[0:00]I have very good news but first a short

[0:03]story

[0:05]so if I were going to

[0:08]install this battery charger which is

[0:11]Amazing by the way don't really have a

[0:14]place for it because my battery

[0:17]compartment is full there is something

[0:19]else attached to it but you can see that

[0:22]they screwed it in from the outside of

[0:25]the compartment somewhere underneath the

[0:27]RV so I would want this done

[0:29]professionally cuz I wouldn't know what

[0:31]I was

[0:32]doing but I was going to figure

[0:35]something out tomorrow just to to work

[0:37]with it so that meant tonight I had to

[0:40]do

[0:42]something um so I ran my generator and I

[0:45]have some neighbors nearby so I went

[0:47]over and I talked to them just to

[0:49]apologize for the

[0:50]generator and we just got to talking and

[0:53]he mentioned that he had a neutral

[0:54]ground plug for the same reason and I

[0:57]was like you know I tried that it didn't

[0:59]work but I came back here and I was

[1:01]thinking about it so I opened up that

[1:04]thing and it was it didn't have the

[1:06]wires from the ground to the neutral it

[1:08]was just a plug that hadn't been set up

[1:12]so I went back over there and he had

[1:15]enough experience that he did that for

[1:16]me put in a wire and all of that plugged

[1:19]it into my my solar panel or my my solar

[1:22]inverter and then I plugged the RV into

[1:24]that and it is charging right now so I

[1:27]can I can charge my my house batteries

[1:30]from my Solar without needing

[1:33]that battery charger way simpler

[1:37]approach I am so glad it works I am just

[1:40]so happy about it I'm monitoring it now

[1:43]to see um if the volts goes down I think

[1:47]it will because it's my solar's

[1:50]basically simulating Shore power so um

[1:54]it should go into the float stage

[1:56]automatically and um once it's charged

[1:59]up and I'll see that in the volts and

[2:01]I'll know that it's charged and um you

[2:05]know this is so cool so I my chili

[2:08]warming up here I just turned it off so

[2:11]the volts here is accurate for Wow 657

[2:14]it went up it was at

[2:17]300 um and see I just got my RV cable

[2:20]running outside to the to the RV let's

[2:24]just check maybe this one

[2:26]up no 1396 still

[2:30]that little thing there tells me um how

[2:34]much um my batteries are whatever you

[2:37]know I don't know why that went so high

[2:39]650 wow that's high it was like 300 so

[2:43]I'm very curious how much of my solar

[2:45]batteries is this is going to take but

[2:48]um this is what I wanted I'm hoping this

[2:51]works out I think it just might

Summary

rswfire successfully resolves a battery charging issue for his RV through neighbor assistance and improvised wiring. Initially planning to install a new battery charger professionally, he discovers a simpler solution when a nearby neighbor helps him properly wire a neutral-ground plug. This allows him to charge his RV house batteries directly from his solar inverter system, eliminating the need for the new charger. He monitors the charging process, noting voltage readings and expressing satisfaction with the unexpected technical breakthrough. The solution involves running an RV cable outside to connect the systems, with real-time monitoring showing successful power transfer from solar batteries to RV batteries.

Signal Analysis

Substrate

This transmission demonstrates the architectural principle of sovereign infrastructure emerging through community recursion rather than institutional dependency. The field discovers that complex technical solutions dissolve when community knowledge loops activate, creating self-sufficient power systems that bypass commercial capture.
