RE: Visible Cell Plans & Service

I'm very likely going to switch to Visible.Now that I have Starlink, I don't need to pay for Verizon's excellent coverage. As long as I have a phone that allows wifi calling (not that I make many phone calls) I'm good. And, of course, a phone that Visible will let me keep. I like my smartphone.

RE: Inverter and battery sizing to power my camper microwave

battleborn is way over priced for what it is. There's always a different opinion. I don't subscribe to the 'overpriced' argument.

RE: Inverter and battery sizing to power my camper microwave

.. positive stuff about Battle Born…… agreed or not?I always buy the best I can afford, and if you plan on RVing for many more years, I would buy the BBs.
It's not that cheaper products won't work, it's for how *long* they will work. My life experience is 'you get what you pay for.'.. every time.

RE: cat tranquilizer

but driving all day may leave them wanting to get outside for a while. Yes, they will definitely want to go outside. I walk mine. She loves smelling bushes and scratching trees and climbing them. That's what cats do.

Price would be much cheaper for SOKYes, which is why I quoted what he said about cheap.

RE: cat tranquilizer

Nothing. Let them adjust. If you cage them that may just make things worse. They're curious creatures who will be more comfortable looking at and smelling everything. They need to know their new environment.
What is your plan for being at a campground?

RE: Inverter and battery sizing to power my camper microwave

Buy 2, 100 ah SOK batteries....I am not looking for the cheapest, I am looking for the safest, most reliable approach. Is there some reason you chose the SOK rather than say, Battleborn?

RE: Inverter and battery sizing to power my camper microwave

I have been wavering between Renogy, GoPower and Victron. Victron is a lot more expensive, but I want to do this right.Also consider Outback. My 3400w is almost as heavy as my generator.
I've owned several lightweight and cheaper inverters and they seem to last about 4 years.

RE: Anyone awitch to new Visible Plans?

$30 plan for a hotspot. Got the cheapest phone they had at the time ($100 Visible Midnight). No phone we own will qualify to transfer. Never does. I will contain my enthusiasm until I find out if I can keep my phone. I don't want some cheap pos.

RE: Anyone awitch to new Visible Plans?

I've had Verizon Visible since it was first introduced. Still paying the $25.month for unlimited phone,text, and 5G/4G data.I think I better do this. I'm paying $175 a month for 2 lines and very little data. Terrible. Now that I have Starlink I don't worry about coverage. As long as Visible allows wifi calling I shouldn't have a problem.

RE: Inverter and battery sizing to power my camper microwave

If I upsize, I assume that my microwave would not be an issue, but does that increase draw on my batteries enough to be a concern?No. The only concern is the slight more amount of idle current for a bigger inverter.
Inrush to me means the same as startup current on an air con. I don't know what else it could mean.

RE: Inverter and battery sizing to power my camper microwave

So you can run your air conditioner for over an hour?With just 200ah I wouldn't count on it (for a 13.5 a/c), and at 12v input that's a lot of amps and things may start to heat up.
