Why not put a clamp on amp meter on t he inverter cables and measure the real draw. This will tell you the real current draw.

I love what you did with it to make it a bus barn with a tiny home. Barns ring a bell with me because I used to live in one for almost 25 years. I found the barn abandoned in a timber tract, bought it for $50 and had it dismantled, moved to my location, put back up on a new foundation and then spent 18 months to finish it, with me doing most of the carpentry and electrical work. The barn is 38×60 feet and it is about 200 years old, now.
Cheers,
Ronald

I placed my order today with Tom, for the new Pressure Pro Pulse!
I couldn’t tell you how many times I have stopped, just to check tires and temps. Hopefully, I won’t have to stop for that anymore, unless I just want to.

Oh Jimmy … trust me … I’ve been to Jeff’s enough to know that he has lots going on all the time and when I call last Thursday in the late afternoon knew the shop was probably full of coaches he and the Eagle Scouts were trying to get out before Memorial Day weekend. I’m just excited I could work myself out of the problem on my own for once!
Its interesting that Jon uses one approach to raising then supporting his coach and Tom has another.
What really surprised me last Thursday was that after the engine running 25 or 30 minutes (possibly more) that the chassis went up another 1/4″. Why didn’t it go up much earlier? What was going on with the air system?

I bought mine used and I can honestly say that I’ve had 0 problems with the coach. I know that I upgraded a lot of the electronics but the coach has never been back to the factory for issues. Just make sure if buying a used coach that you do a complete PDI. Also when they do the PDI that you are ther with them. I bought my coach from California Coach and would buy from them again in a heart beat. My good friend has his 2008 Millennium on there for sale and its in PRIME condition with a detail record of everything on the coach. His coach has all the upgrades that you would get in a new bus (2017)
Just my $ 2

They vary. I have had three different types depending on the wheel. Two were 90 degree and one was 45 degree. The lengths I think were different also. I think the reason is two coaches had aluminum inner wheels on the drive and one had steel inner wheels. I never considered looking at the tag and steer to see how they were set up.
One wheel had the valve stem mounted on a 45 degree surface and the other two were on a surface parallel to the ground. I think.

Well darn-it… tried to sign up with my credit card and the app will not let me continue. After the first failure a year ago, I just never tried it again.
I have a call into Alicia to see if I can sign up with her. The app still requires that you put in checking acct. info which I do not want to do.
Debbie said the app has not been updated yet.Maybe tomorrow.

From a Royale’s wiring you would disconnect shore power, set investors to off and for good measure flip the 12v disconnect switch. This gives me a “dead” bus, with exception of the chassis side. Then reverse the steps to restore power.
Oh, and make sure the auto-gen is disengaged.

confirmed, we are full timers in the DC area. No thunder snow today. I was out most of the day with the snow shovel.
The bus is doing very well . We did get a significant amount on the roof. First thing this morning I had to remove it.other than being tired, we are doing quite well.

I have to agree with Jon…our bus is stored inside, right next to our Lobster boat…wouldn’t own it if we didn’t have inside heated storage with 50 amp service.
