That's the "death spiral" I mentioned that ARV described. Electrical use was outstripping available electrical input. Since Voltstart does not come on until you are near DOD then you are running...

Marko,

As usual manufacturers quote ideal conditions. Keep in mind most batteries are in the back of the van and there is line loss and what not. I have no idea what wire size Roadtrek uses but...

It's not faith. It is knowledge. I don't need an infrared thermometer as I know pretty much from three different Class Bs in progressively more insulation how they perform in that regard. Our...

Magnet?

My Balmar readout is under my dash on the driver side. Only it is mounted upside down and you are right about the readout going fast. It was impossible to mentally keep up with it upside...

Greg,

I've read that. They could have been computer glitches or some other problems I have not encountered. I've had my share but always recovered. :) I had one shut down from cold temperature...

I get this kind of reply from someone that has to crawl under their B to figure out what they have and still is not sure?
