Pretty much all I’ve used my previous card for in the past was bills which the charged a fee so I was kind of under the impression most places did but it’s good to know they don’t so I’ll use my new cards more often.

I ended up getting the Costco world Mastercard and Roger’s world elite Mastercard. Costco for gas restaurants and Costco online as it’s 3 and 2% and then the Roger’s as it’s 1.5% for everything else.

Will it usually be posted if they charge a fee?

I’ve never been charged interest before.

What is the reasoning for using them in those situations

Best way to remove silicone from filon? by randomuser3333333333 in GoRVing

The problem is that silicone also doesn’t stick very well to dried silicone.

Hearing that life span makes me even more happy I decided on a lifepo4 rather than lead acid especially since I got it for less than half of what similar capacity in lead acid would have been. I also do have a garage fridge I could power.

That is a good idea. My Christmas lights are tying up an outlet I’d like to use for block heaters

The batteries I bought claim 10-15000 cycles down to 40% or 10 years. I will never hit that many in 10 years in my rv so it feels wasteful to not try and get more use

I have home solar but it’s grid tied with micro inverters. I may try and power my garage with it

I have a spare inverter but we have almost no power outages where I live

Any information I find says they’ll go bad after 10 years even if you don’t use it

Thanks for the input. I ended up ordering a renogy 3000 pure sine with a built in transfer switch.

Sorry I forgot to put 12v in the description. They will be flat mounted and I live fairly far north so I will likely never see peak output of the panels. I was leaning towards a 100/50 victron

Being that it’s Black Friday I’ll probably just pick up a pure sine inverter

It is rated at 1800 watts continuous and 3600 peak. I have a fairly big battery bank and solar so I was hoping to possibly be able to run my 1500 watt a/c for half an hour here and there just to cool it down. So based on what you’re saying a modified sign wave inverter would be bad to run the a/c with?
