Re: Odd Electrical Trouble

I use 100 amp hours as typical single deep cycle capacity rating. As an average, it might be a bit on the high side. 80ah to 120ah is the range of ratings I've seen.
So, with a 100ah capacity and...

You could make a playing card sized laminated cardboard sign with "Fridge on battery" written on it and clip it on to your van key ring whenever the fridge is on battery. I've started putting a sign...

Re: Odd Electrical Touble

I should mention that I assumed that you have a single house battery with a 100 ah capacity. So you can see the impact a 15 amp hour load for three hours would have. 1/2 the capacity could be gone....

Re: Odd Electrical Touble

Short answer: I wouldn’t worry about the fan etc. The monitor panel is off a bit. KiB’s allow for a 5% tolerance which is a lot. Full or C might be lit up at less than 12.7 volts. Your battery...
