Sorry about that post. I may have had a drink or two before posting that. Glad that you really do have a sense of humour.

So for you guys who went to Boulton Creek last weekend, what was open in terms of dump and fill stations? Or did they have water at the sites?

I was in the A loop which is unserviced. The community taps however, were working. I didn't need to dump anything, but I am pretty sure I saw a few trailers using it.

Where are the RV dump stations located in SE Calgary.

I brought some souvenirs back from the CPSW camp out a few weeks back.

I need to rinse and dump before winterizing.

The puzzles never end! My battery is dead. Checked with a multimeter and it reads at 1.29v so its shot. (Was charged last weekend). So what I'm wondering is with a dead battery, should I still have power plugged in to a tow vehicle? I don't.

I guess what I'm trying to figure out is whether the issue is the battery alone, or I have a DC power issue elsewhere and the battery is also dead. AC is totally fine, by the way.

Being hooked up to your tow vehicle only provides a very light trickle charge, you would not be able to have power via your tow vehicle's battery.

Slava- the tow vehicle will provide about 2 amps of power; which should be enough to register on a meter. However I know my truck has to be running to send power. Otherwise if you leave your trailer hooked to your truck you could kill both batteries.

For troubleshooting you could use a car battery. But don't use it long term; car batteries are designed to provide a LOT of power quickly to start a car, not slow release like a deep cycle battery.

OK, its probably just a dead battery then. I just figured that plugged in to a running tow vehicle I would at least have lights, but I've got nothing.

I had my trailer plugged into my truck for a couple of days during the CPSW tourney a few weeks back.

My battery was shot and I need some juice to keep the fridge going. (electronics on a propane fridge)

Also ran some lights. Didn't seem to affect my truck battery at all.

The flying J is $10 but if you get a free loyalty card it is only $5.

Pro tip. Don't wear flip flops. Glad I had my rubber boots in the truck.
