RE: Running Hot!
Don't know where the power RPM range is on your engine but it is probably higher that the RPMs you were doing at 30mph in third gear.

RE: Want to add solar battery charger for storage use
Save your money, charge the batteries fully and disconnect the ground battery cable. Batteries will not lose their charge.

RE: Power gear hyd levelers low power
Bearings on the leveling motor go bad. If your reservoir and motor are behind the front grill water can get to the motor bearings. Mine started squealing, replaced the motor.

RE: Modified Sine wave inverter for seldom used microwave
Many still use a modified sine wave inverter, no problem there. Just know the microwave will be producing less heat.

RE: Battery charge
Your charger should supply a float voltage of around 13.2 -13.4 volts for a lead acid battery. If that 12.5 voltage was measured with the charger on and the battery connected the float voltage is to low from your charger.

You will need two thermostats. Wire the heat controls to just one.

RE: Dash AC
The F53 chassis has no vacuum system. the chassis makers have to add one to operate the heating/ac dash vent system. This system consists of a small 12v vacuum pump and a small vacuum tank and associated vacuum hoses that go to the dash controls.
If there is no vacuum the default vent path is through the defrosters.
Check all these vacuum lines around the pump and tank, usually under the hood in front.

RE: Hot Spot
Data from your carrier is used for a hotspot, with a weak or no data connection a phone hotspot will not work.
When you turn on your phones hotspot the phones WIFI turns off.
