Day 240, Gundiah, Qld

 The saying that things happen in three’s happened today. First the Power Management System, then the washing machine, and now the battery.  We are grateful, once again, that it happened in the best possible place. We are now at our sons place at Gundiah. 

Since we have had the new power management system installed, up until today, we haven’t really driven very far, and today we realised that the car wasn’t charging the caravan battery.  A few emails to the Projecta helpline and a couple of screenshots of our LCD panel, and they were able to tell us that our car battery is only putting in 13.5 volts to the caravans Lithium Battery that needs 14 volts to charge.

We contacted an auto electrician in Gympie who, although completely booked out, said that we could come to him (tomorrow) Thursday, and he will be able to fix the problem. It will most probably mean the installation of a DC to DC charger, that are not very expensive. We hope that it will be an easy fix.

It is raining heavily at Marco’s place. What did I say about rain following us ***sigh***….. However it didn’t stop us from having a lovely evening with Marco and Suzie. Suzie made a really delicious chicken salad with a very interesting avocado dressing for dinner, and it wasn’t long after dinner that we hit the sack.

We were both extremely tired after a somewhat stressful day trying to figure out what was wrong and were both asleep as soon as our heads hit the pillow. We will have a couple of days here at Gundiah before we head north to our friends at Tannum Sands.
