Hi guys, I think I have a handle on what needs to happen with charging. I've been discouraged from buying an AIMS inverter/charger and the other options are either too expensive or won't fit into the limited space I have in the rig. As a result I'm...
Hi all, I've been diving back into how to upgrade my battery system in my class B and was hoping someone here could sanity check me. I have a small 100AH 12V coach battery and I'm upgrading to a pair of L16s (6V, 400AH). My RT has the old MagnaTe...
Hi guys, I'm hoping I'm wrong and someone will point something out to me that I haven't considered. I just purchased 2 L-16 batteries from some off-brand (that is supposedly US Battery underneath it all) that cost me $810. They're 6V, 400AH, which,...
I think you're right. I've been in the guts of the rig more now so I have a better idea of what can and can't be done. I plan on sticking to sunny places so solar was probably the right answer the whole time.
The original distribution panel is still in it, AC and DC, along with a simple converter/charger (MagnaTek). The system is 30amp. So the shore power cable runs to the current distribution panel. My plan was to set up an entirely separate system wi...
I haven't bought the inverter or the charger yet. Space limitations mean I can't use Magnum, so I was thinking to buy them separately. Thanks for the recommendation on the Progressive Dynamics charger - I was wondering where to start after discardi...
Thanks for the photos. I was unnecessarily concerned about voltage drop across bus bars like that, but it looks like they're in pretty common use and of course really convenient. I also noticed while I was working in my coach that more of the cable...
I'll definitely look into replacing the solenoid, this rig only has 70k miles but it does have a lot of years on it. And that's good information to have about the computer regulating voltage.Right, so one power source would be:400 AH L16s -> inverte...
