Better yet, a lesson to not replace any fuse or breaker with a higher capacity without considering the circuit (wiring and devices) it is -- or I should say WAS -- protecting.

Hi. I believe our 'Level-Up' systems are designed like the large hydraulic door on our pole barn/hangar. There are restrictors built into the cylinders so the system can't free-fall should one of the hoses blow...it will be a controlled fall.
I've noticed that the hydraulic pump raises our Solitude faster than it pulls the jacks up when there is no load on them because of the restrictors.Frank and Char + Maya, Newport, Michigan. 2016 Solitude 379FL/2006 F250 6.0 diesel w/dually conversion. 4th rain-sense roof vent, two ceiling fans, Kodiak disc brakes, Carlisle G 14-ply tires, Water Miser x2, final dump valve, water header tank, fridge cond fan switch, outside range exhaust, elec hot water anode, filtered drinking water, triple battery box,

This was the information I based my decision not to upsize the wire on. Lesson learned.
Thank you all for keeping this conversation going. I'm sure there are many out there still using the 80A breaker with 6 gage. In hindsight searching on this forum, I see several pictures of the 80A breaker with the old 6 gage still in use. Hopefully, others can learn from my mistake and prevent their own fires, check their extinguishers, and maybe even add more extinguishers in locations that are always accessible.2017 Solitude ST360RL

On our annual fire extinguisher inspection the tech turns the extinguisher upside down and hits it pretty hard with a plastic mallet to dislodge any powder, then shakes it for about 30 seconds to be certain the powder is loose inside. These are wall mounted inside a building. I never thought about the constant vibrating packing the powder. Very good point
