Just want to celebrate. Starcool works!
So the seller that sold me the camper said Starcool didn't work. And when I first tested it, he was right. I read the manual that said with Starcool the van needed a 45a converter, I just swapped over to a LiFePo4 compatible converter and tested it, cleaned up the terminals on the fuse box, threw new fuses in and tested. On low speed, hardly anything, medium, starts blowing cool, but wait, there's more, on high, it blows icicles.
Futz with the thermostat, and yep, seems the T stat needs to be replaced, but aside from that, and it does work it is just funky, going down through the speeds, cold, cold with less air, cold with less air, off, back up and cold cold cold with varying amounts of air going through...
Only thing wrong with it was the lead acid deep cycle batteries the seller had in here were garbage, and the fuse block terminals were 30 years or crusty...
All in all, it is ready to go.
