ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS
The electrical system consists of a primary 12-volt DC
system and a 120-volt AC system. The 12-volt system
uses battery power similar to that used in automobiles.
The 120-volt system requires a source of 120-volt
power provided through the power supply cord or
optional generator.
These systems are connected through a power
converter. When connected to 120-volt power, the
converter transforms 120-volt AC input into 12-volt DC
power output and charges the storage battery(s) when
installed.
12-VOLT DC SYSTEM
The 12-volt system provides power for the following
components:
Electric Jacks
Interior Lighting
Exterior Lighting
Water Pump
Power Range Hood
Furnace Blower
Refrigerator
Water Heater Ignition
Stereo/CD/DVD Player
Fantastic Fan
Power Vent
Starting the Generator
Slideout Room
Accessories plugged into 12-volt outlet
BATTERY AND COMPARTMENT
Maintenance of your 12-volt battery(s) is essential for
carefree travel. Be sure to use a heavy-duty, minimum
95 amp/hr. (160 RC), RV/Marine deep cycle battery.
Certain models can accommodate two batteries.
Ensure that they are both the same size and type
battery. Check the battery(s) frequently with the
condition meter located on the monitor panel. Also
check the water level often. The use of a hydrometer
is required to test for the specific gravity of the battery
acid. Hydrometers are available through an auto parts
store.
NOTE: The 12-volt battery(s) is not supplied with the
camper by the manufacturer.
BATTERY TERMINOLOGY
Deep Cycle Batteries
The term “deep cycle” refers to a battery that has the
capability of deeply discharging hundreds of times.
How it differs from an automotive starting battery is
that the automotive battery is manufactured to
specifically provide a quick burst of energy thousands
of times while only being able to deeply discharge less
than 50 cycles during its lifetime. A cycle refers to one
battery discharge and recharge.
Battery Ratings and Specifications
Marine/RV deep cycle batteries have rating
specifications which include cold cranking amps
(CCA), marine cranking amps (MCA), reserve capacity
(RC) and ampere hours (Ah). RC and approximate Ah
ratings may not be listed on the battery decal.
However, they should be available through your local
battery distributor.
Cold Cranking Amps (CCA)
The amount of current (amps) a battery at 0
°
F
(-17.8
°
C) can deliver for 30 seconds and maintain at
least 1.2 volts per cell (7.2 volts for a 12-volt battery).
Marine Cranking Amps (MCA)
The amount of discharge current a battery tested at
32
°
F (0
°
C) can deliver for 30 seconds and maintain at
least 1.2 volts per cell (7.2 volts on a 12-volt battery).
Reserve Capacity (RC)
The amount of time a battery can deliver 25 amps at
80
°
F (26.7
°
C) without falling below 1.75 volts per cell
(10.5 volts on a 12-volt battery). An approximate Ah
rating can be attained by multiplying the battery’s RC
rating by 0.6. Example 180 RC x 0.6 = 108 Ah.
Ampere hours (Ah)
Tested at 80
°
F (26.7
°
C). It is the amount of current (in
amps) a battery can deliver, multiplied by the amount
of hours, without falling below 1.75 volts per cell (10.5
volts on a 12-volt battery). Most marine/RV deep cycle
batteries are rated on a 20-hour discharge rate.
Example: a 100 Ah battery can deliver 5 amps for 20
hours (amps x hours = Ah). The Ah rating is important
when determining the type and amount of battery(s)
required to meet your specific component needs.
BATTERY INFORMATION
The battery(s) must be securely strapped in the
compartment at all times.
The battery(s) is charged by the truck’s charging
system while the truck is running or when connected
to 120-volt power through the power converter. If
equipped, the on-board generator charges the battery
while running through the power converter.
