Friday, April 8, 2016. Poor Serenity. We made a quick visit to her this afternoon and discovered that she has a dead starting battery. So off to Canadian Tire we went where we picked up a "Coleman 2.5 Watt Solar 12V Battery Maintainer". Serenity's battery still has a bit of juice in it but not enough to crank over her engine. We were hoping to take Serenity out for a drive, flush her water lines and dump her tanks before giving her a good spring cleaning. We just might have to wait a while or give her a jump but our car is a puny four cylinders compared to her ten. Can the car battery handle Serenity's cranking needs?
We'll drop by tomorrow and see how twelve hours of solar charging treated Serenity's battery. We'll bring along some battery cables just in case we decide to at least try and give her a boost.
David is longing to drive her for the remainder of the year and make ever larger circles out of Metro Vancouver.
That's all we have for now.
Happy Camping Folks!
