Chuck… I secure a 24 ounce plastic sports drink bottle around the tube to collect any droplets. May sure it is not air tight. I also stuff a single paper towel in the bottle. My tow vehicle and garage floor stay clean. Secure with a zip tie after drilling a through and though hole near the top of the bottle. Have never needed to empty it.

ive been communicating with Jett Kuntz, who happens to live in Parker CO. He alluded to sane things about discounts. But wanted to talk with me about a special PC discount after the first of year, for Q1 as he put it.

MemberNovember 10, 2021 at 7:52 am in reply to: Clean sheet design: inverters, batteries, etc.If you have 24 volt invertors, do not use 2 12 volt batteries in series to get 24 volts, unless you use a bms that will manage all the batteries. Use 24 volt batteries.

If your plumbing is pretty you need to show it proudly, but if the converter is ashamed of it, they tend to hide it.
FWIW, to get this discussion back on track, Centramatics are well supported by the company. When I got my coach I was doing some work on my coach and I had the wheels and balancers off the coach. I realized I could hear the balancing media within the Centramatic on all balancers except one.
I know the media has to flow freely or the balancer will not work so I contacted Centramatics who confirmed Liberty was buying the balancers and installing them as original equipment. Unfortunately they were 6 years old and this out of warranty. However the man I spoke to acknowledged “clumping” was not acceptable, should not have happened, and he sent a replacement at no charge.
They are to be commended.

Could it be that with things on in the coach, A/C, water heaters any other current draw are on when the inverters kick in and the charge rates on them for the house batteries are set at something like 30 amps each, that you are drawing too much amperage from your power sources.
Are the house batteries up to charge.

As a regular poster for many years, some things never change.
As a thread becomes solved, lacks interest, something else will come along. That’s just the nature of the beast.
Most of the regular posters have been involved for many years, learning new things every time they come to this forum.
No one has ever been disappointed with opinions on this site.
Respect for many members has increased membership which continues today. Having detailed responses, to problems, issues, fixes, parts source, events has made PC one of the most respected bus sites on the net.
If changes happen to the ease of site movement, posting, and opinions right out of the gate…you will be unable to get back what you have.
FWIW….AL

Thanks Jeff.! I am working thru rehab of my level system. Mine is all 24V (98 XlE) I have found 4 of the 5 coils bad. Have verfied the inner workings of the stack by using a good coil. 24 volts to all. Hard to believe 4 bad at one time? Has there been a corrosion problem with the coils? I have noticed a rust coating inside the bore of the coils(bad) also on the base of the coils there is a slight white on flat bottom of coils.. Didn’t mean to hop on thread but sounds like we are trouble shooting same thing!!! Bob

Well this is always a fun topic. Lots of threads here and lots a strong opinions on both sides. It’s almost like asking which converter is better Marathon or Liberty. Most with Bus air say they can’t or won’t live without out and those that don’t have it say they don’t need or want it.
Having or not having bus air was not a key factor for us in deciding what bus we purchased. Other things like layout, bunks and decor is what drove our decision.
We purchased our 2007 Marathon in 2012. It has 4 roof airs. In over 8 years and well over 100,000 miles, I can count on one hand the times we have needed 3 roof tops to keep us comfortable. Most of the time my wife is complaining it’s too cold with just 2 on in addition to prevost dash air.
Hope that helps.
