supply enough power. Never try to use batteries until they are completely
dead, or when the lights "dim out." Each time the batteries are used at half
charge, the ability to recharge up to full capacity is diminished. The damage
that occurs is cumulative and will eventually render a battery useless.
If you are in a habit of starting the engine regularly, remember that the
alternator output is lower at an idle, and that even at a fast idle it may take as
much as an hour to replace what it took to start up the engine. Also, realize
that running the engine for a short time may increase moisture contamination
in the fuel and oil. It is better to run the engine less often and run it longer, for
perhaps an hour. The good news is this can be included in your battery
recharge schedule.
Solar panels can greatly increase the time you can operate between battery
charges.
Remember that different motorhomes have different equipment and that
everyone has different habits and expectations. The above general guidelines
should provide a useful starting point for building your own schedule and regi-
men for extended stays where power and water are not available. You too can
become less dependent on hook-ups.
• Make sure to turn all
appliances on propane.
• The battery cut off switch
will need to be left on.
• Purchase extra solar
panels, if desired.
• Understand the inverter
operations.
• One continuous duty
solenoid is a .7 Amp draw,
two solenoids will
be a 1.4 Amp draw.
• A 13" TV has a 1.7 Amp
draw.
• Rope lights (10 ft) are a
1.3 Amp draw.
• The porch light is a 2.0
Amp draw.
• One fluorescent dual bulb
light is a 0.9 Amp draw.
