Re: Charge House Batteries
sure. if you have 12v batteries, just hook the charger up as you would normally, moving the charger to each battery when done. If you have a big enough charger you can charge more than one battery at a time. If you have 6v batteries, charge in 12v pairs.241Views0likes0CommentsRe: When Do You Leave Arizona in the Spring ?
it kind of depends on what you consider hot. I live here and in some years the daytime high is 90+ in March, although it is nice in the evening. If it was me, I would book through March, then play it by ear. If it is a warm spring, head to a higher elevation.704Views0likes0CommentsRe: Southern AZ in winter - things to see and do?
If you are into the 'old west' I recommend Ft Bowie (but you will need to go by car), and Tombstone. Near Tombstone to the west is Fairbanks which is a ghost town with some buildings being restored. Bisbee is a really interesting mining town southeast of Tombstone.533Views0likes0CommentsRe: Coach Battery Replacement Help
The chassis batteries should be your typical starter battery, not deep cycle. On my inverter/converter there is a set up process where you tell the unit what type of battery is installed for the house so that it handles it properly. Deep cycle is preferred for the house. You need to make sure that your inverter is a 3 stage type unit so it doesn't boil out the battery again (or you need to make sure that the water is topped off on a regular basis)353Views0likes0CommentsRe: How reliable are NADA figures?
Are you looking at new or used? Valuing used is more involved since condition comes into play. Resources like ebay and pplmotorhomes can give you an idea of what a particular unit has sold for, so you can get a general idea of worth. But the value of a beater vs a well kept one can be significant. I assume you have actually looked at units, and not just on line literature. You can't tell build quality without seeing and touching.314Views0likes0CommentsRe: AZ Highway
If you are heading to the east valley (Scottsdale, Mesa, Tempe, Gilbert, etc), going via Heber and Payson is the way to go, although some of that route is without shoulders, and you have to be carefull through Star Valley as they have photo radar about every 100 feet. If you are going to Phoenix or the west side, taking the interstate may be more efficient.428Views0likes0Comments
