Power Queen Launches Group 27 Battery to Extend Off-Grid Runtime

RV PRO ISL

Power Queen has introduced the 12V 150Ah Group 27 Deep Cycle LiFePO4 Battery. The battery uses a standard BCI Group 27 form factor (approximately 308 × 170 × 211 mm) and delivers 150Ah capacity and 1,920Wh of energy. Compared with a typical 100Ah lead-acid battery, which offers about 50Ah of usable capacity, the new model provides roughly three times the usable energy without requiring additional installation space. It features Bluetooth 5.0 for real-time monitoring of state of charge, voltage, current, and temperature, along with a 150A battery management system that protects against high temperature, short circuit, overvoltage, overcurrent, undervoltage, and low-temperature conditions. Charging stops below 32°F and resumes at approximately 41°F; discharging stops below -4°F. The battery is designed for RVs, camper vans, and selected marine applications, such as powering trolling motors and fish finders.

Portable Solar Panels for RVs: Efficiency Analysis

GEYOTO Technology Limited has published a technical analysis of using portable solar panels for motorhomes and camper vans. The material covers power supply issues, comparison with fixed roof panels, and recommendations for integration with energy storage. It notes that a 100W panel generates 400–500 Wh per day, enough for a compressor refrigerator but not for high-power appliances. It also states that permanently mounting foldable panels on the roof leads to damage and voids the warranty.

Camper Fire at Kossuth County Fairgrounds Destroys Motor Home, Killing Family Cat

A fire at the Kossuth County Fairgrounds in Algona, Iowa, destroyed a 2005 Holiday Rambler motor home and killed a family cat on Thursday evening. The owners, Timothy and Kerissa Hall of Des Moines, escaped injury and saved their dog before the vehicle was engulfed in flames.

Seattle moves to restrict unpermitted RV street parking

The Seattle City Council has proposed limiting street parking for motorhomes and travel trailers without a permit to two hours and banning overnight parking from midnight to 6 a.m. The rules would take effect in 2027, with enforcement starting by July 31 of that year; violators could be towed without prior notice. The Vehicle Resident Assistance Program (VRAP), introduced by Councilmember Dan Strauss, allocates $5 million for outreach, safe parking lots, and vehicle storage. Permits would be limited to individuals identified in a one-time street survey and would allow parking in designated industrial areas for up to 72 hours. The first hearing is scheduled for the 11th, with a vote expected in mid-September.
