    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West CA Route 1 camping? SF camping?

    I think there is camping but I don't know about truck or RV spots at: Candlestick Point SRA in San Francisco. https://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=519 If they have camp sites other than walk in it would be the best around SF. There is an RV park in Pacifica, which is about 10 minutes south of...

    I should start another thread but i'm too lazy so I thought I'd say this here. In the RV industry it is almost unheard of that a dealer/mfg will make an appointment with you for a warranty claim and do the repair while you wait. I say this because we also have a 2017 class C . * I bought it...

    Took the camper into ATC this morning. They worked on it all morning. I think they did find a problem somewhere and ran a new wire. They also installed a Renogy controller (its a Renogy solar panel) & a new battery. So far so good. I will monitor the voltage to see what happens...

    Actually an ATC employee did install the battery I supplied.....As for the "lot of the wiring" , there are two pairs of wires, all fused which go from the battery terminals to two 12v 'ports' . With these two pairs of wires disconnected, the solar controller is still not regulating the...

    Just spoke with Marty at ATC. They are going to check all the wiring and install a Renogy controller. I'm lucky I'm only a little over an hour drive (in no traffic) to their shop. just for my imagination, I checked to see if the mounting screws on the controller were grounded and they were...

    battery read 13.6 disconnected from the solar controller. (I'm looking at my notes now so I'm pretty sure) these were the voltage reading with the ground wire disconnected from to the battery from the solar controller. These readings were taken at 10:40 AM 14.20 v solar from panel...

    Rando: I have disconnected the ground from the panel to the controller and the 'solar indicator light' on the controller has gone off, so I don't think that the ground wire is the problem. (but what do I know). the controller is still hooked up to the battery and the voltage on the controller...

    Thanks for your reply. I believe there are two wires from the panel to the controller. On the roof the solar panel plugs into a two pin connector into the roof. I have measured the voltage at this point and it is the same as going into the controller. A pair of wires come out of the wall and...

    I have a solar question: I have an ATC installed 160w solar panel. My voltage out of the battery is in the 15-17 v range when not under draw. I have run my ARB frig for 3 days and the voltage meter reads 16.1 volts.....way high for a 12v AGM battery, I think. input to the controller is...
