RE: Suggestions for RV panel install, long run
If you don't need a permit wire as you like. If you are supposed to get a permit wire it as required in case you get popped. At least that's how I cheat. I cheat but I don't leave myself open to double the cost. Risk reward I suppose
Very Bad advice, save a couple $$ burn something down! Two things I don't cheat on Electric and Gas, all done to code!
#4 copper wire in conduit. Use four wires.
Very Good advice!
To the OP, you state you are coming directly off the power pole, is this before or after the meter??
If before the meter you will also require a meter base (This would also be best as you would get a separate bill).
If post meter, and you are truly hooking up to her 200 amp panel, you should be sure that she can share that much amperage, and how are you planning to share the bill?
Learn to read, I told him to wire by code as I do even if not getting a permit. If he doesn't want to wire it to code as many do then that's for him to expierence

RE: Costco battery?
A group 27. Marine/RV
Group 27
Sam's clubs do not exist here.
As I stated before C-O-S-T-C-O
ITS AN EXAMPLE OF A GROUP 27 BATTERY RV MARINE. MY GOD this is not all that difficult. Probably the most used size unless your RV or dealer was cheap cheap cheap then you got a 24.

RE: Watts Help Needed.
You also have to carry the load of the RV itself which can be an amp or so. My 2000 watt xantrax idles at .5 amp. I also don't think inverting to the coffee maker on one battery is good.

RE: Original Lino floor split
I used peel and stick tile because we wanted a stone look vs wood planks. I removed the carpet and linoleum. I then used a latex primer on the OSB floor to seal the wood. Tile doesn't like to stick to a porous wood surface vs something with a sealed more gloss like surface.

I had a few places with little triangle cuts etc that didn't stick well but used a little goop to glue them down. My slide did scratch a couple tiles but all I have to do is peel them up and replace with some spares I kept on hand

RE: Do extra batteries need ventilation?
You can place the batteries farther away but use large gauge cable. Balance the connections. It may seem like a waste of wire but it will even up discharge/charging.

Check out the Slabs sometime. That guy will look like a punk afterwards. Don't stay at the Slabs and don't eat the veggies grown in human waster at East Jesus. Lol. Just visit and get out before dark.

RE: Craggy Wash B LM near Lake Havasu City AZ
Iirc I stayed at one north of there last fall called lone tree . It's not huge but I was able to double tow down the hill on the left and circle around down there.
With craggy being closer to town it may have more people that are called the mobile homeless. Not all that go there are of course but often times closer to towns has the worst of them.
If you are broke then staying close to necessities is a must.

RE: Downsizing to smaller rig, battery capacity
I run 2 CPAPs with the built in humidifiers off of 2 6V batteries and will run the heat as needed, generally it doesn't get below 40 here most times.
Are you counting AH down? What's your morning voltage? How are you recharging. Two 6's would hold up better than two group.

RE: WFCO converter causing generator to rev up and down
Thanks for the info., you folks are great. Anyone want to buy a boat anchor? ??
Joking aside we love to help people out. Wfco often times won't go to 14.4 unless the battery is very low or they don't hold that voltage as long as needed. If you are sitting on a cord after traveling 13.6 will bring the battery back up but it takes a good deal of time.
People often times just move on and put the money into a PD or whatever. When running on a generator it's all about cutting run time so 14.4 is mandatory and many choose to buy a unit that does 14.8.
For Trojan wet cells they suggest 14.8 daily charges, so people often like buying good quality Trojans but don't realize what Trojan suggests.
