B-D RV Battery Lock (12-volt)
B-D RV Battery Lock: http://www.b-drvbatterylock.com/ Even though I/we have never ever had an issue with a battery "walking away" in the 15+ years that we have been trailer camping I have been intrigued whenever I would see this simple battery...

Serge - I just went out to the garage & checked. It is a group 27 "Attwood 'Power Guard' Battery Case". I have had 2 of them for at least 10 years so hopefully they are still in production.

Re: Princess Craft Truck Camper Rally, April 6-9, 2017
The January 27 facebook post by Princess Craft says they already have 28 TCs registered for the rally. Does that mean that it is Doug, me and 26 non LOA members?

Torklift Lower StableLoads on a 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 towing a Lance 1575
We recently switched TV's. We went from a more than adequate 2000 Lincoln Navigator with a self-leveling rear-end (air bags) which towed our 1575 easily straight and true to a more than adequate new-to-us 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 Extended Cab LTZ (V8, 5.3L, factory tow package, integrated brake controller, ...). *Here is the thread on our TV switch - http://lanceowners.hoop.la/top...ed-to-a-new-to-us-tv While the truck is much more than adequate to handle our small, skinny, & light 1575...

Re: Trojan 30XHS 12-volt group 30 deep-cycle battery (130 AH)
Thanks Bruce. You (once again) steered me in the right direction. 130 AH AND it fits in a group 27 battery box (which fits in/on the stock battery tray) - enough said!

Re: Trojan 30XHS 12-volt group 30 deep-cycle battery (130 AH)
Yep. Only adds ~15# to the tongue, but substantially more Ah over a stock group 27, and rated to 600 charge/discharge cycles at 50% DoD to boot. As a single 12v battery solution, they're hard to beat.

It's a great battery Kent. I am extremely happy with it. And it actually fits in a group 27 box (which fits in the TT's stock battery tray with no modifications) - http://www.attwoodmarine.com/s...y-Box-Power-Guard-27

Re: Trojan 30XHS 12-volt group 30 deep-cycle battery (130 AH)
A good choice! Is the 66-70 lb weight ever an issue being too much for one person to handle alone? The SCS225 battery is more of a marine battery, meaning it is designed to deliver high amps. Do you know how your 30xhs bulk, float, and equalize voltages compare to what your converter/charger puts out, or your solar charger if you have one?

Re: Trojan 30XHS 12-volt group 30 deep-cycle battery (130 AH)
Red, I am in the process of buying the same battery and a battery box. According to specs, t he atwood box you use is about 1/10 of an inch shorter in length than this battery, so I was going to buy a larger box, that has a bit too much extra room, and I am concerned it might not fit in the 1575 mounting area due to more width (I dont have my trailer yet so cant measure it). Is it a very tight fit lengthwise, perhaps a concern, or perhaps limiting tthe necessary ventilation?

Which manufacturers group 27 battery box are you using Red? The ones I have looked at are not quite tall enough for the 30XHS

Attwood powerguard 27 box inside dimensions: 13 7/8 x 7 1/4 x 10 1/2 = 13.875 x 7.25 x 10 .5 Trojan 30XHS dimensions: 13.94 x 6.75 x 10.09 According to specs it doent fit lengthwise! Does it indeed slide in and out without a problem?

You'll be happy with the Attwood (not to be confused with Atwood who makes our stoves, etc...) group 27 box as well. It holds group 27, 29, & 30 batteries as well as goes perfectly with the B&D lock.

Re: Trojan 30XHS 12-volt group 30 deep-cycle battery (130 AH)
Hi Laura, Sorry I missed this. Been busy with fires in our area. Evacuated with the trailer one night - dry camped in my sister-in-law's driveway & the battery was still at 96% in the morning with a lot of furnace & water pump use. Been on high alert ever since ready to roll. Driving back home brought the battery back to 100% & it is now plugged in to the house remaining fully charged. Just taking a rare rest this week and got on LOA. This will be short, but ask away for expanded...

Trojan 30XHS 12-volt group 30 deep-cycle battery (130 AH)
Picked up one of these today - http://www.trojanbattery.com/product/30xhs/ With our 1575 and the way that we load it (tongue-mounted bike rack with 3 bikes & 7.5 gallon/30 lb. LP tank) we run with a single battery on the tongue. *We dry camp and have solar &/or generator's depending upon the trip so a single battery has worked well for us for almost 16 years now. Through my work I accrue points towards purchases at certain places. One of them being Battery Systems (where I only had 4...

Re: Lance Factory Tour and BBQ Rally
The Anderson's again, if site 3 is not available, any one in that first group of sites, 8, 9, 12-14 would be good, as long as it would fit our 27' 2285 - Please let us know when we will be assigned a site. Thanks again, Dirk and Sharon Anderson, first time rally attendees. We look forward to meeting other Lance owners. Actually, after looking at all the posts, whatever would accomodate us would be good. Please let us now when we've been assigned a site that is not a dry camp site.
