Jerry Campbell from St. Louis, Missouri was experiencing difficulty maintaining his chassis battery when his coach was parked for any length of time, so he bought a Trik-L-Start unit to tackle the problem.
When you are plugged into shore power the Trik-L-Start automatically maintains your starting batteries and will ultimately extend battery life. The charge rate is tapered so it minimizes water loss.
It is easy to install and uses DC power from your house battery charger so there is no AC hard wiring required. It also works with solar panels when you are boondocking or have your motorhome in storage away from AC power. A one year warranty is standard and it comes complete with all the hardware you need for installation. It's durable, waterproof and can be mounted in any position.
A great value at under $50 and it can be used temporarily or mounted permanently. These units come standard on the Winnebago and Itasca class A diesel motorhomes so you know it is a reliable product. It works just as well on a gas powered motorhome. You can read more about this product here: Trik-L-StartHelping tame your parasitic loads - Jim Twamley, Professor of RVing

So...this works on the chassis battery, but what about if we have the problem with our Coach Battery not staying charged. We have a 2006 Four Winds 31 Foot. We are now on our second brand new battery. Any ideas?? Thanks so much!
I should probably have given you my email address about the Coach Battery. You can reach me at jpursell@rochester.rr.com
My coach ('97 Damon Ultrasport) has battery drain from the carbon monoxide detector and propane gas detector.The drain is small, about 100ma, but enough to run down the T-105's within two or three months. My chassis battery has a larger current drain due to the radio memory retention, oncoard computer, and alternator diode leakage etc. I charge both batteries and disconnect them in storage.
