I do not lube our pins. But I did upgrade to the newer red handled pins, ththey are mmuch easier to use.

Thank you!

Thanks Mike,

I will check it out

My primary is a 30 micron, my secondary is a 10 micron.

Randy,

I did not receive your PM. Not sure why. Could be you don’t have enough posts to qualify for that benefit yet. Loc gave some good suggestions. If you still want to try and are comfortable with it, post up your phone number and I’ll give you a call. Thanks.

[Michael]

Excellent sugestions. Dry Graphite lube is very effective.

We use the previous model of this in our coach.

We are very happy with it. There are other options as you shall see.

I don’t use it often, only when the chassis batteries are low, which is rarely. Our coach just sat from December 2nd to Wednesday of last week (over four months) in an unheated building in NE Wisconsin; mostly below 32*F, some sub-zero. When I flipped the 12 and 24 volt chassis battery master cutoffs to ON, there was plenty of power in the batteries to start the big Detroit.

I have the charger for (1) when I screw up and leave something on (like lights), (2) if the batteries start to get old and weak, or (3) something happens to the batteries. If your batteries seem to discharge by themselves quickly, you might have something wired to the “hot all the time bus” incorrectly or your batteries are on their last legs.

Thank you Larry!

Make sure your inverter charger, shore power setting is set below 30amps I would set it at 15amps no electric heaters on, water heaters-aqua hot electric side

[Michael]

Try plugging your adaptor in by it’s self. The adaptor connects the two hot legs together. That is more than likely what causes the GFI to trip

[Michael]

I frequently use a 50 to 30 Amp adaptor then plug into a 15 or 20 Amp plug. Having said that, I have NEVER been able to plug into a GFI circuit it always trips.

I recently purchased a 50 to two 30 Amp Y adaptor. It had a large label on it stating it will not work if plugged into an outlet with a GFI.

A lot of marinas are upgrading to GFI’s and most boats can not plug into them. There’s a storm a brewing on the horizon with local electrical codes requiring any changes or upgrades to systems to change to GFI’s. They are to sensitive and will not accept adaptors.

No load when turning on the breaker. 120 volts at the 30 amp GFI outlet. I have frequently plugged the rig into a standard 30 amp outlet with no problem. I am wondering if the engineering behind a 30 amp GFCI breaker reacts differently with our 50 amp systems. Other Prevost owners have reported similar failures.

Pulled into to top off. 123 gallons for $655.06 but after the TSD discount “only” $584.50.

Well worth it! The added convenience is just a side benefit!

[Michael]

Thank you.
