Our coach was built with Lithium Ion battery technology. We have three Li house batteries as we have a four slide coach, it’s my understanding that 2 and 3 slide coaches will have 2 Li house batteries.
When we lost power at my storage facility, the genny kicked on after about 13-14 hours. I’m not sure exactly as I was at home and I was checking my phone during the night so I could see the battery level and if the genny was on.
Just the fridge, small basement fridge, chargers, etc. were on while in storage (we have four 3,500 watt inverters).
By the time I got to the storage facility the next morning, the genny was running charging everything back up.
Our genny is set to come on when the batteries reach about 30%.
Safe travels,

nice to have choices! we have a toter/5th wheel freightlinner W 12 ft national box also. Bus just can’t pull steam engine. Wheel base is killer. Life is a adventure!

Really like that rear coach design Gordon, looks great!

On our Marathon, Jimmy reprogrammed the tech link system dash mounted buttons for black water and grey water to dump after pressing button continuously for 5 seconds. In other words, I now have the James Bond feature to dump while going down the road or while staying inside the coach.

Jim,
I’m lost why you would let it change over by itself, I don’t know of any system that would do it by itself.
Only thing I can think of is start (plugged in) with the toe kick heaters alone and go to heat pumps and see what happens.
BA had a 2000, maybe he can shead light on this.
Start each zone separately and see what you get.
Also what 2 zones are on the inverters?

I was afraid of that … like plumbing a race car. At least that’s a start.

It’s been corrected.

Mike, I cannot answer your question about alternate suppliers.
The fan clutches on my 97 and 06 failed, and I purchased replacements from Prevost at what I consider a great expense. If I were to shop for a replacement I would attempt to find out the manufacturer and the model number and then speak to the manufacturer to find if it can be bought through their distribution chain or if it proprietary with Prevost. I seriously doubt the fan clutches used are exclusive to Prevost.
But there is more than getting just any clutch. It has to mate up with the holes or bolts used for mounting. It has to have the proper pulley for the type of belt used to drive it. It has to be robust enough to handle the load. It is definitely going to have to be capable of responding to DDEC and accept the DDEC electrical signals.
I have no idea how you would evaluate a fan clutch not sold by Prevost as being acceptable for the application.

No rubber on the Meritor ADB 1560 brakes as per picture, exposed steel pins grease or ainti seize dirt will adhere to it??

Looks great Truk. You have to like the mileage and the fill-ups a lot better. It probably pulls the Georgia hills better as well. I’ll be there with you and the GOATS. Is that an upgrade from the sheep?

First item to check …all the connections inside the generator mounted black control box.
Push in connectors and crimped wire connections have a history on generators due to continuous vibration.

I don’t know which is worse. chasing air leaks or now chasing moles and voles from ruining my garden. I’m ready to hire some minions to take care of both if I could just shake a few pennies from Tom’s pockets.

Bob’s number will not work for a motor home conversion chassis, especially on pneumatic or electrical diagrams. Big differences.
