    Battery Bank - Mixed Capacities

    Should I worry that if the Optima goes bad that it could damage the other batteries or equipment? What battery do you recommend for a fourth? 2x Deka AGM, 1x Optima blue top, and 1x ...?

    Battery Bank - Mixed Capacities

    So different capacities are ok to connect in parallel. Would I have any issue with the different style batteries? The Deka Intimidators (2x 92AHr) are plates and the Optima (1x 75 AHr) are "spiral". The Optima blue top says "deep cycle". Please recommend a fourth battery. Any risk to Outback...

    Battery Bank - Mixed Capacities

    Please share your experience. I was planning on buying 4x T-105 6V flooded batteries for a series-parallel bank, but I have 2x good 12V 92 Ahr (C20) Intimidator AGM batteries that I have not been able to sell. Now I'm considering lower cost options because I only intend to use this system for 6...

    Transmission Temps Towing

    Does the aux Tran Cooler need the thermostat sensor or should I just run it all the time? What is the best terminal for power supply?

    Transmission Temps Towing

    Is it better to install the cooler underneath adjacent to the transmission or upfront in front of the other coolers? Would an auxiliary transmission cooler make a significant difference for a 68RFE towing 16,000#? This does not change the heat generation. Should I consider options to manually...

    Connecting Batteries into Solar System

    My generator is a Champions 2800W / 3100W peak gasoline. A 15000BTU AC is pushing/exceeding the limits of the geny. I'm not sure the concequences of running AC and microwave at same time. I could manually operate one at a time, but it sure be nice to run the AC off geny and rest of 120V off...

    Connecting Batteries into Solar System

    I checked that the solar panels were each 48V (all in parallel) with a multimeter. I'll take the original trailer batteries (12V AGMs) to auto store to test capacity. If they are good, I'll use them. If not, I'll replace those. I could get another one or two 12V batteries and combine them with...

    Connecting Batteries into Solar System

    To clarify, Trailer had two separate battery systems: Original Trailer Battery Bank: - 2x 12V AGM 92AHr in parallel (Marine Deep Cycle - Intimidators) - Only connected to 12V systems - Only charged by grid or generator through InteliPOwer Charge Wizard Converter/Charger 9200 Series Existing...

    Connecting Batteries into Solar System

    I'm not trying to run the AC on battery. I want to run the ac on geny and the 120V on solar batteries. How would I hook AC directly to generator and still run microwave with solar batteries / inverter. Also my solar batteries are not wire to run 12V systems. Still have the original trailer...

    Transmission Temps Towing

    The transmission fluid dip stick looked clean. I'm still trying to figure out what routes I can take without watching my trans sump temp the whole time. Please give advice to compare aftermarket options: Deep pan vs Cooler

    Connecting Batteries into Solar System

    I bought the NuWa from consignment. The solar batteries are not hooked up to the original 12V system that powers the slides and fridge, so I need to figure out how to charge that dry camping. I'll have my generator, so I could run it a could hours. Does the original 12V battery bank get any...

    Connecting Batteries into Solar System

    Hello all, I'd like help figuring out the re-hooking up existing power systems on a used 2008 NuWa 34LKTG 5er (all components are 8-9 years old). The existing solar components include: Solar Panels: 4x 150-200W? (TBD)     - Roof fixed mounted     - No labels on top or sides.     - ~2.5x5'...

    Tire Age

    I'm not sure that BF Goodrich E-rated tires have enough design margin for the 16,000 lb trailer. Any discount G-rated tires? Where are the best deals for G614s? Do I need alignment? because I can mount the tires/wheels myself. I'll need a shop to do stems, wheel assembly, and balance.

    The Goodyear G614 LTs were the original. NuWa service still uses them as replacements. Any recommendations on finding deals for Goodyear G614s?
