Even the bolted (not welded) connections to the aluminum terminals are suspect. There's been such a concern over the resistance to balance the cells that the contact paste usually used on bolted aluminum terminals hasn't been used. Normally the cell are welded but studs were added (with varying...

They put brass and aluminum together which is like mixing oil and water in an engine. On top of that they didn't take any extra measures knowing that aluminum for at least 40 years has caused 1,000s of electrical fires due to poor connections.

XPEL PLUS was on the headlights of 3 of my trucks so I figured it would be OK to put on acrylic windows. If I hadn't put it on the windows 2 years ago I woudn't be able to see out the windows now.

Full disconnect at 660F when the aluminum melts

Here's another more expensive option but it has more benefits. https://www.irvwpc.com/

You could swap the fans to 12V........but it's easier/more useful installing an inverter.......once you have an inverter you may as well run a dehumidifier.

Do a search for Bureck CD Thermostat

Look for heaters that modulate to reduce start/stops.

Skip the HRV and look at the larger MVHR that have seperate filters for cold and warm air.

I did this but with a Propex heater. The best way to destroy a diesel furnace is not running the combustion chamber hot. Bringing in cold air through ducts (not a window/vent) = more condensation problems to solve.

- run a dehumidifier or have plenty of fuel to heat / vent (to the outside) air - a hygrometer (humidity) meter shows the % of moisture the air (not the % in the air) can hold. In winter 30–40% is best. - lower the humidity before circulating warm air into/onto cool compartments/surfaces or...

People don't want to know. That's why the RV market is the way it is.

A window/vent cracked open isn't any more effective as removing 2nd hand cigarette smoke as it is CO. I knew a couple that used a X? year old catalytic heater in their home. When they were found the CO alarm was going off. "Catalyst pad poisoning can cause lowered heat output and release of...

It's OK to run a Wave or Mr. Buddy heater inside until the day it's not. On that day you'll either be sick and wish you never saved a few $$.....or dead. Go to a RV dealer and take some pictures of the propane systems Required to be continuous from the appliance to outside There a few tricks...

My guess would be in this order Tires / Wheels / Gear Ratio / Frontal Area / Weight.
