Some tips for folks unfamiliar with lead acid battery maintenance.
Maintaining and Testing my RV Batteries
http://www.loveyourrv.com/maintaining-and-testing-my-rv-batteries/
[quote quote=11193]Thank You Ray for your info on maintaining and too a different choice of batteries. [/quote]
You’re welcome, I usually get back as good as I give. It’s amazing the new things I learn as other RVers share the knowledge back after I post an article.
Good video Ray. Check out the battery oil additive that will extend the life and performance of your batteries. I am not prone to using additives in my vehicles, but this was suggested to me when I bought 2 new Trojan batteries for the RV in June 2003. Ya that date is correct, 12 years ago and I am still using them. I keep them charged and watered properly as you showed. The batteries are due to be replaced but are still working and showing approximately 80% of normal. This is one additive I would highly recommend. I use it in my dual truck batteries as well and they are 4 years old and as good as the day I bought them. http://www.thermoil.com/
Never knew such a thing existed. That was from RVHH member Ray Whyte – http://rvhappyhour.com/members/iokuok2/
He has a very good free RVing ebook if you didn’t know. Lots of good tips – http://www.loveyourrv.com/new-free-rv-ebook-called-roughing-smoothly/
Great timing. My son needed to check out our lead acid battery. He had never worked with any and watched your video and knew what he needed to do. Thanks :Cool:
Thanks Ray, you did exactly as my Dad taught me. Which confirms he was right, and maybe this will help others know you are right. :yahoo: I have seen some crazy people out there do well stupid things. :Silly:
