battery

Hello everyone! First timer here. I need help! Please. I’m currently living out of my camper and traveled all the way from California to Alaska with my FWC Raven 2020. I got it checked before my departure and we left off with saying upgrades will be made but the shop was booked up, so I took...

BACKGROUND: We are at home preparing for a 4 month trip and wanted to get a new battery. Our battery is over the 2 year mark and we were starting to see some degradation in its ability to hold a charge and power the jacks without shore power supplementing. I upgraded from a flooded lead battery...

Hello! New to the forum and just picked up my GD Reflection 324MBS. We love it, but having some issues getting the Compass Connect Panel to actually show what my pair of Lithium batteries charge is. I was doing a test to see how long I could run the fridge off just the two 105Ah Lithium's I...

Just bought a 2024 Momentum 23g this year. It came with 2 x 200W solar panels, and a WFCO WF-5220 2000W Inverter (pictured, on the floor). I opened up the access panel in the front external storage compartment, and found a lot of empty space above the inverter and next to the solar controller...

My 2023 Imagine Aim 15RB has capacity for a second battery. Any recommendations on brand and size?

My new LiFePO4 battery arrived! I measured before ordering and when I saw it would fit inside the cabinet of my 2017 Fleet (front dinette), I figured all was good. But I didn't think about how it had to go through the cabinet door at an angle, and turns out there isn't enough clearance. Obvious...

I have a stock furrion battery monitor for my two battery setup. It came from the dealership this way. They reset the monitor once as it was not reading correctly. Now again, my monitor is showing something almost 40% different than the control panel. I realize these may never completely match...

We purchased a new 2022 28G a few months ago. It is loaded with solar and all of the additional options. There are 2 battery disconnect switches. One is in the tiny storage compartment and the other is in the water management compartment. My questions: 1. What is the difference between the...

I recently did a battery upgrade to two 12 V 105 AH Lion Safari UT 1300 batteries in parallel. Each battery has a 150 amp max continuous output (so 300 Amp capacity total). I also installed a Renogy 2000W Pure Sine Wave inverter through Amazon. Everything initially worked fine. But, as I was...

Keeping your rig clean on the road. Doing some cleaning this morning in preparation for Hood River Adventure Van Expo next weekend. Thought I'd share my vacuum setup that I carry with us in the van. It's an older Dyson unit that's running an adapter allowing me to use my Milwaukee Tool...

Setup: FWC Hawk 2008 Single 12v battery No solar, charged from truck alternator or Shore power After a winter of draining the battery down we decided/were advised to get a Victron BMV 712 battery monitor. While installing the monitor I have a wiring question. (question in italics below) I'm...

Hey all! I'm trying to trouble shoot a battery issue with our 2018 4 wheel swift camper and wanted some expert advice. We have a solar setup and its been outside under the sun when we're not using the camper. I went to get the camper setup for some winter camping and when I turned on the...

Happy New Year, I am looking to get rid of the factory installed LA battery for two (2) SOK 12V 206Ah LiFePO4 Battery Bluetooth&Built-in heater. I want to wire them in parallel and run them through a Progressive Dynamics 60Amp LiFePO4 Converter Charger to a Victron BMV-712 Battery Monitor with...

I just purchased a new 2023 2600RB. I would like to install an aftermarket battery sensor near the main control panel (the panel near the entry door that runs the lights and other sensors). I don't think I'll have any problem getting behind the panel and getting wire from there the floor but...

Hello everyone- First time poster, please be gentle. I have a 2022 Imagine 22MLE. I've spent a lot of time in the RV traveling and now have my first major issue. Getting it into Service is a month long wait....Very frustrating. My battery started dying overnight while at a campsite. This...

We have a 2017 Imagine 2950RL. The GD parts-locator says our converter/charger has a 55 amp output. Does anyone know how much of that goes to recharging the battery (or where I can find out)? In Nov, we will be dry camping for a few nights (first time, and in the cold) in a park allowing...

OK so. I have a 2004 Outfitter Caribou 6.5 sitting on a 2020 F150. I am having some trouble wiring the truck to the camper to charge the battery while driving. The camper is fairly old and was purchased recently from the original owner who was charging the same way on a 04 Tundra. So I am...

After reading many posts here and a couple of calls to BattleBorn, I successfully made the change over from LA Batteries to a LiFePO. My change over was simple compared to most. Just one battery for now. The booger was finding the charger/converter so I could swap it out as well. I was told...

I am in the process of converting my 2022 Transcend Xplor 247bh to LiFePO4 batteries. I decided to put them under the front bed (not interested in discussing the placement). I switched to this Progressive Dynamics lithium converter from BestConverter.com (who were awesome to work with by the...

I am an ASE Certified master mechanic close to retirement so electrical issues are no problem for me. I just pulled our "NEW" 303RLS out of RV bay to ready for the season and my 12 volt battery was dead. I thought I hit the disconnect when stored so I charged the battery and load tested it...

What are your thoughts on replacing my existing Interstate battery with a new Battle Borne Lithium Ion battery, in my Imagine RBE? I have a small solar dealer installed system. Some people suggest I get the Lithium Ion

Hey all! Got a bit of a weird one (at least for me). I recently made the switch over to LIFEPO4 batteries and also installed a PD9160ALV from Progressive dynamics. Everything has been working fantastically so far. This weekend I finally installed a battery monitor so that I could see what the...
