  1. Tim W I resolved this by reading and better understanding. The RVC is the first step when the battery shuts down because it has discharge to a low state. However the "R" is for "reserve" which means the batteries still have enough charge to do some tasks to get you going; such as raise the three jacks. You just need to push the on buttons on the batteries to access the "reserve". The LVC is an even lower charge than the RVC and means the batteries are done until recharged again. The RVC saves you & the LVC means show over.
  2. Poorly stated and should be toned down...but correct.
  3. Mike & Carol. Just an hour (small world that you just posted your location there) I made a reservation there for 2/24/23 during my route west. Only site remaining was #23; only one night so site condition is not a real concern. However, any other thoughts/recommendations for our brief stay? Thanks. And Happy New Year all!
  4. Morning "Hobo" & "QuestionMark", Do you have the 3,000 or 6,000 lb model? If you have the smaller of the two do you have enough maximum reach? If you could do it over would you buy the larger model for greater maximum reach in uneven terrain situations? Thanks for your thoughts in advance.
  5. Hello "Lost..." I recently remodeled (lowered the floor) my garage and installed a new 10' door for my O-2; works great. Search for my project pictures under Gliddenwoods.
  6. I recently had a ceramic coating applied to my Oliver. Because of cold and wet (Wisconsin) Fall weather we made a decision to leave the trailer in the ceramic owner's garage (heated & dry) for a bit over another week and a half to insure good ceramic curing time before the hour drive back to my heated garage. Because the original plan was for a much short stay in his business garage I did not turn off my batteries (as in "short term storage") as recommended by Lithionics. When I went I to bring my Oliver home the lithium batteries' discharge current had been disabled by the "BMS Function". There are two BMS functions which will disable the Lithionics Lithium batteries; "Reserve Voltage Cutoff" (RVC) and Low Voltage Cutoff" (LVC). See page 183 of the 2022 "Optional Features Component Manuals" which is page 9 of 11 of the Lithionics Lithium Batteries manual to read the explanations of RVC and LVC. So.....my question to those who are better informed than me is how does one determine whether the batteries are in RVC or LVC? Both BMS function disable the current discharge so the situation appears the same. However depending on RVC or LVC how to address the situation is different. So, restating my question with a battery with the current discharge disable how does ine determine RVC or LVC? Thanks.
  7. Could you please share a photo of this technique? Thanks.
  8. Chukarhunter Thanks for the good information. I previously considered installing an air return vent in the bathroom but will do so now for sure. Question. How did you "seal and insulate" the battery door (also on my to-do list)? Same for storage door? Thanks.
  9. Thanks for the responses and some good advice as how to maintain the up storage for towing.
  10. Our TV has "dropped" into viewing position when towing. We are interpreting this action as a message that the TV should be in the down position when towing. Those of you with more tow traveling miles agree? Any counters to our conclusion as why not? A few brief replies would be appreciated. Thanks
  11. Have you had your Oliver ceramic coated in Wisconsin? If so, by whom? Are you pleased with the end product? Do you recommend? Door County Oliver II owner. Thanks.
  12. See www.deskview.co Deskview shelves with suction cups; we use by our Oliver bed.
  13. Alde hot water trailer heat system! We owned a nuCamp 400 (great rig) before our Oliver which had an Alde. Really like our Oliver; miss the Alde.
  14. Has anyone purchased the portable solar panel unit that Oliver sells for assisting in the charging of lithium batteries? What brand & model does Oliver sell? Are you pleased with your experience with the unit with your lithium batteries? Thanks
  15. Ticket submitted on the weekend. Mike responded today that he is forwarding my complaint/photo to "quality control".
  16. TG2. Did not. New to the process. Will do. I must stress I am very pleased with all the O staff I have met and do not want to be an unnecessary pain in... Thanks.
  17. Thanks for the replies & just confirming my perspective. My O is 2.5 weeks old and I am very pleased overall & very impressed with the quality & the O staff (good people!). However, I (as a boat & furniture woodworker) can not in anyway understand the O use of too long of bolts that are just wrong is wrong. No woodworker would do this. I checked the door in the showroom and the same incorrect bolts/construction is on the show O2. I hope O is listening and will correct this error going forward. Disappointing. Easy for me to fix, but...
  18. John ED...just a minor no skin break scratch on shorter person; I don't want my message to overstate...
  19. The bolts extend approx 1 inch longer past the bolt nuts. Already had caused a leg scratch. Protective rubber caps were installed by Oliver, but wht not just use correct bolt length during construction? None-the-less does anyone have a good reason why I should not just cut them off to shorten? Hacksaw in hand... Thanks
  20. Thank-you John, Frank & Mike; clear very helpful replies.
  21. We have plugged our brand new 2022 (#1242) Oiver II into three different electrical outlets with GFCI at three different campgrounds and each time the campground outlet breaker trips; no 120v. If the outlet is not GFCI all is fine and we have 120v service. Question. Is this normal? Is it correct that all Olivers can not be used with 120v at any campground with GFCI outlets? Or is this situation unique to our new Oliver II? Many campgrounds have GFCI outlets so this situation would be/is disappointing! Be advise & thanks.
  22. New Oliver II driving home. Tried to dump gray tank and it appears the handle cable is not attached to the valve. I believe I recall others have had this problem. So there a thread or memo on how to repair. Thanks. Yes I will add my rig & tow info when home...2022 Oliver II.
