Batteries ???

Yahoo Message Number: 50305
Hi All:

I have a question, the last couple of days when we have pull our rear slide in it's still on shore power, the inverter inverts and uses about 15 apps to go in or out. Now the inverter changes to charge and since it's being stored we have it set for lower to 15 appps. The inverter switches to charge and it will go past 15 apps and shut off. What do you think? . (Bad battery, they are AGM about 1 year old.) Vic

If you were on shore power I wouldn't expect any draw on the inverter.
Is it possible that while you are plugged in you aren't getting shore power?
Check that you have both legs of the circuit at the surge protector and on your inside panel make sur ethat it is lit up indicating shore power.
We had the power cord go bad (TDI reel) and when plugged in it would be intermittent. Since we leave the inverter on we were running on batteries for about 6 hours before we even noticed...including running all of the slides out.
