yea I think so.

I need to get a propane tank for it so I can test the heater. Really need to dig into it with a multimeter and see what is going on with it all.

I do what I can. I have to build a stable base for the camper today after work, once I get that done I am going to dive into figuring it out. Goal is to get everything as low power as possible so I can use a smaller solar panel with a large deep cycle and sustain base functions. Jen and I like to rough it in terms of technology so we really only need basic power.

Completely agree. Struggling to see the light in said tunnel. AT LEAST The numbers are coming closer together on the other side. Maybe the slogan will be "anyone but Hillary"

exactly. I will be there, Jen and I love the road. now that I have a camper we can putt around without issues and really not spend much.

Topic has been split Alright, So Back to the camper. I am happy to report and EGT's with the camper on were only ~50*f more than without at the same speed same stretch of road. Can't complain about that. I need to do some work on it. It has a 120v input and a 12v --> 120v inverter that I am going to upgrade. I need to figure out a good way to mount a group 31 deep cycle battery. I am assuming I can use the trailer wiring to charge the battery on the road then wire in a solar panel also? Convert the interior lights to LED's The bulbs in the ceiling look like standard 12v 7506 bulbs. Is that typical to have the interior lights be 12v?

Yea I will give it a try...

He is still missing the AC noise from the alternator. The truck didn't have the issue when it left the factory, something on the truck is broken....fix the broken part.

I dunno if I have asked this before or not, but do you have anything to read live data from the ECM? ( quadziila, edge attitude, scan gauge, etc)

We need to start a new thread to keep track of this, Who brings what etc etc etc.

%99.99 of the time is is due to a bad alternator. have you gone through this article?

:buttrock:

We haven't heard anything from you about your switch. Did you want me to test it out for you? The next batch of switches has been made. we are waiting for the harness to be made. we are hoping get those soon! please check the store for updates.

the Alternator on my BMW has a air pickup in the bumper.

working to try and figure that out, but it isn't looking promising.

This Thread is to Cover the Mopar1973Man Camping Meet and Greet for the Full Eclipse Aug 18th Thru the 21st 2017. We will be camping out near Michaels place in a place called Catfish Junction. http://www.catfishjunctionrvpark.com/ Bring your truck, family, friends, for a relaxed good time.

carry a multimeter with you and jump out and measure next time you get the spike.

have you jumped out of the truck with a multimeter and read voltage on the battery posts when the dash flips out?

had this exact issue when my ground cables on the battery were trashed. How are your cables and ends looking?

No real rush. I can use straps to the frame if need be.

alright thanks buddy.

let me know how much you want.

Have you run through this yet?

I figure that the straps have a #4k rating, if you were to put 4k on the i-hooks on the camper itself they would rip out. https://www.ratchetstraps.com/2-ratchet-strap-wire-hooks-5000

I see all sorts of #4000 straps. can't imagine them breaking. I read all over that you want a rubber mat in the bed haha. I wish people on the internet would just agree on something, that would make my life easier. Jag, any pictures?
