I found that I have the progressive dynamics 4500 and I found the product manual. It does not reference any switch for AGM batteries. Thanks for the explanations and help.

Here are pics under my bed.  I see the inverter and subwoofer, or at least I think that is a subwoofer.  I don't see anything else.

Also, any recommendations on AGM brands?

Does anyone know where the converter is on my 2351 PC?  I looked under the bed, and I see the inverter, but I don't see anything else in there.  Thanks for the responses.

I apologize if this subject has already been covered. If so, can you point me to that thread?  I have read several threads and am confused.

I have a 2020 2351. My house batteries are bad already after just over a year. They were really low on water.   I do keep it plugged in a lot for various reasons because I use it every 2-4 weeks. What can I do to keep from replacing batteries every year?  Would switching to AGM be enough?

Thanks,

Jeff

I just setup the Wyze 1080p camera in my cabin.  I will be adding another one inside, looking out a window.  They are a cheap alternative to a real security system.

Mine came with the TRIK-L-START.  It is behind the washer fluid reservoir.

I found this pic in an article on skid rollers but it had no info or link to the maker.

Good find 2Lucky.  So much for me patenting it and making millions.   :'(

I tracked it down.  RoadMaster makes this Roller Ball Mount in 4, 6, 8, and 10 inch drop hitches. (https://www.roadmasterinc.com/products/accessories/hitch/roller.html)   

etrailer.com has them.  https://www.etrailer.com/dept-pg-Accessories_and_Parts-pt-Roller_Ball_Mount.aspx

Hi...  I've been on the forum for a while.  Learning a lot.  A few months ago we finally purchased our dream RV.  It's a 2020 2552.  We bought it used with about 3000 miles on it.  It has the V10.  It also has 2 air conditioners, Liquid Springs, a compressor fridge, 50 Amp service, 4 lithium batteries, Truma Aqua go Plus (hot water), among other extras.

Previous owner says this was the first PC to get the compressor fridge and lithium battery setup.  It's now an option.  The lithium battery setup is the "Battle Born Bundle". It's a $3600 option (after the 20% discount).

We picked it up from the previous owner's place.  It was too far out to get an RV inspector out there.  Everything appeared to work so we drove it home.  It was a two day drive home.  It rode well. We stayed at a Cracker Barrel overnight.  About a week after we got it home, as I'm checking everything out in detail, I find that I can't get hot water.  My guess is I'm doing something wrong.  Also the slide worked perfectly, until it wouldn't come in.  Luckily it was parked at my home so I didn't panic.  I called a mobile RV tech who came out and confirmed that the motors were working.  He was able to disengage stuff and push it in.  It's now being held in place with a couple of 2x4s inside the coach.  We have an appointment to drive up to the factory (another  2 day drive) in April.  Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, we love our new castle on wheels.  I just wanted to share our experience and say hello.

I also have a problem with the water heater.  Can't get it working on gas or electric.  I haven't had time to call PC yet, but will eventually.  Others have mentioned there are issues with the control board, so that might be it.  Let us know what you find out. 

Jeff

That's a good plan.  My only question is will those wheels hold up with that much pressure put on it. 

Looks like you are putting a wheelie bar on the back of your PC.   :-D

Sorry for the photoshopped image, but this is my idea of a solution.  Weld a bracket and roller in front of the hitch.  You could probably find a roller that doesn't drop down much lower than the ball nut.  Amazon has several weld on rollers.

Maybe the previous owner is still wondering where his favorite magnet disappeared to. ;)

Congrats Ron on your new ride!  That is top of the line stuff there.  I don’t know anything about the water heater system.  Sorry I can’t help there.  My slide is different as well.  Did you try to talk through troubleshooting over the phone with PC?  Perhaps it could save you a trip. 

Love that color too!!  PCers are the sharpest on the road! 

Ron S

I agree, that color is very cool.

Jeff
