While on my trip back from the LTV rally in Winkler, I experienced a "Dead Battery" situation. I left a cooler plugged in over-night, using the power outlet below the Radio console, which is fed from the Engine Batteries. I was able to "jump start" the engine starting battery using a cable from the "Battery Boost Point" located in the engine compartment and my coach Battery system under the floor in the van. I made the jumper cable from a 30 Ft #2 welding cable and a pair of insulated Alligator Clamps; which I now keep stored in the driver’s door storage compartment. I have since made up another single jumper cable, stored in the passengers door storage compartment, in case I need to jump start another vehicle from my Van.
While at the LTV rally I met with one owner who had hooked up a trickle charge system using the power of the coach batteries to "trickle Charge" the engine starting batteries. Perhaps that owner, or others may have also done this; if so can they share the details of how they accomplished this feature.
