We're taking delivery of a 2023 Reflection 260RD next week and have a few questions.
Does the 50 amp Furrion charge controller have a disconnect or on/off switch? My understanding is the solar panel is live as long as there is sufficient light. I would like to install a battery disconnect so there is no power to the 5th wheel when not in use. Do I have to install a disconnect at the input to the charge controller as well as the output of my battery/batteries?
I understand the charge controller has an option for lithium batteries. Can I just install lithium batteries and change the controller battery setting without any changes to my vehicle or converter? I understand my vehicle or converter will not keep the battery at optimum voltage level but the solar panel should. I don't plan to drive at night or do much dry camping at this time. If I dry camp in the future I would add more battery and solar capacity.
I know that Grand Design is now using Morryde suspension. Does the CRE3000 come with wet bolts?
My understanding is the owners of early on demand hot water tanks had issues when winterizing them. I understand that they have now been updated. I see there is no longer a hot water bypass. Do you just blow them out with air now and winterize with RV antifreeze?
I see all new Reflections come with roller blinds. Presently we always travel with our blinds closed. Is OK to travel with the roller blinds in the down position?
