Suggestions on a battery monitor for an '05 PW Plateau?
I keep hopping from one full hookup site to another but I don't think it's necessary. I've been so worried about draining my battery too low because I have the all in one monitor that came standard on my RV, the 1/3, 2/3, full type which includes all the tanks too.
I suspect I have a group 49 90ah AGM battery (per Davidd's comment from another post). I don't know because it's under the passenger seat and I haven't looked forward to pulling the seat. I'm learning but I didn't know anything about RVs, 12v systems and batteries before I bought this RV.
I seem to prefer driving 100-250 miles, wander around for a day or two and move on. I don't have a generator, originally thought I'd buy one but now think I may be able to get by with a solar panel but I don't know because I don't feel my existing monitor is accurate enough to make that decision.
I realize it may not be the best RV for off grid but it's the one I have and I've decided to stick with it and make it work. It doesn't look like I can go to a higher ah battery without moving it somewhere else, not willing to do that at this time.
