Yeah Bob,

I charge mine up nightly and have a full charge in the morning. Too damn bad the pumps dont work!

I will pray that yours does. There is nothing more agrevating than not being able to complete a job and look unprofessional doing it.

How can you tell if you have low battery power out in the field? Would you have a low flow pattern or will your pump start making noises.
confuse

You know you have low battery power because you didnt charge it the night before.

Just wire your battery into the trailer harness, and be done with it. No charging nessecary.

I think I'm gonna try and do that this year. Then if I get an air system I don't have to also think about charging my batts every night.

You guys just run fused wire from the truck batt to a plug at the back of the truck and then a plug from the truck to the trailer/pump?

We installed a 7 prong (round) harness, and tied the battery into the connectors meant for the brakes. When we hook the trailer up to the truck, it automatically charges it.

Do you have a trailer, or is it going in the back of the truck?

Do not forget the Zip ties for bagging your gutters. I like the bucket idea and the downspout extenstions. Clever!!!!!!!!!
