The moth is likely a Polyphemus moth (Antheraea polyphemus). It's a large North American moth with a wingspan of up to six inches. These moths are known for their eye-like spots on their hindwings, which are thought to startle predators. And I am sooooo proud of you for isolating and removing your battery charger circuit. Glad you took my advice! 😊

I would suggest replacing the main breaker with a double switch breaker. Mark one side as main and the other as battery charger. You can get them in 3020 and 3015. I did this and it works great. When I power from my inverter, I turn off the battery charger.

You did good girl. The second time you flipped the main breaker, my TV went black, a second or two later a commercial came on. 😂What timing. The power comes from the breaker, so the disconnected black wire has no power. You have your power draw fixed. Great Job!!!

The Polyphemus moth (Antheraea polyphemus) is a member of the Saturniidae family, also known as giant silk moths. It's a large, butterfly-like moth with a wingspan of up to 6 inches and is widespread in continental North America, including subarctic Canada and the United States. Took your picture and circled it and found that

I would also suggest running off the AC breaker to a special outlet for electric heater if needed. It reduces the draw off the other circuits.

In one of your episodes you were talking about the dehumidifier making it warm in the trailer. If you get a combination roll around A/C with dehumidifier mode and fan that has a flexible exhaust tube you could exhaust the heat from the A/C and dehumidifier out the window, and have a fan mode to boot. You might want to see how the water drain would work. Mine doesn't have a bucket. Just a thought.

So my idea for an air conditioner was for a 24 volt unit like the Zero Breeze, which will dehumidify an exhaust it's heat through a hose to the outside. This runs on 24 volt batteries which can be charged with your panels. I have one of these for camping. There are two or three knockoffs also available now. Much more efficient than the dehumidifier, which is heating up your space.

Great job 😂🎉 You might want to label that wire that goes to the 110V AC to 12V DC converter and crappy battery charger. Instead of putting on the marette you could insert it into the air conditioner breaker that way, if you ever want run your interior 12V lights from the converter with the generator running you could flip on the air conditioning breaker. Anyway on to the next job, chalk up another success!

That was the first thing I realized when I started my power saving energy independence journey. I disconnected my inverter charger, since my house batteries are connected to my solar charger. it was amazing how much power draw that thing used, even without being hooked up to the batteries. The inverter charger is designed to charge the house batteries and run the 12V side of your RV. I started converting all of my electronics to DC only as much as possible, and am happy that my only AC needs are down to 3 appliances. 1) Rooftop AC that I converted to work like a house A/C, so it only turns on when my digital thermostat reaches the designed temperature. It also helps with humidity keeps my RV at around 25% to 30%. My AC is left on 24/7. (I do go up and clean the entire unit 2 - 3 times are year) 2) My 2.5 gallon water heater, and works great with reduced water pressure. I can take 10-15 minute hot showers, with constant running water. (Which is a long time for me). 3) Microwave. 4) Coffee maker. I am still hooked up to the grid so I have a power bill, but I reduced my bill from $250 a month to just $30. I can run my water heater, microwave, and coffee maker from my Ecoflow river 2 pro or delta 2, but I don't have enough solar to regenerate that much power, unless I pull it from my dc to dc converter in my car which is an EV that has a 14kwh battery. To be honest it's not really worth the hassle because at only $30 a month (a tank of fuel in a small pickup truck) , I can live with that. I use the upside app for cash back on gas purchases, so for every fill up on gas the cash back eats down my $30 a month electric bill.

YAAAAY!!!! We knew you could do it. Electricity is safe when everything is turned off and disconnected, but as an extra step ground out each terminal or wire momentarily before touching them. You'll not miss the sparks if there's power still there. Also in tight spaces use needle-nose pliers on the wire insulation rather than fingers to gain more working room. Hopefully your power problems are now all solved. That was a huge moth, and beautiful but things banging into the windows can be spooky. Where I was last set up I had a squirrel "alarm clock" as he trotted cross my roof every morning. I'm used to getting up early so no problem but I never quite got used to it. Things sound louder in a camper for sure! Enjoyed your fishing vid but forgot to comment. Once I fully retire I might take the sport up again. Stay cool Jenna 😎

Freaking out? Who us 👴 Proud of you, you figured it out. By the way, when external AC (shore power) is disconnected, there is no AC on the main breaker. When the main breaker is off, there is no AC on the branch circuits (the smaller breakers). Pesto and a loaf of Italian bread, life is good. Have a peaceful weekend.

Good job on sorting out that wiring! The humming you heard was the 120v to 12v transformer located underneath the wiring panel you were working in. (closer to the floor) It's probably for the better that transformer is no longer live as they had a tendency to become very hot and burn / scorch the floor underneath themselves. They suck power too as you found out.

