I put in a new chassis battery in October. It sat in enclosed storage, and in January, I went over and had to use the generator to start the RV. I put the chassis battery on a trickle charger and came back about 6 weeks later. It started just fine. I had the RV on 15a shore power the whole...

Has anybody opened up access to the dead space behind the battery box? In way of explanation: I'm looking to install new batteries, inverter, and solar. I noticed there is a big space right behind the battery box that is completely unused. I can sort of see why they didn't put it in the...

Hello, I have a Northpoint 37 RLBH and when I got it back from service noticed the under island ribbon LED would not turn off. I didn't think much of it because I figured the power its consumed would be counterbalanced by the Solar Panels. Well, I was wrong as my battery's were dead a few...

A few mods I have done to my 2022 24RDS. I dislike the bedside "closets" in RV's. Too small to use as a hanging closet. They are just one big dump space where crap is piled on top of other stuff. I added a shelf and drawers to make it actually useable. There used to be one drawer in each closet...
