While traveling this weekend, I boondocked twice with unacceptable results. The first night, I only had the refrigerator, directv receiver and stereo amplifier on. The inverter shut down after five hours. The next night, I turned off the amplifiers, directv in sleep mode, and after seven hours the gauge showed 12.2 volts and shut down when I turned on the coffee maker. A Xantrex Link-Pro monitor I had installed independently showed the batteries to be at 90% of capacity when it shut down. I am not sure how old the batteries are, but I will put a load test on them later in the week. All cables are tight. Any suggestions?

I have seen some coaches have what appears to be two Receivers on either side of the slide out for the generator. I have not looked under my slide out for the generator but can you mount a single class III hitch there? I would like to put one on the front so we can put our bike rack there at times and other times we could put a rack I bought for out scooter there.

Can it be done? What hitch do you buy since it seems they all come made to bolt to particular trucks and cars.

I'm near Clandonald, Alberta, CA. 40 miles from any town of any size. I'm on a ranch and the owner tried to fix me up with some shore power. Instead of 110 V he hooked me to 220 V. I think it fried my transfer box. Now when I run my jenny it will charge the batterys, but I have no 110 V anywhere. I can get 110 V if I have the inverter on. With the jenny on the front transfer seems to engage, the back one doesn't move. I have no place to hook up to shore power, so I can't check it. The 2 fuses on th transfer box are ok. Is there anything else I can check to get the 110 to work from the jenny? Ithrow some of the breakers in the bedroom. Thanks for your suggestions and help in advance. It's nice and cool here.

Stopped working a couple weeks ago. Pulled the panel over microwave, disconnected red wire to reset it. Still reads 0. I believe the red/black/green wires going to the top of aqua hot are these. Anyway to take off the cover to access these?

this just started happening. the connections are ok. if you short the wire to the gauge that the sender is on it scrolls high like it should. i ran a jumper to the sender on the genny and it works. the sender ohms out to 1.1k ohms which is in spec.

so i have a bad wire from the sender to the gauge over the driver. not gonna be any fun to run new one. sounds like a wintertime project
