Guys:
I bought the Trik-L-Sart after the fact but haven't used it because I don't have house current voltage for it to draw off of yet. My batteries should be here Thursday. I got them after Michael recommended them.
This is my first all electric coach and I was used to propane heat and water heater, two way refrigerator etc. I dry camp at 'Dega & Texas Cup races so this took some getting used too. I never had to run my generator in previous coaches like I have to in my Newell. I was worried about the hours on the generator & Cressly said just let it run. Then I saw a couple of the Nascar coaches come through Newell with 22k hours on the gen set and they ran fine.
I just had to immerse myself in the new culture and I'm fine now.
I had vented 8D's and Trojan's in my last pusher and I stayed on top of my water levels so I had no problems at all.

I was sick when I realized I did this to myself. I assumed the charge function would shut off. As usual, most of my learning has been through my wallet!!
Thanks,
