Magnitude House battery issue
Hi Everyone,
Newbie RVer here and my first post on this forum so please excuse and educate me if i'm breaking rules or protocols with this.
My wife and I just bought a new 2021 Thor Magnitude BH35 last August (Camping World, Syracuse NY), and have only had the opportunity to take it out a couple of times before needing to have several problems fixed. The unit has now been at the service shop (CW, W Hatfield, MA) for more than three times as long as the time i've had it in my possession to use. So I'm really hoping to have all of the major problems fixed before getting it back from the shop this time.
One of the reasons I had to take the unit to the repair facility was that when I had the unit parked and not connected to shore power, the house batteries would drain to about 10V in about 24 hours even with no lights or appliances being powered. At this point it would be impossible to even start the generator without starting the engine of the truck. I called the Thor warranty support and they said that this was abnormal and needed to be fixed. However, at the repair facility, they are not able to replicate the rapid battery drain that I experienced. Being inexperienced myself, I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or is there an actual problem due to an unexpected power drain from the unit when parked. The only difference (I assume) from what i did versus the repair shop, is that I had the unit on the leveling jacks when parked with the automatic leveler turned off after the unit was leveled.
Any insights on what I might be missing?
Thanks in advance for reading and your thoughts.
Brendan
