RE: Increasing towing capacity
Or, you could just say "Numbers are for geeks" and go ahead and tow whatever you want...
I want to point out that I believe the quoted is said as tongue in cheek and for those that hear what they want to and ignore the rest. Do not believe this because it is what you want to hear.
There is no magic wand. Your rig is only capable of it's rating. As others have said, the engineers rated your rig because they know the limits of each component. Is your current hitch rated at 3.5K? Contact the mfgr and determine if your rig is capable of upgrading the hitch to 5K.
Please, please, please, Do not guess. Do not take a nonprofessional's or an anonymous source on a forum word for it It is not only your life and your families lives but those that travel on the same roads as you.

RE: Need Audio advice for my build
I would go into a Car Toys and/or Best Buy, or other place that sells and look at items and pick their brains.

RE: residential refrig.
Do you have a good charge line from TV to 5vr? I would use an inverter.

RE: Elec. heat v. Gas heat
The a/c is a 2019 15,000 btu Colman Mark with a heat pump.
When set to electric heat, it will not switch to gas heat at a certain outside temp. It will no longer exchange heat at about 40F as there is no longer heat for it to draw in. It will change over to gas heat when the inside temperature is 5 degrees less than the set (on the thermostat) temp, if you have propane in the tank.

RE: How do I turn off my Dish network
NEVER NEVER NEVER use the word "suspend" ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS use the term " disconnect " or " cancel my service " . If you use the word suspend they will put your account on pause and bill you a $5 monthly fee to maintain the account. If you truly have Pay-AS-You-Go. Just don't pay the next months bill, the account will cancel automtically.
this is usually how we do it. but if we find ourselves ready to shut down with more than a few days left in the month we'll call and our unused balance will become a credit on the account.
You are correct. I miss typed above. thinking and typing too fast. Disconnect is the correct word.

RE: Upgrade V-10 to Turbo?
Look at Banks Power Systems. Increased power significantly on our previous 2004 V10 with 2 valves.

RE: Windshield Shades
Love our MagneShade. Easy up and down. No climbing. One person can handle it. Large gusts did not remove it. Cuts a lot of sun. Still get a reasonable view. Worth the expense for us.

RE: Jump starting the generator
The batteries have loads that cannot be switched off which kills the batteries over time. Fully charge the batteries then remove the negative battery cables when storing. Mark and take pictures first. In 6 months the batteries should start the engine or gen w/o a issue.
I'd start the gen first and let it run for a hour assuming the charger charges both banks.
Also, the gen may not direct charge and trickle charge will not charge a depleted battery. With gen running it will still take up to 30 minute, with the boost/crossover switch engaged, to bring the chassis up to a state that it will start your engine.

RE: Operating on a 20amp circuit
Lonnie,
You will also want to note if there are other things running on this circuit, like a freezer in the garage. Easy to over look and each item adds up.

RE: Strange house battery issue
If it were me, I'd get a 12v/120v multimeter. You can get them fairly cheap, almost anywhere. I would disconnect the pos on the batt(s) and run the converter as normal, and measure the output of the converter. Then I would mesure the charge in the batts. I'd post the results here. You will get better and more focused info/diagnosis by posting the test results.

RE: Water line burst
As others have said, buy a quality pressure regulator, not one of those cheap reducers. Big difference.