Hey Jenna, you can go to harbor freight and get a device you plug in to a socket, then go to your panel and scan the breaker, it will beep when you get the right breaker. Then you can mark which breaker does what. I mentioned in a comment that normally all you need to do is flip off the breaker for the controller. At least, that is how my Jayco camper works, but mine is factory wired, yours by whomever owned it before you. In the future, you could try some rubber gloves and/or grab the wire with insulated pliers. There’s so many of us that want to help, but it is hard, not being there. Wish you had some other Nomadic friends close by, when you get in a pinch. Looking at the comments, looks like you were successful, give the cats a pet from me.

Hey Jenna, That was one massive moth, I've never seen one that big before. I have no idea what type it was but it's beautiful. Ramsey sure wanted his milk and Rory just likes to chill. That was a little nerve-racking watching you work on the electrical wiring. I guess if all the power is shut off, it is safe but I would still be a little worried, but I'm a worrier. Good for you for fixing the problem and fixing it yourself. That toad was just hanging out and he was totally camouflaged. I imagine when you started spraying your home brew weed killer, he hopped on outta there. That homemade weed killer is much safer to use than Round Up or Weed-B-Gone and is just as effective. You're pasta dish looked delicious, you really are a great cook. Ramsey had his sniffer working overtime, he wanted your supper too. I can't blame him, now I think I'll have some pasta for supper tonight. 🍴🍽 Take care, stay safe and have another cold one....Steve.

Here everything/everyone has all rock, no lawns since it is pretty much illegal here now. Rain in Vegas is very rare really, but every time it does, stuff grows up all over, and that stuff kills everything in a few hours, tedious, but works great. Dinner looked awesome, you always make the best and tastiest stuff!! Rory, chillin', Ramsey? I don't know dude. You could have at least reminded Jenna to plug that trailer in when she made the first pass on getting the battery charger off the circuit, i mean really! Your so demanding but so unhelpful!! 🤪 Stay cool up there!! We have been breaking all heat records down here, 122F on my indoor outdoor thermometer last saturday, so hot my AC compressor was kicking on and off as it couldn't keep up. I had to go spend on a 7000 BTU portable one at Lowes to help it out, and to have backup in case the main AC went down as me and the doggies would have died. We could have holed up in a bedroom and survived if it did. I need to get me a generator now in case they loose the power grid, i don't trust them at all on that front. Have fun, go fishin', and stay safe up there! 🥰🙏

There are some electronic probes you can get that are good to have, like a multi-meter, ciruit tracers, and voltage tester that might relieve your anxiety about electricity. The voltage tester you just hold it near a wire and it will light up if there is an AC voltage present, and you can single out the wire with the voltage. If you have a ground reference a multi-meter will let you measure that voltage, AC or DC. And a circuit tracer you can attach at like a plug and trace what circuit it is in your fusebox or the trail of the wire.

If the main power is off then you won't get a shock because there is no power to shock you, also you may need to remove the white cable that goes with the black one you removed because it is the neutral and can be energised, once removed there won't be any electric on either cable so you don't need to insulate the ends just move them out of the way of anything.

I know how you feel. I forget to turn on the power again to see if I corrected the problem.

If you can find a cheap used snow blade for your sise by side (?) push the gravel around to even drive out - weads come with it and will dry out -

Sometimes you have to buy tools - fewer toys - just different toys I guess

Hi Jenna, I saw an article on those moths, and I think I remember them being called Lantern Moths, or something like that. I just looked it up on my phone and I believe it is a variety of the Cecropia Moth. Maybe you can find more information on them. I'm on no sleep. I awoke to lightning and thunder with Layla running all over the house barking so I got up (and stayed up), to calm her down. Thank goodness you didn't get shocked with your investigation of the camper fuse box. I would have been delegating that job to one of many electrician buddies to keep myself from being shot across the room and lying in a fried heap upon the floor. When you walked into the shed to get the sprayer, I saw the fishing poles and thought you were going to take us fishing. Darn..., just not my lucky day. However, I'm glad your electrical problems are solved (for now). Hope you have a great vacation, even if you just spend it around the camper. Cheers!

nice job on the electrical. its always good to be wary of electrical stuff. caution keeps u safe. they make a tool in the electrical isle at home depot where it looks like a usb stick w points on it that will beep and tell you if a line or outlet is live for like 15 or 20 bucks. have u converted your camper lights to led bulbs or led fixtures? that will save a ton of energy too. them older bulbs they used are horribly energy inefficient. they make led bulbs that fit old fixtures at walmart but there kinda pricey for just 2.

Someone must have put one of your outlets on the same breaker as the controller and I’m reasonably sure that isn’t normal, but you figured it out, congratulations.
