UPDATE this morning checked the state of the main š¬ā¦
Last night, parked it and took note of the voltage sitting at 12.7v, this morning, 12.3v!
I pulled out the aux battery I had hid away in the back of the truck for just this moment I feared, to just hold it for a while. I put it on the...
Well, it didnāt take long after separating the twins for the main to sputter and show signs of impending death approaching on the near horizon. After surgically removing the aux and giving the main a good dose of charge till it couldnāt take any more, the alternator keeps charging at 14v and...
I know itās in fun! I get laughed at a lot and it doesnāt hurtā¦.much.
Stock up, I have! 2 extra high amp Z fuse arrays and one extra can bus connector in the glove box, a set of still good oxygen sensors and other parts and pieces scattered throughout the bedroom, (second bedroom).
I feel like the āneedā for the two battery system (not meaning duel battery) should be discussed in some kind of recovery program or something so Iāll become vulnerable for yāall and start it here.
My need to carry on the two battery system was founded in the need i felt I had to have the main...

Straight up⦠I have no regrets. Iāve rotated twice now and coming up to my third rotation soon. I have put on about 15k kms. Yes, these are F rated 12 ply tires, not because I need it, which obviously I donāt, truck is too light for them and even though I first chaulk tested them to be 29-30psi...
Small correction here, I switched my Canadian metric display for good ol American numbers so itās easier communicating to youal. So, in actuality, Iām at 127k km and @Stan H would be at 212k kms. Heās double me with the same 2021 truck.
This second engine is at about 100k km (60k miles) but the...
Can someone (or many) explain why there are two different voltage readings when checking what the batteries are reading?
Thanks to @Stan H for mentioning battery voltage issues,ā¦it made me check mine!
Engine off, dash says 12.1 and the multimeter says 12.34v. Iām confused. (This happens often)...
