    I’ve found that 3 – 4 hours will get you to float if discharged to the 12 range. I don’t use the autostart and manually start at around 12.2.

    Peter’s bus would go easily 24 hrs with just normal lights, fan, fridge, tv, etc with 5 year old Lifelines.

    Prevost Jacksonville and Ft Worth both said don’t worry about it. Just make sure you grease the joints more often. If not mistaken, Prevost won’t change the boots, just the components that are attached to the boots. Mine are gone too, like almost everyone with a coach of our vintage.

    I think the length of run on the gen can be programed longer.

    Thanks for the feedback. Am concerned that the ABS glue won’t give me time to make the last fitting tweeks. Will refrigerate the parts and glue before assembling. Sweatsville!

    I did not get to check the batteries. They are covered up in there on bay with a metal cover over them. Will do it next time though.

    Yes all interior lighting is led, the tv I watch most is LED, did not use any appliances other than frig. I set the frig on about 42 degrees if I know I am going to be on battery. The SAT dish is 12 volt and once tuned in I don’t assume it uses much voltage to stay tuned in.

    When my gen does auto start it will only run 4 hours and then shut off till batteries reach the voltage required to call for gen again. They usually charge back up 100 % during this 4 hour run.

    Mine had the third in the little compartment between the tag and the engine on the passenger side. I could not get to it to work on it without removing it every time. It was too hot there for Cruise Air. I think it was probably there because the original owner odered the coach with a mid door and much of the bay space was reconfigured.

    The only time I had to do it was when I changed out the house batteries and had to shut everything down.

    Must be a power interruption of some sort going on.

    Wow! Busy schedule. Great web page.

    I though Burke, VA was an unusual stop as its a densly populated suburb of DC. Middleburg, just a few miles a way, would have been no surprise.

    I hope you have a great season,

    Hi Tom,

    We took the grandkids 2 years ago and stayed at Fort Wilderness on the Disney property. Well worth the money for the camp ground. You can get packages if staying on the property where the prices for multi day and multipark tickets are a little cheaper!! For us it was a great trip and we will stay at Fort Wilderness when we go back.

    Jerry,

    The first place to start is to learn how your aux house system pneumatics are set up, plus go to the Prevost Car site and pull up the pneumatic diagram for your coach.

    Start with the easy, most accessible stuff using the most basic tests, listen and if nothing is heard move to soapy solution. You will likely be able to see and get at a lot of the system’s devices and fittings. The reason for the diagrams is because when you are through doing the obvious and accessible stuff from that point on you are probably going to find the origin of the air supply for the various systems and portions of the systems and then go to the next step which is likely to be airing up those individual areas and monitoring the pressure loss if any.

    It is time consuming, requires patience, and once you get the easy stuff fixed, each succeeding improvement is either harder to find or harder to fix but when you are done you will do a happy dance.

    Great post Bernie, finally someone that has driven both and can make an accurate comparison of the handling.
