  1. Yes, we drink and cook from our fresh water tank. I sanitize the tank if it sits for more than a month and use two water filters. Never had a problem.
  2. Correction, it was the GFCI outlet that the inverter plugged into. I did not notice that was a GFCI plug, until I was going through Galloway Girls post again. Went back to double-check that outlet and walla! The circuit was tripped. Thanks for the help!
  3. Thanks, yes I have the GFCI outlet under the dinette. I tested that when I was plugged into shore power and it tested fine, so I ruled that out. But just double-checked it now, with only the inverter on (not on shore power) and it will not trip, when I test it. I plugged back into shore power and the GFCI outlet tests and resets fine. Looks like that might be it. I'll replace it today. Thanks to all!
  4. Thank you katanapilot and Ronbrink. There doesn't appear to be any CB tripped, but I could see it being the CFCI breaker. Where is the breaker for the inverter located? I don't see a CFCI breaker specifically for the inverter. Also, unforturnately we don't have a microwave.
  5. I'm sorry we got off track here. The first reply after my post said "Your outlets will only work with shore power, a generator, or with an inverter turned on if you have one." I replied our inventer is always on when using the inverter. I should have said my inverter is always on when using the outlets. But then the discussion turned to why not to use the inverter full time and away from the original post. We were out on a long camping trip, when this happened and it was the last BLM spot we camped in. I am home now and want to start working on the problem. The batteries are fully charged and my 110 outlets will not work with the solar. I am wondering if there is a fuse somewhere else in the trailer, other than the fuse/breaker panel or if I have a problem with the transfer switch, maybe? I'm asuming the problem is inverter-related, but not sure. I have the 320 solar watt package, with the Xantrex 2000 watt inverter. Looking for any ideas. Thank you!
  6. The batteries are back to fully charged. They went to down to around 50%, when this happened, but back to 100% now.
  7. I have four AGM batteries and the inverter is always turned on when using the solar.
  8. My 110 outlets are not working with my solar. Everything else works fine; lights, refrigerator, water pump, etc, but no 110 outlets. The outlets work while plugged into shore power or with the generator. This started when I was boondocking and did not notice my refrigerator was still set on DC, from traveling. When I went to make coffee in the morning, the electricity started struggling and eventually went out. I've checked all the possible fuses, breakers and GFCI plug, and all seem to be good. Is there a fuse for the inverter that is located somewhere else in the trailer, or could I have maybe fried the transfer switch? Thoughts? My trailer is an 2018 Elite II.
  9. Thanks for the heads-up. I've got a 780, and it needed a software and map update (estimated time 3 hours).
  10. i'm curious, approximately how much does the 5200 swap-out run?
  11. Congrats…to the next 100!!!
  12. Thanks for the heads up, doing it right now.
  13. 70% of the time we travel with an empty fresh water tank/30% with it full. Depends on the situation. I guess we’re one of the few that actually drink the water out of our fresh water tank. We use two water filters; one inline and one small half gallon size filter. Haven’t been sick yet. Fingers crossed!
  14. This happens to me every once in a while as well. Check the outdoor shower to make sure both the hot and cold water are turned off. Sometimes, especially after de-winterizing, I have found I left one of the outdoor shower valves open. Make sure they're both off and release any water pressure in the faucet, and sometimes that will fix the problem.
