Re: Battery dead every time
Old-Biscuit wrote: I would: Check Converter DC output at converter AND at battery..is it really charging Check battery voltage with a voltmeter Check water levels in each battery cell Then using a hydrometer check each cell specific gravity Then take battery to any auto parts store and have it load tested IF everything tests good......... Connect voltmeter between battery neg. post and neg. cable and measure amp draw Then start pulling DC fuses to isolate circuit that is draining battery. YES there are parasitic drains on battery...LP Detector, Radio memories etc. but they should not cause a charged battery to go dead in 2 weeks......several weeks yes. I was thinking the same thing unfortunately. My previous 5er had the similar parasitic drains and could last up to a month maybe two at best. I was hoping someone would say check this or that.... I will definitely be take my vom to the items mentioned and have the battery tested ...thanks for the advice fellas.! I will also look into the battery disconnects seems that will make life a lot easier.365Views0likes0CommentsBattery dead every time
Never had this problem in my previous 5er, but something is killing my battery. I had it charged up two weeks ago when being used and this week it's dead again. All lights/fans are off, tvs are unplugged, fridge is off. Maybe I'm missing something... Any suggestions? Oh and battery is a little over year old, I'm hoping it's not the battery but anything is possible.3.3KViews0likes15CommentsRe: Keeping Cool
It is very hard get these AC units to cool the camper when it is 90+ outside. Over the Fourth of July ours ran all day it seemed like, and we do have a 2015 model. Thankfully ours is setup for a second ac in the bedroom which I am seriously considering having installed soon. Our next trip will be up in elevation so it will be substantially cooler.:)293Views0likes0Comments
