Thanks Guys my thoughts also😀

George I totally agree with you I have my Tire tracker from AZ sense 2012 on our Foretravel when I got the Royale I had to get 2 more sensors for the tag but my tow car also has sensors, Big thing don’t over tighten sensors. I would not be without my TPS. My dad had 2 buses in his day and carried the billy club under the seat, Because that’s all they had. He would of had a TPS system if they had one.

Hey Jerry looking at drawing you have 6 House batteries and 2 chassis?? looks complicated they are all tied together?Is that a 24v coach?
-
Hey Jerry did you wire them same as your photo? My 97 Royale came with 5 8D batteries new and some where down the road it ended up with 4 Lifeline 8D batteries 255 amp hour total 1020 amp hours. Not knowing any better I put in 4 LiTime 280 amp hour batteries 1120 amp hours. Now I know 3 of those batteries would have plenty for my coach. Went through a lot of scratching my head, Had it wired just like the AGM’s, Wired in parallel pulling positive off 1 end and ground off other end, batteries were discharging all over the place, Rewired with bus bars way better, But 3 Li batteries would have been plenty 2 would have worked.

I’ve never Sean Smart man post before?

I have done some polishing on my bus,I bought some polishing wheels from Renegade Products they have a good selection on polishing wheels and polish, and good support,I think my old bus looks pretty good for a 97, Not perfect but pretty darn good
-
I put 4th battery back in back to 1120 amp hours, I’m going to let smart batteries be smart.
-
That was my thought,But those batteries have so much capacity,Most of the time only 2 or 3 batteries are being used the other is full and in standby, And it varies which battery or batteries are in standby

Clint can you re post that post about the DN50 from the POG group??
-
If my DN 50 failed couldn’t you fix it, It also has a remote regulator so no regulator in my 12v DN50
-
I don’t use Facebook either.
-
I see that is similar to mine, Did you say you just have the DN50 24v and not another? Converters are all different.
-
The Royale uses the DN50 12v to charge the House batteries driving the DN50 stay’s around 14.1 to 14,2 volts even after driving for hours, some others on the forum do the same. I was told that most regular motor homes like my Foretravel or Manaco’s have 1 alternator that charges both sets of batteries House and Chassis batteries so it can’t charge Lithium’s and Lead acid at the same time so you need a DC to DC charger to charge just the Lithium’s from the Lead Acid batteries. Where most of our buses at least Royale’s the House and Chassis batteries are totally separate they have 2 alternators so the 2 set’s of batteries charge differently. Everything I’ve read the Lithium need to charge at a little higher voltage if they are 12v they need to charge at 14.2v to 14.6v
