The big 12v battery in our 2018 400 went belly up a couple weeks ago. Talked to Harris battery and they no longer carry the AGM 4d single 12 volt. They also said they do not supply the US Battery. Thought I saw it in their add. Quoted me a price on the 6 volt AGM at $375 each. Contacted Interstate and they have the AGM 4d…
n the battery, you can hook up 2 6 volts in series (they act as a single battery), or you could use 12 volts wired in parallel. Thus, if you get golf cart batteries that are 6 volt 265 amp, you add the voltage and keep the amps the same (you end up with a 12 volt 265 amp battery set). If you use 12v batteries, you wire in…
pthomas745, many thanks for your helpful response. When you write "The breakaway brakes use about 6 amps per hour, which is a considerable drain on the battery when the plug is pulled." are you referring to the 12 volt battery or a separate battery for the emergency brake? Thank you, too, for the long to another thread.
Running AC battery is possible just not practical yet. I have done the math. your 500w estimate is at 120 volts not at 12 volts. I don't remember the exact numbers but running the ac in my 2020 320 took about 80 amps at 12 volt dc. Going long on the numbers, if you ran the AC for say 6 hours you are looking at 480 amp…
I am expecting my little boy soon. I read alot about the surge protectors you plug in at the posts and many get stolen, they actually recomended a lock kind of box for it. I bought a hard wired progressive surge protector and am having the dealer install before I pick the trailer up, as well as the two 6 volt batteries…
We have a 2017 T@B Outback. trying to find out if the stock WFCO will charge AGM type batteries? I have been told that there is a different type( higher voltage) of charging for AGM. Also read that you can mount AGM batteries in any orientation. Looking to go 2-6 volt AGM batteries mounted on there side in the original…
I know this has been discussed a bunch of times, but I don't think I have found the specific answer I am looking for. We have a 2019 400. It has the original dual 6 volt batteries. They will need to be replaced either this year or next (I will be testing when I dewinterize). When I change the batteries, I am looking at a…
I'm in the process of changing out the batteries in our 2019 Tab 400 BL due to age and decreased performance. I decided on a lithium upgrade, but in your case with limited need for boondocking, AGM replacements are the best choice. What you're looking for are two 6-volt batteries in the 190 or greater amp/hour(AH) range in…
Hi Wanderoo,Old RV people are ALL telling me that the best battery set up is 2 golf cart batteries. (2) 6 volt batteries rather than one 12 volt. I know my T@Baby will come with the battery it has now but I am seriously going to check out what they are ALL saying about this kind of set up being the best for long term…
