    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Adding a Second Battery

    I added a second battery that was as close to identical as the og 24 AGM as I could find in parallel. Turned everything on and didn’t blow myself up (I’m scared of electricity) which was great. I’ve been watching the voltage meter the past 10min. Started at 12.88 and has trickled down to 12.84...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 2x 6v > 2x 12v?

    I’m about to add a second 12v battery but I’ve seen a few indicate that 2x 6v batteries is a better set up. Could someone explain why this would be better to an electrical noob?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Adding a Second Battery

    Yeah solar is definitely in the plan. I guess my only issue with solar that isn’t mounted permanently is the truck is still a daily driver and a lot of daylight hours will be spent with it driving. So to really get the value of solar id have to mount it permanently.

    Thanks Dean, I think I’m going to add the shunt and second battery. There is no fridge in my camper so there’s no draw from one.

    So the display on the deep sea is not a reliable way to determine battery level?

    Someone on a Facebook group mentioned the duct work as well. I removed the small bit of duct by the vent. I have not seen the threads though, I’ll try to find them.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Adding a Second Battery

    Seems simple enough. The battery is new, the camper is only a few months old and battery hasn’t been used a ton. I’m just looking to extend usage time and not be left with no power in the boondocks. Can I get away with a different brand with same specs?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Adding a Second Battery

    Hey all, First night using the heater in my Hawk and I think the power got low. It only dropped below 12 very momentarily but it seems the low power may be the reason my heat kept shutting off in the night. I can’t do the lithium battery swap right now but I think I can pull a second AGM. I’m...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Want to Go Modular- Interior

    So I have my new Hawk shell and starting to decide what route to go with building it out more. I’m kind of deciding I want to go modular since the times I use it solo will mostly be for hunting and pretty simple travel whereas with my fiancé it will be a bit more glamorous. My goals are to add...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New Hawk Quirks

    Just got off the phone with them and it’s covered under warranty as expected. They will replace the door and entire board. Issue is distance and scheduling all of this. Pretty flexible given the circumstances. In the meantime I got the ok to do a short term fix to keep using it. I’m thinking I...

    Brand new camper. Just left a message with their service department. Issue is the dealers are far from me and hunting season is right around the corner which I got specifically for.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New Hawk Quirks

    Just picked up a new Hawk for my ‘19 Tundra. Absolutely love it and had a few good night in it in NH and on the beach already. However it does have a few quirks that I’m honestly a little surprised about given the price point and spartan reputation. First is the door latch will rotate and...
