I complain!!! You are breaking the rules. You cannot buy goodies for your clip till it is finish. Now take that fridge and those tie downs back till we see paint.
It's totally finished, in the garage, half loaded for this weekend.

The power cable for the charger has a 50 amp plug on it though and I'll have to open the battery boxes to charge the batteries 'til I wire the garage.
Ummm, that would've been nice to know ahead of time...

50 amp seems to be overkill - you got a microwave, big screen and big AC unit hidden in that thing ...? :ylsmoke:

Just go to walmart, or an RV/Trailer center and get a plug converter for like 11 bucks....in the trailer/towing section

Yeah, thats a 30/50 amp 120volt campground style hook up. All you need is the adapter. I have one on my trailer too...

Yeah, I guess.
But I used to be an electrician and thats just so ghetto-rigged...
...not that I've never done worse, that is.

Me too, but it works just fine. You'll be glad you have the bigger plug if you ever go to a campground. Ive been to a few that did not have a standard 15amp duplex outlet in the service poles, but they did have a 30 amp.

Besides, whats wrong with ghetto rigging? :elkgrin:

I just bought a converter at WallyWorld; ~$6.00.
I wore dark sunglasses and a false mustache. :costumed-smiley-007
