Best Prevost Newbie video yet - I was wondering if you were ever going to followup on the Parliament interview on power technology. This seems to have that covered pretty well. The guy knew his stuff - it will be a boon to the industry.
Thanks for the kind words. Stay tuned!
Way to ask the hard but fair questions. Good interview look forward to more.
Thanks Joe!
Great video.
Good stuff, say where can you find out where the higher end coaches have their shows. I've Google this but each time I get everything from 5th wheels to pop ups to high end coaches. Thanks Jimmy
The question I don't hear anything about solar or a static recharging component.
I guess that means I'll need to do an additional interview!
Okay, lithium batteries have been used in travel trailers in Europe for awhile now and are slowly coming to all types of RVs in the states. Lithium and solar panels is the key to making travel trailers self sustaining. As the battery and solar panel get cheaper more and more will be built. We already in 2020 are getting rid of the chemical fire hazard refrigerators on many RVs. The common guy is finally going to benefit from new technology.
Liberty and they are too evasive for me! You need not just power management, but active cooling/heating for batteries. I never got a straight answer from Frank, felt really uneasy. Too evasive in answers.
Would solar helpout at all???
They went to other manufacturers...what bout opening it to the ones that already own class A or fifth wheels. Etc.
Don’t these batteries have bad reputation for blowing up?
I was far too distracted by the man waving the giant novelty microphone to focus on whatever they were discussing. Something about batteries or microphones I think.
All lithium batteries are fire hazards. They get hot or they damaged or punctured they will cause a fire. Wonder how many motor homes will start catching fire in the future from these batteries. Look at the Samsung battery issue and the Boring 787 lithium battery fires. Can they guarantee no fire risk. Nope. I used rechargeable lithium ion batteries in many products and they get really hot. Even when in the charging they get hot and some even expand and blow the outer wrapper. Sorry the risk of fire is not for me.
the older fella is a lil annoying
I enjoy your content but DAAAAMN! Your habit of interrupting the person you are interviewing is ANNOYING! PLEASE STOP INTERRUPTING AND ALLOW THE PERSON TO ANSWER COMPLETELY!
You need to learn to LET THE PEOPLE YOU ARE INTERVIEWING TALK! I’ve watched half your videos already, and you aren’t the greatest interviewer...
i agree...he never stfu!
