2018 RP178
I've always suspected our used RP used power too quickly. It wasn't until I installed a Lithium battery and charger, Renogy meters, etc., that I could see what was going on. I'm drawing .35 amps on #4 DC circuit (Bath Lights, Stereo, Fan). That's about 3.5 amps a day. 5 Days = 17.5 amps, 10 days = 25 amps. Not funnily when your pushing miles cross country and staying at truck stops or your new car breaks down and your stuck in a Car dealership storage lot for 6 weeks, etc. lit we were. We called that our test run. IS THIS A KNOWN PROBLEM? Things I tried: Stereo was already disconnected. We don't use. Bath Light was switched out to a plain on/off LED. (No Change). I can try unhooking the fan... but I don't see how that could be the problem. I actually have trouble shot a bunch of other problem in the major Lithium power conversion and now have a very respectable system or so I told by my buddies... but this #4 DC Circuit current drain has me baffled. ![]() ![]() ![]() IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE ON THAT CIRCUIT I'M NOT AWARE OF...??? Lets say I've gotten to know my R-pod very well.
