It has 2 settings 30amp or 60 amp

I don’t need to charge to 100% just want to charge to correct voltage, I have voltage set at 14.5v, The new DC to DC charger from the DN50 charges at 14.4 +or- 2 volts and it is a smart charger for LifePO4 batteries so driving it should be charged to correct volts and SOC

this lithium change has some strange events

I put 6-7K miles a year, that’s enough for someone that still has a JOB.

The link above provided by Clint is the one I referred to.
The Prevost reports show considerable structural integrity. A chassis that flexes tends to have poor handling. Not all cases is flex bad however. A plane wing is designed to flex so structural integrity is based on function and need.

It doesn’t have to be a very good router, you are only trying to cover a 7′ x 8′ x 45′ area.

George! You need to update your picture of your New Rig.

sure, but is it by design?
There’s a somewhat famous pic of a 3-slide Prevost at the Tampa RV show with the front driver tire elevated on a ramp – with all three slides out. I’m not a structural engineer but if that level of stiffness was a design goal, then how do they also design to accommodate flex?
I guess it’s possible.

I hope we can all agree that everything flexes. Some more than others.

Jon, I think this is it: https://www.altoonabustest.psu.edu/bus-list.aspx
How timely this is, recently on another bus forum the topic of body flex was being discussed and a commenter posted this in response to a Newell owner saying his Newell flexed more than his prior bird (i.e., Wanderlodge).

“out of curiosity do you know why Newell flex more than birds. Is it a design flaw or is it designed like that purposely???? Example, Prevost flex more but it’s do to their design. Wondering if Newell is using their strategy. Thanks.”
—–My question is, does Prevost design for flex?

Will be great way for wife to learn Prevost and meet some incredible people

I really don’t get most of this. Every 10 years or so I have to replace my AGM’s. Sometimes I have to run my generator. No problems, no concerns in cold weather, no huge bucks or big changes. Weight savings in a 40000# coach? Seriously? Just don’t get it!

Starlink Update:
I just returned from a bus Rally in Cottonwood AZ, it was an 1100 mile trip with zero issues. It is really amazing to have wifi all the time while traveling.

Art, how do you typically use your Bus? This may help in getting you a better answer.

From what i’m understanding is the DN50 will over charge the LifePO 4 batteries, Book says at 15v the batteries will shut off, Is there a way to stop charging the DN50 at 14.5v, The Bosch relay connects pos on DN50 to Pos on regulator when Ignition is on, If that connection is broken will DN50 stop charging Safely without hurting DN50? if it was set to charge at 14.4 then at 14.4v switch a switch on dash to shut off charging??
