    solar generator or 2nd lithium or both or neither?

    Solved problem…bought a portable generator that recharges battery to 100% in one hour. By morn battery drains 30-35% down to 65%. At 70% appliances and outlets automatically shut off. At 20% everything shuts off so battery doesn’t drain to 0. Dry camping again in Arizona and Utah and as...

    solar generator or 2nd lithium or both or neither?

    The only monitor i have is the lithioncs battery app - Bluetooth. it basically shows stored power and battery charge %. I'll look into a battery monitor like Victron.

    Extended Warranty/Dealer Service

    I bought EW on my 2019 TT. now 4 years later we are upgrading. The warranty really doesn't cover anything and one time i needed, it was cheaper to hire a RV repairman than pay the deductible and wait 3 months at the dealership. For my upgrade, I will put the cost of the EW in savings and pay as...
