Re: Ok to run shore power without battery?
Problem Yes. Because the converter is malfunctioning , the voltage us too high, running from the converter only is going damage the control boards for the fridge, air condition, heater, water heater , maybe burn out your water pump and vent fans, replace your converter, without a battery what will you do if shore power fails, everything will turn off , no heat, no water, no lights, even the fridge b will turn off2.7KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Inverter Output Power Question
I have 2000/4000 PSW watt inverter , i use one socket of the duplex outlet and can power anything i choose, i often use the inverter to heat up food or coffee, i don't know of any home/RV MW that uses more than 1675 watts input for 1100 cooking watts, In short "you are good to go" I have run the mw, vacuum cleaner, coffee maker, even my electric impact wrench, 1800w heat gun, hair dryer, You just need enough battery capacity to supply the needed power1.7KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Free VPN?
I'm still running Windows 8, on my laptop, Android 12 on my phone, this n tablet has Android 10, I have "duck duck go" tracking blocker running on both the tablet and the phone, it's not a VPN hiding my geo location, but it does prevent all those background apps from sending all my info to data collection firms including Big Brother Goggle, almost every App on all Android devices is running trackers in the background, even though I/You did not open the app,1.5KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Recommendations for solar charge/controller
Suggestion Get a DC marine type circuit breaker, 50 amp is good 100 amp would be better, place in circuit between the panels and the solar charger controller, then whenever you need to switch battery Banks, or any kind of battery service , you can easily open the circuit , safely disconnecting the panels, preventing damage to the controller, I also installed a DC breaker between my batteries and my 2000w psw inverter, that one is rated at 250 amps1.7KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Installing an oven into a former rental rv
Every MH i have owned the Microwave was a full size home unit, not a trucker / RV special size unit, that said I would take a tape measure and get the dimensions of the space available, i think the odds Favor swapping out the factory MW with a MW/convection unit1.8KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Generator bogging when A/C is turned on
Is this fresh gas? Stale fuel can do this.. It's also possible the A/C unit needs a new start/tun capacitor, this is a low vost part and easy to replace, try running just the Fan Mode , what happens, how does it sound, 3 things in the a/c can cause this problem, bad capacitor, bad compressor, bad fan motor. 81.6KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Take apart signal lite switch? - Hi beam on with right turn
For Non Functioning take it apart clean it up , This sounds like worn out allowing contacts for different functions that should not touch, to connect, Although it could be worn wires touching in the steering column harness956Views0likes0CommentsRe: Take apart signal lite switch? - Hi beam on with right turn
