All those fancy fans--are you planning a lot of batteries or just will use the generator to run stuff? The Fantastic fans are low amps But I will still have two T105 batterys to start and have the room for two more later this summer and will also be adding a solar panel.

It looks like you are off to a great spring start. Thanks for the tip here, For sure dont need that.

OT,
If your FanTastic fan is like mine with a remote control be aware that even when not in use the fan will draw current via the receiver and run down your house battery. I thought my battery was going bad at first. Now I use the battery cut off switch until I get around to installing a master switch on the fan itself.

Wouldn't you agree that it makes more sense for the manufacturer to install a 2 or 3 dollar master switch on a $245 fan? Cutting off all power to the coach or removing a fuse to disable the receiver is idiotic. I removed the fuse a couple of times and realized that the holder was not designed for easy and frequent removal and would not withstand such abuse. Finding the fuse and re-installing it in the dark can be difficult. Having the the coach sit idle for a week or two is not what I call being in storage but they deem it to be if one doesn't use the fan every day. What nonsense!

Where did you get the LED tail lights? This thread has been a good read; thanks for posting it. The tail lights came from pplmotorhomes And they are great to order and work with, I give them a 10 plus.
