In the past 9 months One of my Dometic Fridges has an issue where it won't turn off, and the fridge has had less than 3 or 4 months total runtime,
And Two days ago One of my Dometic PLB40 Power Station's has decided it won't charge after 10 or 12 uses It won't reset and the screen says it is...
I did read it, But when you say Truck Campers Are you talking about the Slide On Campers or similar?. And I do use small to medium Sogens in my Van/MPV/Camper or my RV Trailer as well as at home and I use them for running AC everything, The chances are if it is in "Your" Home then I have a Low...
It's funny how you tell people the AC180 and AC180P and the AC200L are not Good When they are the Number One Selling and most wanted Sogens on the Market Globally,
yet on your "Good" list two of them have them worst parasitic consumption of any Sogens made as well has having poor usable...
The whole Idea of having both leads plugged in originally came from people who Live off Grid or in RV's or even bugout situations, In that with both leads plugged in at the same time is for when the Grid goes down or a Generator runs out of fuel the Fridge should Automatically Switch over to 12v...
Yep for sure,
It really annoyed me because I have a lot of Dometic products, In the past 3 - 4 years alont I have bought 3 of their fridges and 2 of their Dometic PLB 40 SoGens which all have been fantastic products, I went to a big camping Expo and saw the newer CFX3 range and due to all the...
After reading this thread and many others I don't understand why people keep buying the CFX3 Series fridges from Dometic, There have been Hundreds Upon Hundred of CFX3 Owners who have had seious issues with them,
The Original CFX was a Good Fridge but the CFX3 Series are Rubbish, Because...
To Answer your question , Yes they are worth it, and regardless of what the industry calls them they have hundreds of uses, From camping to Off Grid Living to supplying power at a job site or remote location, as well as PowerOuts, As well as Aux Power from Vehicle to vehicle and RV's, Boats...
Because modern vehicles are fitted with smart alternators and the BMS in the AGM tells the Alternator what to put out to prevent over charging, Regardless of what "Was" for many years with modern vehicles require very stable voltage due to the amount of computers they have in them and all these...
It's the same with AGM's you can't blast them because of the BMS, My new vehicle came with an AGM as the starter battery and it does not matter if I use a 26A smart charger or a 15A one it just won't have it and when it gets real low the chargers will coarse charge it in 6 to 8 hours then they...
No not quite, The Charge Rate in Limited by the Upper and Lower limit Voltage and Amps that is preprogrammed in to the BMS after the Cap/Limit is reached the battery will not charge any faster than it is programmed to do,
All of My SoGens are setup by the factory to except the Volts/Amps that...
It's all very well blast charging these units in under and hour but that is going to cost you in terms of cycle life, dispite what the companies say in their advertising blurb does not alter the fact that these batteries don't like being hammered.
The simple answer is yes,
I have a few SoGens but due to a lot of bad weather I also have a Generator so I can charge the SoGens using the wall adapter but in order to speed up the charging time of the SoGens I have also bought the Factory high powered Wall Charger which works about twice as...
