General Q & A / Dual Battery Box
October 03, 2017, 12:43:48 PM
Can anyone recommend a dual battery box that fits inside the battery rack on the newer Camplites.  I understand the battery rack is a rather new addition to a standard build.  The depth of the aluminum battery rack is 8.5" with a 1" lip.  That is quite narrow and all the dual battery boxes I've looked at exceed that critical depth measurement.  Mounting one of those larger boxes without removing that 1" lip will reduce the vertical clearance so it looks like it will not fit because the top of the battery box will hit the front camper wall due to the curvature of that front wall (the diamond plate section).  There is only 14" of clearance between the bottom of the battery rack and the front wall of the camper.  I was hoping that I could place two 6 volt batteries in one dual battery box on the existing battery rack, but I have not found a dual box with that small of a footprint.  I may have to install the 2-6V batteries in separate battery boxes which will increase cabling distances.  I could cut off the 1 inch lip on the battery rack, but I hate taking that destructive step.  Any advice?

Product Questions and Recommendations / Furrion or Zamp
September 22, 2017, 12:05:07 PM
2017 and some early 2018's had a Zamp Solar connector port.  On the 2018 16TBS Platinum video that Matt from Leo's RV posted on Youtube, it shows a Furrion connector port.  Is Zamp out and all new 2018's now prewired for Furrion solar?
