Mossey, you have both BB and Lithionic batteries? Yep! I bought the BB's in 2020. I won the Lithionics battery at the 2025 OTTO's Rally. I haven’t installed the Lithionics battery yet, because my onboard charger is not approved by Lithionics. A MP2 is a future project. Mossey

CRM get a gold star for his observation, because I can confirm that the terminal bolts on my 3 100 amp hour BB's are 8mm or 5/16". My 320 amp hour Lithionic battery has the same 8mm or 5/16" terminal bolts. Mossey

I manually turn of the PD4045-CSV breaker @ the PD Power Center when charging is complete. Batteries charging @ 34.86 Amps Batteries completely charged, but still charging @ 0.50 Amps Battery charger turned off @ breaker and showing batteries discharging @ -0.83 A Mossey

I may remember a post about an interesting retirement job🤔 Mossey

@Snackchaser Great catch, spotting the Ollie in the ghost town! And the rest of the video is quite interesting. Mossey

@taylor.coyote This picture is from below the front hatch under the street side bed of my 2017 LE2. The yellow fuse holders are for the 3 Barker jacks, 1 for each jack. There are 2 fuse holders for the front jack, 1 under the bed and 1 outside by the front jack. Good luck, Mossey

@Patriot Thank you for answering my first 2 questions! The Victron Orion 12|12 - 9 installation location confused me, the converter I installed for the MAXXAIR fan voltage issue is in the attic area. I am familiar with Starboard products, as they are produced in Florida and I have used some around the house. I am always looking for different ways to do things and was wondering how Inverter Services attached the Starboard to the Oliver’s fiberglass? Mossey

@Patriot I have a couple of questions about your Victron/Epoch installation. Do you know what the black material is that they used for mounting the Victron equipment and Andersen connector? I also noticed that you have both an Orion XS 1400 DC/DC charger and an Orion-Tr 12|12 - 9 DC to DC converter. You mentioned that the Orion XS 1400 DC/DC charger was part of the lithium upgrade, so what is the purpose of the Orion-Tr 12|12 - 9 DC to DC converter? Mossey

@Donna and Scott and Paula and Cleo! Krunch and I had a great time at the 2025 Oliver Rally at Lake Mineral Springs SP. We really appreciated all of the hard work y'all put into hosting a wonderful rally! We would also thank all of the sponsors of the rally and especially the CGI team for the great looking t-shirts. Mike and Krunch

I think this scenario occurs when connecting to a generator without a bonding plug. Mossey

@aaronorange did you replace the OEM 300A breaker with a 400A breaker? It was not clear to me that the 400A was for testing purposes. If you haven’t had any issues with the 400A breaker, it may be that the 300A breaker was simply undersized for 390 AH's of batteries. Mossey

@aaronorange I am not sure what this 300A Optifuse is protecting, so without more information it may be difficult to get an answer. Can you include some pictures? Mossey

@Boudicca908 The man made mounting material or as I refer to as PVC, does not hold screws or threaded fasteners very well when using the same size fasteners as were original installed. I would suggest removing one of the existing screws and then finding the same type of screw that is one size larger. I think they are common pan head screws and installation and removal can be accomplished with a Phillips screwdriver. Some type of adhesive may help, but anything like epoxy may make removal difficult. So if you do use an adhesive, use it sparingly. You can always add more the next time. Mossey

A different view! Mossey

Since our Oliver was a one sided purchase, she still prefers the Hampton Inn and I have been in 'the dog house' ever since. My real reason for an Oliver was so we could travel with our dogs! Mossey

The Scandvik faucet/shower head that JD1923 opened this post about was original OEM equipment on the early model Oliver’s. I’m not sure when they switched to the Dura faucet/shower head, but it was OEM on our hull 193. And you are correct, many OTTO's have switched to the High Sierra brand, me included. All of our plumbing fixtures other than the High Sierra shower head are either Scandvik or Barka. Scandvik sells both brands in the US and the products are virtually identical. Mossey

FYI: Mossey

@jd1923 This is the result of a Google picture search using the picture you posted. Mossey

I am pretty sure that @SeaDawg has recommended storing butyl tape in the refrigerator. I think it’s a little easier to apply when it is cool/cold. Mossey

I don’t have a LE so I don’t have any definitive answers. Your picture is of the left side wall of the attic, can you provide a picture of the entire attic to include the right side wall? Have you removed the wall panel? That might provide answers to where the 12V and 120V cables terminate. Mossey

Been there, done that! And it was a treat. Mossey

@Patriot That lighthouse looks familiar! Mossey

@Rivernerd FYI: I do not have any experience with the 1up QuikRack so I can’t comment on it’s usage, but the attached chart indicates that the QuikRack is not approved for use with an RV or Travel Trailer. Mossey

@Dennis and Melissa Your 3rd picture looks like you are very close to the Prince of Wales hotel! Are you staying at the Waterton Townsite campground? Mossey

@ScubaRx forgot to mention his trick about leaving a piece of string trimmer line in the rear port side corner for future wire pulls! Mossey
