I did not know it at the time, but TMobile is having a special promotion that allowed me to get the Home Internet service at no cost and no added obligation but it also included a $10/month fee discount so my unlimited service is only costing me $40/month.
Thus far, the service here in Vegas has been excellent!

New on the aviation front… I just upgraded to Captain on the B717!
Sad to say that I’ve never flown a tailwheel aircraft though…and don’t get to do aerobatics very often in the airliners.

Don’t confuse pass through power, the normal inverter setup, with an inverter by-pass. With a by-pass, you take the input power and send it direct to the power sources by-passing the inverter. Many of the early coaches didn’t have a by-pass switch.

They appear to be standard lead/acid batteries. Duracell Golf Cart EGC2?
Yes, I only see One inverter. Is it recommended to have Two? Not sure where I would have space to mount a second.
I will try and post some photos.

Thanks

Like Don & Robert said 50 psi mine never deflates, replace the check valve at regulator and between regulator and engine if you have no leaks it should stay tight.

When it works, it is great. But, big but, there are so many things that can go wrong with the system, unless you don’t mind standing on a ladder and cranking the thing back up, you will live in fear every time you deploy it.
I have one, it worked a few times, got stuck out once and I quit using it. If you are going to use it be sure to do the maintenance detailed in many prior posts – lube struts, replace dedicated batteries in the little box in bay 3. It even has its own little air compressor to drain periodically.

Assuming the chassis batteries are the same voltages they are a little high. I believe the Prevost service manual calls for about 27.7.
I am speculating on this but I think the reason might be is because as temps go up, charging voltages should go down, and since the chassis batteries in some coaches pick up some heat from the engine a lower voltage is preferred.
It might be because an H3 protects the chassis batteries a little from the heat because of their placement.
