Richard, I figured something was up as the volt reading was 12.06v and the batteries are at 13.0. Yes, I am going with LED's. This thing was just downright dangerous to drive at night. I had to follow tail lights to know which direction the curves were up ahead. With the new driving lights, I will be able to resume my midnight runs again. I prefer driving overnight to avoid traffic. On a side note, the original halogen lamps have a date code of January 1991! Goes to show they had an extended life due to low voltage!
Jack, I have a high volume pump built in the pit that is automatic. You could go with dual pumps with one being a backup. We get 1-3" of rain an hour when it hits and I have not had even 1" of water build with the one pump. Since you are like me and have the ability to work on your coach, I think a pit is nothing more than another tool in the box. I almost consider it a must if you have back issues. For myself, it's more of a fear factor of going under a coach even if it is properly supported since I do work on my own with no one around. It doesn't solve all access issues, but it sure helps.
