Not really that surprising if you look at the older Roadtreks for history, I think. Our 07 C190P had two batteries and two separate grounds, so basically the same issue. It all depends on how...

I haven't been keeping up on all this stuff, but I thought you were a happy Stark user in the Travato. Why not in the Alegro?

You also have the issue that most of the meters look at amps to or from the batteries to check for full, so depending on how many modules were on, they may or may not reset (100% calibration point)...

In the Amazon link it says 18 amps of DC? You can use almost that much charging your laptop. I wonder how many BTU continuous it will do.

OOps the 18 amps must be at 48 volts which is needs as a...

Very possibly Roadtrek started releasing information the lithium battery stuff and other new items earlier than planned due to their loss of the #1 sales spot. The timing was very close.

If the autostart is triggering off of voltage, and the voltage holds too high for too long, the autostart won't start soon enough.

Several of the generator auto starts work off of state of charge...

They will always charge extra is the think people want it, and will pay more for it. Actual cost often has nothing to do with selling price.

What is with the discoloration on the crossbeam of the bed? It looks like someone was welding on it.

Interesting that is shows the forward facing sofa, it appears, but I don't know if anyone has ever seen a Zion with one.

If Roadtrek puts the tire in the back, it will probably be a fold down carrier like the other models, and not a door mount. Has anyone asked Chrysler what their rules are about door mounts? Maybe...

I would guess that the likely thing they would do would be to make the magic boxes each 12v and use 2 for any 24v systems, similar to the two groups of 12v AGMs they use now. Hopefully someone will...

I would have to assume 12v based on the fact that they said they could update existing systems on the dealer lots, but if they would be willing to change out the inverter/charger and engine generator...

Without knowing how they control things, and the all the secrecy about it, I don't think anyone can make an informed recommendation on if it is a good or bad system. As always with Roadtrek, you...

I do think this goes back to the proprietary thing again. We all can speculate, and either be cynical and say it can't work, or say trust Roadtrek they know what they are doing.

Based on that...

Very interesting! I looked at the spec sheet on the T-105 Trojan version and it showed about 1700 cycles at 50% discharge and 1000 at 80%, which is nearly double the normal wet or AGM. However,...

I continue to find it very, very, interesting that Roadtrek continues to call their stuff "proprietary" but you never, ever, hear of any patent or patent pending going on.

That would have to mean...

The batteries probably go all in the same place, so you might not be able to have all of both kinds at the same time. It will be interesting to see how they do that. The AGM part may just be a...

I have also wondered about double systems with some AGM in them. The big trouble with the lithium kicking out is that you lose the battery in the system needed to activate and stabilize the engine...

Roadtrek pricing has been increasing very rapidly on lots of models. $108K MSRP for a 190P at Lake Regions. Our 07 with all options at the time was MSRP of $77K.

At least this time they backed off quickly and didn't spend many months telling folks they were dumb and shouldn't be questioning what Roadtrek claimed. :mrgreen::mrgreen:

Yep--like I said earlier, it would be a good business model, I think. If the dealer does it on their own, though, they somehow have to convince Roadtrek to sell them the lithium "magic" stuff, which...
