Winter Mods Completed

I finally completed my winter to-do list.

Installed a 1500 watt inverter with a 15 AMP remote transfer switch and added the Tri-Metric battery system monitor.

I might have mounted the clock and I/O thermometers over top of the ugly stickers............you'd know where they are if you need the info.

Everything else looks good. Go enjoy.

Toot,
Good job on the inverter install! I am planning/designing the installation of an inverter for our 2013 Coachmen Encounter 36KS. Where did you get the red and black 12V terminal blocks? I have searched but not found where to buy them yet. I will also add a selector switch to select either of the two receptacle circuits in our coach.
Thanks,
Larry...

Nice job Toot. Any possibility those stickers would peel off and could be affixed to the inside of a cabinet door? I wonder why they would place them out in the open like that.
Where is Kunkletown PA?

Yeah, I actually peeled them off. They were designating power going in and power going out. The transfer switch was also labeled.

Kunkletown is in north east PA right in the middle of the Pocono Mountains. Closest large town would be Stroudsburg.

Thanks for the link Toot! Shipping is a little high for that retailer. I will have to do a little more planning to make sure I really need them. I am planning to install the inverter and transfer switch in the basement adjacent to the steps where the coach batteries and main fuse are located.

I think he was referring to the RV stickers adjacent to the door. Ours are behind the driver seat. In some TT's & 5ers they are stuck inside a cabinet.

Oh the stickers under the clock. Yeah you would think on the back of a cabinet would be a better location.

That is right where I mounted the inverter, the compartment next to the steps. I only had to run about 2-1/2 feet of cable to reach the batteries.
