How long will the batteries last?
Conduct this eight-hour test to
determine how long your particular
battery bank will operate before
dropping below 50% state of charge.
1. Before beginning the test, be sure
the batteries are at 100% charge by
verifying with a hydrometer or an
accurate voltmeter.
2. Turn on interior house power. Turn
on three lights. Switch refrigerator
operation to propane. Turn on the
inverter and operate a TV for two
hours only. After two hours turn the
TV and the inverter off.
3. After the eight-hour period, turn off
the lights, refrigerator and interior
house power. Allow the battery
electrolyte to stabilize for at least one
to three hours.
Test the batteries again with a hydrometer
or voltmeter. Are the batteries above or below
50% State of Charge? This test will give an
idea of how long your particular battery bank
will actually last.

Light fixtures in the motorhome vary. These
examples reflect a general overview of some of
the more common fixture types. Actual styles
and types may differ.
Interior Halogen

pull down slightly then
tilt fixture to one side.
This will allow one
spring clip to come out.
CAUTION:
Push spring clip
inward with a finger
as clip is being eased
out. If this is not done
spring clip can snap
back on fingers.
Tilt fixture to other side and ease the
other spring clip out.
Unscrew the light lens


Use a clean cloth or piece of tissue to
grasp new bulb. Do Not touch bulb
directly as this can cause a “hot spot”
and result in immediate bulb failure.
Align contacts of bulb with terminals in
fixture base. Insert bulb until contacts
are firmly seated.
Reinstall:
Align tabs on light lens with slots in
fixture base. Rotate lens clockwise
until light lens locks into place.
Fold up both spring clips and insert
light fixture into opening. Once in
opening the spring clips will expand
and lock light fixture into place.
CAUTION:
Do not touch halogen lighting while
on. They can cause a burn. Do not
touch replacement bulbs. Oil in the
hands can cause a “hot-spot” to occur.
If the bulb is touched, allow it to cool
and clean the bulb with alcohol.
Incandescent Light
Incandescent lights in exterior compartments
and interior of the motorhome, come in
different styles or variations. The bulbs in
the 12 Volt incandescent light fixtures are
replaceable.
