accepting the credit card.....and allowing a discount......are two DIFFERENT things. The credit card part is likely really a VISA or Mastercard "branded" card. I still say that the pumps should be clearly marked.....or a message should come up on the screen indicating that there in no discount. NOT doing that is fraud in my book. AND...suggesting downloading another invasive APP is NOT an acceptable solution.0Views0likes0Comments
