Love your videos, the bloopers are just bonus material 🤣

National RV Training Academy, This made me laugh so hard, thanks for sharing!

thanks Todd! good info as always.

I'm waiting for the surge protector that monitors her voltage

Hi Todd. Great content as always. Although I agree that a certain amount of Lithium Batteries in newer rigs makes sense, I have a few specific constraints to deal with before really considering. This may be useful to others here in a similar situation near larger cities.. 1) I am in a winter climate (Ottawa, Ontario Canada). Currently with 1 lead acid battery I simply remove it and put it on a trickle charger for the winter in my heated and insulated 2 car garage. 2) I store my RV at a private storage outdoor facility with no access to electrical service whatsoever. There is no place to even park the RV near my home - even temporarily - no parking on street and lot sizes are barely 35 ft wide including the driveway. 3) We sometimes, not so much this year, get substantial amounts of snow that would cover up any solar panels. 4) My new Brinkley Z2900 comes with one 370 watts solar panel, is inverter prepped. Let's say I buy 2 - 200 Amp hr Lithium batteries. What do I do with them in the winter time? Leave them in the RV? Won't they get damaged at -30 F without electricity to keep them warm. Do I bring them home? Do trickle chargers even exist for lithium. Thanks. Always look forward to your Tuesday content. Richard PS I have visited Texas twice but moving is not an option. Yet! :)

Todd, how about the slipper spring setups? Surely they are better than the leaf spring setup.

Thoughts on torsion suspension setups ?

Hey Todd, Thanks again as always for the great content. I love these tech tips. I do have a question though. You mentioned changing from Leaf spring to independent suspension for the ride quality as an upgrade and I hear that a lot. There are also those who recommend upgrading just shackles, but do you any upgrade or maintenance tips for Torsion axles? I never anyone talk about them, is that because they are a better system then leaf springs or is just because there are less issues? Thanks Again.

Take a look at auto flex

Todd great videos you are the best. Question? I see you recommend a "Soft Start" as an important upgrade. What do you think about the portable "Soft Starts" that you plug into the rv parks pedestal? I rather have a portable that will work for both A/C or anything else that has a high draw when turned on. Any big difference between hardwired to A/C vs plug in one?

Don't understand why AC manufacturers are not building easy starts into their products.

QUESTION Does that perm roof coating actually work or is it any good???

Todd, I really enjoy your videos. We recently purchased a new 2023 Newmar Bay Star 37 foot gas motor home. Do you think the suspension can significantly be upgraded using different components (springs, shocks, sway bars, steering enhancements, etc.) to greatly improve the ride / handling or should we just completely bite the bullet and go straight to a four corner Liquid Spring system with a Super Steer steering stabilizer? Thanks in advance for your reply,

If you had to choose between sumo springs or koni shocks to take some of the bone jarring jolt from rough roads on a class a gas motorhome, which would help the most?

I can run all 3 ac's on a 30amp service as long as the pedestal is shaded. Do i still need easy starts?

Great video Todd. Im also doing the correspondence course. I'm currently researching 12v fridge or a residential fridge for the motorhome. As you mentioned people are having issues with burned out 12v compresssors. You think that is less an issue with my lithiums? We still enjoy boondocking about a week at a time a few times a year. But im struggling with residential versus 12v. Thoughts?

I see a lot of soft start competitors on Amazon. Will they work as effectively? Soft start seem awfully expensive

No Liquid Springs?

👍👍👍👍👍

Hey Todd love the tech tips I have 2 questions I’d like to ask you. You talked about suspension upgrades I upgraded to the lippert center point air ride have you had any experience with these and what’s your opinion on them. Also if I change over to lithium batteries I have a 2022 jayco eagle and the converter has a switch for lead acid battery or lithium batteries will that be good enough to charge lithium batteries? Thank you

Why don’t RV AC manufacturers include easy starts as part of the AC units, or is that too much to ask?

If you're getting 12 volts from your batteries, you've got a battery problem...

I bought a trailer with 2 6v lead-acid batteries and I was thinking about adding a 200ah lithium battery that I already had. Is there any reason why I shouldn't do this? (combining the two)
