I'm hoping we can figure out what it is or what we are doing wrong. Get the slides out/in, run frig and maybe a few lights. I would think I should be able to run off battery for a day using just the basics. So the responses/communications are really frustrating. And I even have an email from Venture customer support saying the units are built for shore power. Then dealer said I could only run things if hooked to shore power (which I said I don't believe). But I don't understand how a battery drains almost immediately. Dealer initially said it's because the refrigerator is draining battery. Monitor panel will show full then I try to put slides in/out they won't go.ĭealer is contacting Venture. We wanted LP but Venture built it without LP as we like to camp at local National Parks that don't have power or water.īattery disconnect: Yes we know where the battery shutoff is and do turn the battery disconnect to run of battery and that is when everything goes down hill. I believe we have the 10CU FT runs on 12 V or 110 if plugged in and does not run on LP. we have the 2021 STT272VRK, it's at the dealer so can't check the frig right now. Hopefully between the IRV panel software update and converter replacement this will be the end of our challenges. Took camper back in late Sept and got "Little Coup" back home today Oct 14. We need to test more and we camp next end of August but for now the software upgrade has sure resolved a number of issues.Įdit 10/14/21: Converter breaker was tripping periodically starting in August and challenges with master bedroom slide. But other than that the software upgrade seems to resolved our main issues finally. I may have one issue with front bedroom slide on 30 amp - it stops when all the way out and does not click I have to push the panel button to get that one little click to know it's out (it doesn't do this on battery just 30 amp). The panel is not blanking out when taking slides in/out and main cabin lights are staying on. Got TT home tested this morning and everything seems fine. According to dealer, Venture/IRV is mailing (thought it would be electronic) the dealer latest software version and just maybe this will fix our TT issues.Įdit 7/21/21: Picked up TT yesterday couldn't test it out as they put another trailer next to ours and couldn't get steps down and it was not located next to 30 or 50 amp outlet. one day the dealer and Venture will figure this out.Įdit 6/25/21: Just maybe Venture and IRV discovered a bug in panel software version 10 (which is what we have). Conv fuse breaker tripping and camper acting like it did before slides not going in/out, panel blanking out. Ended up running a 10 gauge wire direct to IRV panel we were able to run off of battery.Įdit 6/7/21: Taking camper back in for 3rd time on 6/10/21. Venture General Manager ended up calling me, Dave Boggs, and will work through the issues with communication of parties, camper, and truck. Venture Customer support told me TT was not built to run off of battery and I blew up. Off grid solar is a trickle charge. Venture very responsive. Be sure to check your unit before taking possession unless you always plan to use shore power. More to come as this unfolds.ĮDIT 4/6/21: Unable to run off of battery until KZ can find a resolution. Dealer said you have to be plugged into power with a 12 volt frig. I think they got tired of me calling)įebruary 2021: Finally got our camper into the dealer in VA as we were not able to run off of 12 volt battery 2021 STT272VRK.įrustrating News: 12 volt system. We did buy our old camper with the local dealer so that helped. Nov 2020: Bought camper 2021 STT272VRK (bought in Ohio so a bit of an ordeal to get into local dealer.
