A "bird" is a short cut for a bidirectional relay device or auto battery charger switch for chassis and coach power supplies for dual simultaneously charging. I doubt a year 2000 had one, became popular maybe 5 years later.

I believe the post prior to yours was helpful to the new member. This site is so overloaded with all the abbreviations, etc., that I don't think anyone can understand them all.

I immediately knew what the original post was about because it's a common expression in the aircraft industry (some airplanes can have as many as 4-5 BIRDs, depending on the number of batteries, inverters and TRUs installed). I didn't reply because I don't have a clue what would be installed on the referenced RV.

Yes Vince was helpful, I'm referring to the joke posts and the deleted posts. The acronym issue was why I had the OP clarify the definition of BIRD.
