Default Mine is different too

On my 05 Sun Voyager gas unit (8.1 ltr Chevy) I have 1 engine starting battery and two deep cycle "house Batteries". All of these are right behind the grill with the starting battery on the drivers side and the two house batteries on the passenger side.





I know that a diesel requires a lot more current/power to crank an engine. Normally there are two "cranking batteries" and at least one large coach battery.


I had my coach parked by the house with the refrigerator running like I always do but this time I didn't plug in because we were leaving in couple of days. I left the heater set at 65 not remembering that the heater fan runs on 12 Volts. So I found the fridge thawed and the house batteries drained.



A learning experience.
